vesicles
-

mitosis, organize organelles, tracks for transportation, and strutural support are functions of the ___________
cytoskeleton
-
If you reduce the activity of golgi bodies in a cell, what would you predict to be the outcome? 1) extra proteins will be added to the cell membrane 2) more vesicles will form for transport 3) there will be fewer proteins targeted for transport to the cell membrane 4) fewer ribosomes will be present in the cytoplasm
Answer: 3
-
What energetic role do protons play in both mitochondria and chloroplasts? 1) they are used to produce NAD+ 2) they are used to establish an electrochemical gradient 3) they are used to split water 4) they are used to transport electrons
Answer: 2 ( they produce NADH-- not NAD+)
-

Why does SEM microscopy have improved resolution?
they emit short electron wavelengths
-
SEM microscopes show ______ detail, while transmission electron microscopes show ______
surface; inside

transmission
-
You want to view surface details in a cell that is 10 microns in diameter. Which technique would give you the most detail? 1) dissecting microscopy 2) SEM 3) transmission electron microscopy 4) They can be seen with the naked eye
Answer: SEM (you want to see surface detail)
-
in ________ microscopy, the specimen itself IS the light source.
epifluoresence
-
in epifluoresence microscopy, GFP is hooked onto a gene of interest. It is then spread through _________ to allow observation
transduction > translation > and then expression!
-
Why is DNA considered antiparallel?
each strand runs in oppsite directions
-
Why are the ends of DNA named 3' or 5'?
carbon functional groups are connected to the phosphate backbone. Each end has separate # of Carbon linked (either 3 or 5)
-
A:T interactions have ____ H bonds while G:C interactions require ____ H bonds
2; 3
-
during gel electrophoresis, to which electrode does DNA migrate (+ or -)? Why?
DNA migrates to the + electrode... because DNA is negatively charged (opposites attract)
-
electron scanning and transmission microscopy have ______ resolution because accelerated electrons have a _____ wavelength compared to visible light.
HIGH; shorter
-
Light used to excite a fluorescent protein has ___ energy compared to the emitted light.
more
-
_______ is a polymer of nucleotides
DNA
-
____________ consist of a nucleobase, a sugar, and a phosphate group
nucleotides
-
The two types of nucleobases are _______________ and _______________
purines and pyrimidines
-
_______ nucleobase consists of Adenine and Guanine (AG). They have two carbon-ring structures as opposed to one.
Purine
-
__________ nucleobases consist of Cytosine, Uracil, and Thymine (CUT). They have one carbon-ring structures as opposed to two
pyrimidines
-
During correct DNA base pairing, nucleobases base-pair in a specific pattern: __________:_________
always pyrimidine: purine
-
which strand is held most tightly to its complimentary strand? 1) AAATTT 2) AAACCC 3) GGAAAA 4) GGGCCC
Answer: 4 (GGGCCC has more H bonds than AAATTT)
-
the most common DNA in nature is the right handed __ -DNA
B
-
DNA is a double helix because........
each strand is twisting itself, while it also twists around its complimentary strand
-
the ______ groove is the site for protein association
major (it has room for more access)
-
_-DNA is a left-handed double helix
Z
-
(enzymes) nucleases cut DNA... endonucleases cut DNA ___________, separating sticky and blunt
within the strand
-
