changes that lead to translocation of
the transporter substance are
caused by...


True regarding prokaryotic cells? - has a cell wall
- reproduce by binary fission
- do not exist as true...
- utilize double strands for hereditary material
- do NOT package their DNA so they do NOT need
histones


Evolution of the nucleus in - Segregation of DNA from other cellular
eukaryotic organisms has allowed... processes
- Increase the size of the DNA molecule


When a carbohydrate is oxidized it - electrons and energy ; Oxidation is the loss of
loses both ____ and ____. electrons and energy. The atom is left with a more
POSITIVE charge.


what is meant by high specificity - highly complementary physical shape
between molecules? - highly complementary electro chemical
properties


The histones used to package newly - added to DNA as it is emerging from the
replicated DNA replication machinery


mutations within DNA coding - usually results to deleterious changes in protein
regions... structure


DNA coding regions have important information,
any mutations on these regions are most of the
time negative (bad), so it will not be beneficial.

a protein secondary structure is - hydrogen bonds
maintained by
hydrogen bonds are the bonds between atoms


binding of a ligand to a specific - involves numerous weak noncovalent bonds
enzyme binding site...
it is not a permanent binding, so it CANNOT be
covalent, it has to be a weak bond in order for it to
be able to break or go back to its original form.

the following... Pyrimidines


Because its circular, replication of - Telomerase function
prokaryotic DNA does NOT require...
Telomerase is used to stabilize the ends of
Eukaryotic chromosomes which are linear. Since
prokaryotic DNA is not linear, it does NOT need
telomerase to stabilize its ends.
