beta-oxidation correct answer: enzymes repeatedly split off pairs of they hydrogenated carbon atoms that make up a fatty acid and join each pair to coenzyme A to form acetyl-CoA Chloroplasts correct answer: light harvesting structures found in photosynthetic eukaryotes; synthesize a few polypeptides compare and contrast archaeal flagella with bacterial flagella correct answer: archaeal are about half as thick as bacteria; not hollow; lack a central channel; flow together; powered by ATP...

Cytology the study of cells Robert Hooke - observed cork could float - discovered a honeycomb-like structure in a cork slice using a primitive compound microscope - only saw cell walls as this was dead tissue - coined the term "cell" for these individual compartments he saw Two types of microscopes: 1. Light Microscope 2. Electron Microscope Light Microscope - light is focused on specimen by a glass condenser lens - the image is magnified by an objective lens and an ocular lens - proj...

IB Biology 1.2 Latest Update Already Passed Resolution Resolution is defined as the shortest distance between two points that can be distinquished Explain why electron microscopes have a better resolution than light microscopes because the wavelength of the electrons is thousands of times smaller than the wavelength of light. Ultrastructure all the structures of a biological specimen that are at least 0.1 nm in their smallest dimension Something that electron microscopes can se...

Cytology the study of cells Cell Theory all living things are composed of cells and come from living cells Robert Hooke one of the first to use microscope, observing a piece of cork from the stem of plants, where he found chambers arising in the idea of a cell. Light Microscope takes pictures of large atoms. nucleus, not electrons Scanning Electron Microscope electrons are reflected off of a specimen and are analyzed by a computer to create a 3D image Transmission Electron Microscope Mic...

Prophase I - crossing-over occurs between tetrads Metaphase I - Paired homologous chromosomes line up across the center of the cell Anaphase I - Spindle fibers pull each homologous chromosome pair toward an opposite end of the cell Telophase - A nuclear membrane forms around each cluster of chromosomes and cytokinesis follows, forming two new cells Prophase II - Chromosomes consist of two chromatids, but they do not pair to form tetrads Telophase II - A nuclear membrane forms around each ...
