Document Summary

Living cells are bounded by membranes: phospholipids. Water, inorganic ions and a wide array of relatively small molecules make up for 75% to. Three: bacteria, archaea, eukaryota, list the two types of cells. Prokaryotic: lack defined nucleus, nucleoid, cytoplasm, inner membrane, cell wall, periplasmic space, and outer membrane, simple internal organization. Site of dna replication and the synthesis of ribosomal rna, mrna and a large variety of noncoding rna: 2. Pax6 is a protein encoded by pax6 gene. 2d gel electrophoresis; used in the separation of proteins. Gene array technology; used in the study of nucleic acid like dna: chemistry of life. There are four key concepts: molecular complementarity, chemical building blocks, chemical equilibrium, chemical bond energy, weak vs strong interactions. Attraction between positively charged ion (a cation) and a negatively charged ion (an anion) Ionic interactions do not have a fixed geometry orientation. The electrostatic field around an ion is uniform in all directions.
