mock Flashcards
respiration is an example of a metabolic pathway in organisms. what metabolic pathway is in question
catabolic
type of animal cell that doesn’t have mitochondria
•red blood cell
stage of aerobic respiration that doesn’t occur in the mitochondrion
•glycolysis
•occurs in cytosol
control substance in test for reducing sugar
water
control colour at end in test for reducing sugar
blue
gel used to trap the enzyme when immobilizing an enzyme
sodium alginate
how make gel insoluble when immobilizing enzymes
calcium chloride
pathogen
disease causing organism.
antibiotic
produced by microorganisms to kill or stop the growth of other microorganisms
bio processing
using microorganisms to form products
bioreactor
a vessel in which products are made by microorganisms
shape of dna molecule
double helix
heridity
passing on of characteristic from ive generation to the next
dna profiling
generating a pattern of bands from a dna sample
genetic screening
test to show presence of a gene
step 1 dna profiling
1: Release DNA from cells and use PCR to amplify the sample.
step 2 dna profiling
2: Cut DNA into fragments: Restriction enzymes are used to cut the DNA into smaller fragments. They only cut at specific places.
step 3 dna profiling
3: Separate the fragments: DNA is negatively charged. Gel electrophoresis can use an electric current to separate the fragments based on size
step 4 dna profiling
pattern is analysee
use of dna profiling
You can use DNA profiling to test for certain diseases, for solving crimes and for maternity and paternity tests.
why twins have same dna profile
both have same genes
structural differences of DNA and RNA
•dna is double stranded/rna is single stranded
•dna has thymine/rna has uracil
translation events (protein synthesis)
•mRNA goes to a ribosome
•tRNA molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome
•tRNA binds to mRNA
•peptide bond forms
•chain folds
•forms protein
sex linkage
•a gene present on the X or Y chromosome
heterozygous
•when two alleles for a trait are different
genotype
•the genetic make up
advantage using ATP as energy source
•ATP releases energy in suitable quantities
•energy easily recycled
•energy easily released
krebs cycle products
•ATP
•CO2
•NADH
