Metabolism Integrated network of all the biochemical reactions of life.
The cell membrane is also known as the... ..plasma membrane and is a barrier controlling exit and entry to and from the cytoplasm.
What is the storage carbohydrate in plant and animal cells? Plant cells - Starch Animal Cells - Glycogen
Define Chromatid, Chromosome and Chromatin Chromatid - One of two copies of a chromosome after it has replicated. Chromosomes - Long threads of DNA which are linear sequences of genes packaged with protein. Chromatin - A nuclear protein material in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell during interphase.
Gene A specific length of the DNA double helix which codes for a protein.
The potential of each cell to specialise in any number of different ways is called.. Totipotency
Facilitated Diffusion Diffusion across membranes facilitated by molecules in the membrane.
Give an example of facilitated diffusion. In mitochondria, the movement of ADP into and the exit of ATP from it.
