Description of a pulse chase and its usage.

What is a pulse chase?

The conversion of G-actin to F-actin.

What is the difference between G-actin and F-actin?

Description of stabilizing the microtubule/microfilament in an actin assembly and a microtubule polymerization.

In an actin assembly and a microtubule polymerization, when an ATP/GTP cap is formed, what is meant by "stabilizing" the microtubule or microfilament? Does it stop polymerization and prevent the microtubule or microfilament from continuing to grow or does it just prevent it from falling apart as easily as if the cap was not the ...continues

The study of mitosis and meiosis-how scientists study it.

What are some of the methods that scientists have used to study the components, processes, and outcomes of cell division?

More questions--but easy.

For the first question, I thought PCR might have something to do with it, but it seems to restrictive. I can't think of any other descriptive techniques. can anyone suggest any? For question 2, it look simple but when a deletion occurs does it happen to the top and bottom strand? I was just wondering because that changes the ...continues

The Relative Sizes of Cells, and Cellular Components are noted.

Various types of cells and cellular components are listed below. Based on the diameters of the cells and components (given in parentheses), calculate the number of each that you would expect to find in a single layer that is 0.7 mm in diameter. Assumption: each entity is spherical. Formulas: area of a circle = pi*r^2. pi=3 ...continues

Redox reactions in cell respiration

What are the two different redox reactions in cell respirations? Indicate which molecules if any have been oxidized and which have been reduced.

Understanding cell respiration, gylcolysis, krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.

Cell respiration has three parts: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. Where in the cell is each found, the molecule(s) that enter each, the molecules at the end of each, and the number of ATPs harvested from each?
