Document Summary

What is meant by catalyst: what is the function of dna / rna, what is the connection between oxidation/reduction and loss/gain of electron, list examples of bacterial morphology. Give examples of these microorganisms: define chemiosmosis theory, compare cell envelope of g- vs. g+ (differences in cell wall/cell membrane/etc, give examples of polymers/monomers/building blocks/how they are put (bond) together/where in cell they are found. What are their uses/functions: list the importance of protein molecules. What is the significance of fluorescent microscopy: what are the differences between photosynthesis and other forms of metabolism, define osmosis, hypotonic, isotonic, and hypertonic solutions, how temperature and ph may affect the cell. Define max, min and optimum growth temperature: draw a typical growth curve and label different phases of growth. What are the differences between anabolism and catabolism: where in the cell components of electron transport system are located. What most hormones are made of: describe different variation oxygen requirements.
