single-celled prokaryotes that were classified in the bacteria domain naming them the Archaeabacteria. Until just recently the scientific community decided that these special creatures belonged in their very own domain. The archaea resembled the eukaryotes more than the bacteria even though they were still a prokaryotic organism. So these micro-organisms had to be moved into its own domain. These organisms are what many biologists call the “Life Extremists”. They are found in places that…
For my 3D course cluster, I am taking BIOL336 Genetics, PHIL130 Ethics and HIST231 Understanding Islam in Historical Perspective. As a biology major my favorite subject is genetics and I am taking it as a major requirement. One thing that is frustrating is only taking major and minor requirements with limited space for classes that I am interested in. These 3D classes allow me to explore subjects that I am interested in. I want to take ethics and explore different moral obligations and…
marine organisms throughout their lifecycle. Marine invertebrates may comprise more than 30% of all animal species and are commonly associated with distinct microbial communities (Otero-Gonzáles et al., 2010). Bacteria, archaea and single-celled eukaryotes may act as larval settlement cues, symbionts or pathogens to a range of marine invertebrate phyla. Bacteria quickly colonize available surfaces and form biofilms (Huang et al., 2007). Marine bacteria transition from planktonic organisms to…
Possible Modifications of Central Dogma of molecular Biology Introduction The central dogma of molecular biology is describes the transfer of genetic information within a biological system and was first stated by Francis Crick in 1956. The central dogma is the flow of genetic information as ‘’DNA makes the RNA and RNA makes the protein.’’All biological cells with few exceptions in some follow this rule. This flow takes place through three fundamental processes: replication, transcription and…
The checkpoints in the cell cycle There are several checkpoints the eukaryote cell cycle that controls the cells from proceeding from one to the next phase of the cell cycle. The point where the cells start to enter the cell cycle is at the G1 checkpoint, which is also known as the restriction checkpoint. At this point, the Retinoblastoma interacts with the E2F, which is the transcription factor to make cyclin E causes the E2F to be inhibited upon interaction. Cells with damaged DNA get…
that their known for. The black panther’s top speed that it can run is 71 mph, and weighs in a range from 79lb- 350lb. They like to hunt at night so that they are camouflaged and can’t be seen by their pray or their predators. The panther Domain is Eukaryote, it’s kingdom is Animalia, and class is mammalia. Some behaviors that the panther has is that it loves water. Sometimes photographers have found them swimming in the water and hunting in the water for food to eat. They have also been found…
In eukaryotes, this process is only found at cytosine residues, and has been shown to be a vital component for many processes, including embryonic development in mammals. This particular link was first seen in a study in which researchers attempted to breed mice…
from the two parents. The law of independent assortment states that genes assort independently on separate chromosomes during the formation of gametes, and recombination by crossing-over. Sex-linkage is the linkage of genes with sex chromosomes of eukaryotes. These genes which controls the phenotypic characteristics are called sex-linked genes. Morgan found that the gene code for eye color of Drosophila was on X chromosomes, and it was transmitted along with the sex so the gene is sex-linked…
Describe, briefly two cellular reactions that involve ATP hydrolysis (you will probably find the answer more quickly on Google than in your book). ATP is simply a renewable resource which is actually rejuvenated when adenosine diphosphate is mixed with a phosphate group. On the other hand, ATP hydrolysis is basically a method used by the human body to be able to release energy chemically to some other body parts in order for life to be sustained. In the process, ATP is actually converted…
There were three significant events that happen at the beginning of microbiology period. The first event was the discovery of cells. A scientist name Robert Hooke was the first one to watch cells when he looked into a thin slice of cork, which we now use for closing wine, through a microscope that wasn’t as powerful but allowed him to see cells. Hooke then made a better microscope that had two sets of lenses which allowed him to see individual cells. His discovery started the beginning of the…
