GUARANTEED PASS
Active Immunity - ✔ANASWER✔-Immunity produced by the
person's own immune system. This type of immunity can be
,brought about by a natural infection or by a vaccine. It is usually
long lasting.
Adhesion - ✔ANASWER✔-A sticking together of substances; the
molecular attraction exerted between the surfaces of bodies in
contact.
Adenine - ✔ANASWER✔-A component of nucleic acids, energy-
carrying molecules such as ATP, and certain coenzymes.
Chemically, it is a purine base.
Agarose - ✔ANASWER✔-A polysaccharide obtained from
seaweed that is used as the supporting medium in gel
electrophoresis.
Allele - ✔ANASWER✔-Alternative versions of a gene that produce
distinguishable phenotypic effects.
Alpha-globin - ✔ANASWER✔-The poly-peptide chain of
hemoglobin that is designated as alpha.
Amino Acid - ✔ANASWER✔-An organic molecule possessing both
the carboxyl and amino acid groups. Amino acids serve as the
monomers of proteins.
,Amino Group - ✔ANASWER✔-A functional group that consists of
a nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms.
Amplification - ✔ANASWER✔-A usually massive replication of
genetic material and especially of a gene or DNA sequence.
Angiography - ✔ANASWER✔-The radiographic visualization of
the blood vessels after injection of a radiopaque substance in the
form of an angiogram.
Amylase - ✔ANASWER✔-Any of a group of enzymes (as
amylopsin) that catalyze the hydrolysis of starch and glycogen or
their intermediate hydrolysis products.
Anemia - ✔ANASWER✔-A condition in which the blood is
deficient of red blood cells, in hemoglobin, or in total volume.
Antibiotic - ✔ANASWER✔-Substance produced by or a semi-
synthetic substance derived from a microorganism and able in
dilute solution to inhibit or kill another microorganism.
, Antibiotic Resistance - ✔ANASWER✔-Resistance to one or more
antibiotics, usually due to additional genetic information.
Antibody - ✔ANASWER✔-Any of a large number of proteins of
high molecular weight that are produced by specialized B cells
after stimulation by an antigen and act specifically against the
antigen in an immune response, that are produced abnormally by
some cancer cells, and that typically consist of four subunits
including two heavy chains and two light chains
Antigen - ✔ANASWER✔-Any substance foreign to the body that
invokes an immune response either alone or after forming a
complex with a larger molecule (as a protein) and that is capable
of binding with a product (an antibody or a T cell) of the immune
response.
Antiseptic - ✔ANASWER✔-A substance that inhibits the growth or
action of microorganisms especially in or on living tissue.
Antiviral drugs - ✔ANASWER✔-Drugs that act, are effective, or are
directed against viruses.
