Hydroxyl Group(-OH) Polar Hydrophilic Carboxyl Group(COOH) Polar Hydrophilic Weak Acid Amino Group(NH2) Polar Hydrophilic Weak Base Phosphate Group(PO3) Polar Hydrophilic Acid (sometimes as PO4) Carbonyl Group(C=O) Polar Hydrophilic includes ketones (R-C=O) and aldehydes (H-C=O) Methyl Group(CH3) Nonpolar Hydrophobic Starchalpha glucose molecule polymer stores energy in plant cells

Behaviorhow organisms cope with their environment - some behave in programmed way - some behave due to learning 4 types of behavior1. imprinting 2. classical conditioning 3. operant conditioning 4. insight Instinctinnate, unlearned behavior; could be triggered by a "releaser" - bees know their role in the hive Releasertriggers an instinct - robin sees the tuft of feathers induces fighting response

Alzheimer's disease- chronic neurodegenerative (loss of structure, function, and potentially death of neurons) disease - memory loss - result of deregulated apoptosis, as apoptosis itself leads to programmed cell death cancer- result of uncontrolled cell proliferation Parkinson's disease- neurodegenerative (loss of structure, function, and potentially death of neurons) disease - motor control loss - cell atrophy & death --> apoptosis Turner Syndrome- aneuploidy (specifically a ...

Describe Cell Theory - a.All living things are composed of cells b.Cells can only develop from pre-existing cells c.Cells are the smallest unit of life d.Cells carry their genetic information in the form of DNA (T/F) Electron microscopy can be used for the study of live specimens. - False . What type of laboratory method can be used to spate cells without destroying them? - Filtration, Centrifuge

Cell Theory: 1. all living things are composed of cells 2. cell is the basic fundamental unit of life 3. chemical reactions of life take place inside the cell 4. cells arise from pre-existing cells 5. cells carry genetic information in the form of DNA - passed from parent to daughter cell nucleolus - dense structure in the nucleus where ribosomal RNA synthesis occurs Endoplasmic Reticulum - network of membrane- enclosed spaces invloved in the transport of materials throughout the cell, p...

DAT Biology Carotenoids lipid derivatives, produce pigments in plants and animals , An accessory pigment, either yellow or orange, in the chloroplasts of plants. By absorbing wavelengths of light that chlorophyll cannot, carotenoids broaden the spectrum of colors that can drive photosynthesis.
