Microscope parts |
|
|
|
What are acids and bases |
|
|
|
What are buffers? |
|
|
|
Ph formula |
H20+CO2 -> H2CO3->H+HCO3 |
|
|
Benedict's test |
Benedict's reagent detects reducing sugars by color change from blue to orange, rust, or greenish color. |
Reducing sugars indicate a free carboxyl group |
|
Starch test |
Lugol's iodine (iodine potassium iodide) detects starch by changing from amber to a dark purple/blue color |
|
|
Biuret test |
Biuret reagent detects proteins by changing from blue to lavender color. |
|
|
Hypertonic |
Water drawn out of the cell (called crenation |
|
|
Hypotonic |
Water drawn into cell (can cause Lysis, or rupturing of the cell) |
|
|
Enzymes |
Are protein catalysts. A catalyst lowers the activation energy, allowing reactions to proceed at a faster rate. |
|
|
Substrates |
Specific reactant molecules that bind to a specific part of a protein called the active site, where they are altered to help them eventually turn into a product. |
Substrates ---> products |
|
Diffusion/osmosis |
|
|
|
Hyper/iso/hypotonic |
|
|
|
Plant cells |
|
|
|
Cellular respiration |
|
|
|
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) |
|
|
|
PCR step 1 |
|
|
|
PCR step 2 |
|
|
|
PCR step 3 |
|
|
|
What are restriction enzymes |
|
|
|
Significance of restrictive enzymes |
|
|
|
How restriction enzymes work |
|
|
|
How gel electrophoresis works |
|
|
|
Brownian motion |
Temperature of fluid determines velocity of atoms. As a result the atoms collide with other atoms, resulting in the motion of the molecules. |
|
|
Solutions |
Solutes dissolve into solvent |
|
|
Nucleotides |
Composed 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate, and a nitrogen-containing base. |
