What is the most important characteristic of water?
- POLARITY OF THE HYDROGEN - OXYGEN BOND:
- The most important characteristic of water is the polarity of its bond. The results of its polarity are hydrogen bonding, a high specific heat value, and its versatile solvent properties.
-
What biologic macromolecules is most important to the cellular membrane?
- PHOSPHOLIPIDS:
- The cellular membrane is able to funtion as a barrier protecting the cell because of the polarity of the phospholipid.It is the key component that makes the membraine possible. Steroids, membrain protiens, and carbohydrates aid in the fuction of the membrane, but they are not responsible for its creation and well-being.
-
What cellular origanelle is the sight of the catabolic pathway leading to cellular energy production?
- MITOCHONDRION:
- A catabolic pathway is one that breaks down molecules to produce energy. The organelle responsible for this is the mitochondrion. The chloroplast acts to harvest solar energy to store its chemical energy. The two forms of ER funtion to produce transport vesicles and proteins.

What is the probability that a recessive trait would be expressed in offspring if two parents who are both heterozygous for the desired trait were crossed?
- 25%:
- The second Punnett square in the section on genetics is a cross of the two parents who are heterozygous for the same trait. As you can see, there is one in four or 25% chance that that the recessive trait will be expressed. If one is dominant then it will be expressed.
-
In which organelle dose transcription begin?
- NUCLEUS:
- Transcription begins with the reading of DNA in a cell to reduce a complamentry strand of mRNA. The DNA of the cell is located in the nucleus. Therefore the beginning of transcription takes place in the nucleus . The ribosome is the site of translation. Cytoplasm is the semitransparent, gelatinous fluid that is present in cells.
