Quantitative Growth Equations - ANSWERS- Nt = 2*N0
- Nt = 2^t * N0
Using Redox Tower - ANSWERS- Locate redox couples representing each half reaction
- Record reduction potential and multiple oxidation reaction by -1
- Add reduction potential of each half reaction to obtain total potential of reaction
Exponential Growth Equation - ANSWERS- Nt=N0*e^kt
- Nt=N0*2^n
- g = ln(2)/k
- g = t/n
Exponential Growth Variables - ANSWERS- Nt = number of cells at end of growth period
- N0 = number of cells at the beginning of growth period
- k = specific growth rate, instantaneous growth rate
- t = time (duh)
- n = number of generations passed during growth peropd
- g = generation time
Redox Reaction - ANSWERS- A chemical reaction involving the transfer of one or more electrons from
one reactant to another
- Also called oxidation-reduction reaction
Oxidation Half Reaction - ANSWERS- Half of a redox reaction where loss of electrons occurs
, Reduction Half Reaction - ANSWERS- Half of a redox reaction where gain of electrons occurs
E0 - ANSWERS- Reduction Potential
- Amount of energy obtained from a specific redox reaction
- Measured in volts
Cell Cycle: G1 - ANSWERS- Cells accomplish most of their growth
- Increase in size and protein production
Cell Cycle: S - ANSWERS- DNA Synthesis
- DNA Replication
Cell Cycle: G2 - ANSWERS- Rapid cell growth and protein synthesis
- Cell preparing for mitosis
Chromosome Replication - ANSWERS- Occurs in S phase; cohesin present one single chromosome with
two identical chromatids
Chromosome Segregation - ANSWERS- The equal distribution of daughter chromosomes to each of the
two cells that result from cell division
Division Apparatus - ANSWERS- Responsible for chromosome segregation during cell division
Fts Proteins - ANSWERS- Essential for cell division in all prokaryotes
MreB - ANSWERS- Major shape determining factor in prokaryotes
