Document Summary
Protein synthesis: transcription (dna to mrna, rna polymerase moves down dna and copies a complimentary strand (mrna) a. i. Initiation, elongation, termination: 5" and 3" cap, poly a tail, mrna moves into cytoplasm, translation (mrna to protein, mrna moves through ribosome (where we make proteins) a. i. Every three letters encodes for a specific amino acid b. trna attaches amino acid b. i. Bonds to ribosome and drops off amino acid then flows out into cytoplasm to grab more b. ii. Aug (methionine start sequence), acg (thr), etc. Plant structure: dicots vs. monocots, dicot two cotyledons (dandelion) a. i. Petals in 4,5: monocot one cotyledon (grass) b. i. Net like root system: phytotomy, life below and above ground a. i. Shoots nodes (where leaves attach) and internodes (in between nodes: tissues, dermal epidermis, periderm a. i. Use: protection and prevent loss of water a. ii. Guard cells stomata (intake of h20 and co2) a. iii.
