31
Q

confocal laser scanning and fluro

A

thin samples. fluorescent tagging of living cells. causes artifacts. used for chromosomes. can use with laser only

32
Q

scanning electron micro

A

surface of objects with 3D res. dead only. moneyyy and prep intensive (must be dehydrated)

33
Q

cryosem

A

dead only. frozen NOT dry. cause artifacts

34

3d model using TEM,

36
Q

centrifugation

A

separates liquid cell into layers

37
Q

centrifugation layer separation of cells

A
  1. dense: nuclei
  2. mitochondria/ chloroplasts. lysosomes. peroxisomes
  3. microsomes and small stuff
  4. ribosomes/ virus
38
Q

competitive inhibition km and v max

A

km is raised (inefficient binding) (higher curve) but v max (plateau) still reached

39
Q

non-competitive inhibition km and v max

A

km unchanged (binding same). but max is lower

40
Q

small km means

A

enzyme requires small amount of substrate to be saturated. therefore efficient
