Chapter 1 Flashcards
Properties of Life
Order, Regulation, metabolism, evolutionary adaptations, response to environment, reproduction, growth and development.
Emergent Properties
Properties that are not present at the preceding level, complexity increases
Systems Biology
Model Dynamic behavior of whole biological systems, based on system’s parts.
Eukaryota cell
internal membranes organells
Prokaryotic Cell
DNA is not sep. NO NUCLEUS
Gene Expression
Information in a gene directs the production of a cellular product.
Genome
The entire Library of Genetic instruction that an organism inherits
Genomics
Comparing Genes of Different Species
Bioformatics
Use of technology to analyze and collect data
Negative Feedback
Accumulation of an end product of a process slows that production
Positive Feedback
End Product Speeds up its own production
Domain Bacteria
Most Diverse Prokaryotes
Domain Archaea
Extremeness Prokaryotes
Domain Eukarya
Plantae Fungi Protists, Animalia
Natural Selection
Darwin’s Mechanism of evolutionary adaption,
The natural Environment “selects” for the propagation of certain traits in a POP.
