5082939179 | Tracheids | Specialized cells that conduct water in angiosperms | 2 | |
5082944781 | Carpel | The female reproductive organ of a flower, consisting of an ovary, a stigma, and usually a style. It may occur singly or as one of a group | 3 | |
5082983454 | Primary Structure | The first level of protein structure; the specific sequence of amino acids making up a polypeptide chain | 4 | |
5083010479 | Secondary Structure | The second level of protein structure; the regular local patterns of coils or folds of a polypeptide chain | 5 | |
5083044557 | Tertiary Structure | The third level of a protein structure; the overall, three-dimensional shape of a polypeptide due to interactions of the R groups of the amino acids making up the chain | 6 | |
5083093688 | Quaternary Structure | The fourth level of a protein structure; the shape resulting from the association of two or more polypeptide subunits | 7 | |
5083152882 | Carbohydrate | Member of the class of biological molecules consisting of monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides | 8 | |
5083071721 | Megaspore | the larger of the two kinds of spores produced by some ferns | 9 | |
5083181987 | Estuary | the tidal mouth of a large river, where the tide meets the stream | 10 | |
5102451902 | Polypeptide | A linear organic polymer consisting of a large number of amino-acid residues bonded together in a chain, forming part of a protein molecule. | 11 | |
5102715165 | G1 phase | The cell grows physically larger, copies organelles, and makes the molecular building blocks it will need in later steps | 12 | |
5102722849 | S Phase | The cell synthesizes a complete copy of the DNA in its nucleus and duplicates the centrosome | 13 | |
5102736377 | G2 Phase | The cell grows more, makes proteins and organelles, and begins to reorganize its contents in preparation for mitosis. | 14 | |
5102760710 | Cytokinesis | The cytoplasm of the cell is split in two, making two new cells | 15 | |
5102775876 | Mitosis | The nuclear DNA of the cell condenses into visible chromosomes and is pulled apart by the mitotic spindle Four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. | 16 | |
5105521516 | Glycolysis | Occurs in the cytoplasmic fluid of the the cell, that is, outside the organelles, begins respiration by breaking glucose into two molecules of a three-carbon compound called pyruvate | 17 |
