Big Biology Vocabulary Part 2

A type of cellular respiration which requires oxygen; carried out by eukaryotes; very efficient (produces 38 molecules of ATP)

• Anaerobic Respiration
• Apaxic Respiration
• Autosomal Respiration
• Aerobic Respiration

A single nucleotide is replaced by a different nucleotide; this type of mutation does not result in a frameshift mutation

• Substitution Mutation
• Deletion Mutation
• Insertion Mutation
• Multiplication Mutation

A single nucleotide is removed from a sequence of DNA; results in a frameshift mutation that can drastically change the protein

• Substitution Mutation
• Deletion Mutation
• Insertion Mutation
• Multiplication Mutation

A single nucleotide is added to a sequence of DNA; results in a frameshift mutation that can drastically change the protein

• Substitution Mutation
• Deletion Mutation
• Insertion Mutation
• Multiplication Mutation

Mutation that shifts the "reading" frame of the genetic message by inserting or deleting a nucleotide

• Substitution Mutation
• Deletion Mutation
• Insertion Mutation
• Frameshift Mutation

Structures that have evolved separately in two unrelated species; example: the wing of a bird and the wing of an insect

• Homologous Structures
• Analogous Structures
• Vestigial Structures
• Triploblastic Structures

Starting materials in a biochemical reaction; decrease in concentration as the reaction proceeds

• Reactants
• Products
• Enzymes
• Bonding Loci

Ending materials in a chemical reaction; increases in concentration as the reaction proceeds

• Reactants
• Products
• Enzymes
• Bonding Loci

Energy needed to get a reaction started; enzymes lower this to make the reaction happen faster/more efficiently

• Activation Energy
• Passivation Energy
• Department of Energy
• Beginning Energy

Environmental conditions that can affect the activity of an enzyme

• Temperature and pH
• Balance and Rhythm
• Key and Chord Structure
• Discord and Disharmony
