cell cycle

(majority of cycle) interphase: G1, S (copying of genome), G2 phases Mitosis: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase Cytokinesis

membrane functions

- barrier - organization - (active/passive) transport - reaction/response (receptors) - help retain the integrity of the cell

measuring co2 in aerobic respiration experiment steps

- make carbonic acid (basically seltzer) with H2O and CO2 representing respiration - add phenolphthalein which remains colorless since its acidic -The solutions are then titrated with NaOH to the pink end-point matching the control. The volume of NaOH needed to reach the end-point indicates the relative amounts of dissolved CO2 produced during respiration

ATP used to do cellular work such as

- transport materials - synthesize new compounds - reproduce - contract muscles - remove wastes

Chromatography experiment

-The paper with chlorophyll bits applied is dipped into a solvent, the solvent mixture travels up the paper and separates the different pigments according to solubility in solvent, each pigment is represented by changes in tinges to the original green We can identify the pigment according to the specific distance travelled up the paper/furthest point solvent travelled based on the constant translating to chlorophyll a and b, carotenoids, and xanthophylls

-dominant, making straight hairline recessive -albinism is homozygous recessive -free earlobe is dominant, attached earlobe is recessive -recessive

Most enzymes in humans, such as the protein-degrading enzyme trypsin, work best at the temperature and pH of about

C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6O2 (oxygen) ---→

6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP (+ Heat)

all individuals have one of four blood types:

A (-B), B (-A), AB (Ø), & O -(AB) Blood groups are determined by the presence of antigens on the surfaces of their red blood cells. If antigen A or B is present, no antibodies against this antigen are produced. Meaning, if a person has antigen A on his or her blood cells, then the person has type A blood and possesses blood antibodies that collect type B blood cells.

Graafian follicle

A large, mature, ovarian follicle with a well-developed antrum and a secondary oocyte inside. Ovulation/fertilization of the oocyte occurs from this type of follicle once the follicle reaches the membrane wall, it releases the matured oocyte outside of the ovary and the follicle itself eventually degenerates, however the secondary oocyte only becomes an ovum once it fertilizes with the sperm

Huntington's disease

A mental disorder involving uncontrollable, involuntary muscle movements. The disease occurs relatively late in life; therefore, many affected individuals bear children before they realize that they are carriers. Unlike most other genetic diseases, Huntington's disease is inherited as a dominant trait; people who are homozygous recessive (hh) do not have the disease, and people who are heterozygous (Hh) or homozygous dominant (HH) have the disease.

Fermentation releases CO2 as a byproduct producing bubbles in the solution, so we can measure each organic molecule's capacity to ferment so MgSO4 and Pyruvate bubbled the most

Increasing temperature on membrane effect

First rising temps makes the lipids more fluid allowing for betacyanin to escape However above 40C (104F) the membrane becomes denatured, increasingly leaking out red pigment Plateauing at about 60C If below freezing (0C) water can crystallize to ice and expand because of hydrogen bond alignment often rupturing or cracking membranes However extreme heat is generally more damaging to membranes

_______________ ___________________ are the maternal and paternal copies of the same chromosome—say, chromosome number 16. _____________ ________________ are the two replicas of a single chromosome held together at their centromeres by cohesion proteins aka a kinetochore. So they can be the same thing when ______________ _________________ haven't joined together yet.

Homologous chromosomes; sister chromatids

beet experiment

In two procedures you will subject beet cells to a range of temperatures and organic solvents and determine which treatments stress and damage the membranes the most. If stress damages the membranes, BETACYANIN will leak through the tonoplast and plasma membrane. This leakage from the stressed beet will color the surrounding water red. Thus, you can --MEASURE MEMBRANE DAMAGE-- by measuring the intensity of color resulting from a treatment

The particulate theory 3 parts

Mendel's particulate theory states that (1) inherited characters are determined by particular factors (aka genes), (2) these factors occur in pairs (i.e., genes occur on maternal and paternal homologous chromosomes), and (3) when gametes form, these genes segregate so that only one of the homologous pair is contained in a particular gamete.

seminiferous tubules

Narrow, coiled tubules that is the site of sperm production in which contain spermatogonia

Rh factor

Refers to the presence or absence of the Rh antigen on red blood cells.

Law of Segregation vs Law of Independent Assortment

Segregation- each gamete has an equal chance of possessing either pair of homologous chromosomes, giving each gamete a 50% chance of a specific allele distributed to the gamete to be dominant or allele BUT random assortment - alleles themselves on nonhomologous or different chromosomes will be distributed randomly into gametes, so even though one of the chromatids which possesses two recessive alleles, splits and is given to form a gamete, the genome isn't settled like that, the chromatid given over can possess either side of randomly distributed alleles from the parent cell

spermatogenesis vs oogenesis

Spermatogenesis: production of four mature sperm Oogenesis: process produces one haploid egg (ovum) and two to three polar, only ova with X chromosomes are produced

a) (aster) astral microtubules b) polar (nonkinetochore) microtubules c) kinetochore microtubules

The astral microtubules emanate away from the region between the poles, bracing against the cell membrane. The polar microtubules project into the region between the two poles connecting to themselves. The kinetochore microtubules are attached to the kinetochores of sister chromatids.

some cells may appear pink due to water soluble pigments called anthocyanins (similar to betacyanin). By warming the slide of elodea (plant leaf) with intense light for about 10 min, you may notice movement of the chloroplasts. This movement is called cytoplasmic streaming, or cyclosis.
