Percent increase formula - ANSWER (change/original number) x 100%
Circumfrence of a circle formula - ANSWER 2 x pie x radius OR diameter x pie
Commensal relationship - ANSWER form of a symbiotic relationship, two organisms live
in close association with each other. One benefits while the other is neither harms or bene-
fites. +/0 relationship
Polysome - ANSWER cluster of ribosomes
Notochord - ANSWER a semi-rigid rod in the dorsal part of all chordates, this remains as a
semi-rigid chord, although in highrt chordates it is seen only in the embryo and as a vestigial
organ.
-a flexible material made out of similar material to cartilage. If a species has notochord it is
by definition it is a chordate. Ex: fish, birds, mammals
Enzymes - ANSWER proteins, typically work best at ph7.2
Electron transport chain - ANSWER directly produces the ph gradient by pumping pro-
tons out of the mitochondrial matrix. The proton gradient is used to make ATP.
Closed circuit - ANSWER has continuity and allows current to flow in it
3
, As you go from left to right across a period, what happens to electrons - ANSWER elec-
trons are added one at a time, the electrons of the outermost shell experience an increasing
amount of nuclear attraction becoming closer and more tightly bound to the nucleus.
Voltage drop - ANSWER happens as current passes through a resistance, represents an
energy loss, this energy is usually dissipated in the form of heat.
What temperature does water at sea level boil - ANSWER 212F, 100C, 373K
Logy - ANSWER lethargic, lacking in energy or vitality, mental and physical slowness
Gametes - ANSWER sex cells (sperm and egg), humans have 23 chromosomes in each sex
cell (made of 22 autosomes), 1n, haploid because they have half as many as regular human
cells. In a regular cell (not sex cell) there is a total of 46 chromosomes in each cell or a set of
23.
Regular cells - ANSWER 2n, or diploid a set of 23 chromosomes or 46 chromosomes
Sexual reproduction simplified - ANSWER a sperm which is haploid (n) with 23 chromo-
somes combines with an egg which is also haploid (n) with 23 chromosomes to form a zy-
gote (2n) which creates 46 chromosomes or diploid then it forms an embryo which turns
into a fetus.
Autosomes - ANSWER In a diploid or 2n human cell there are 46 chromosomes. 2 sex
cells (one from mom, one from dad) join with 44 autosomes (23 from mom 23 from dad).
Mom and dad have identical cells called autosomes. *These are essentially chromosomes
that both mom and dad posess that are not determinants of the zygotes gender (the sex
cells do this).
Mom has 22 autosomes, and dad has 22 that each will donate.
In addition to the 22 chromsomes that mom and dad will both donate, 1 more chromosome
has to be added to make 23 chromosomes in total This is the sex chromsome which deter-
mines the sex of the baby. These sex cells are not identical like autosomes because there is
