anaerobic product in yeast

24
Q

excretion

A

removal of metabolic waste

25
egestion
removal of undigested material
26
excretory products from mammals
•carbon dioxide •urca •salt(s)
27
animals that can vary their metabolic rate significantly
endotherm
28
species
a group of organisms capable of interbreeding to produce fertile offspring
29
evolution
genetic changes in response to environment over time
30
role of natural selection
•better adapted survive •reproduce •adaptation is inherited
31
mutation
•a change in DNA
32
gene mutation disorder
sickle cell anaemia
33
chromosome mutation disorder
down syndrome
34
requirements for successful tissue culture
•sterile conditions •suitable medium •suitable temp •suitable pH •oxygen supply
35
turgid
pressure of cell contents against the cell wall
36
a vein that transports blood out of the muscle from heart
coronary vein
37
bring that brings blood away from kidneys
renal vein
38
vein that carries little carbon dioxide
pulmonary vein
39
vein that brings blood into right atrium
vena cava
40
vein that has capillaries at both ends
hepatic portal vein
41
how blood move through veins
skeletal muscle contracting, valves prevent back flow
42
function of red marrow and yellow marrow
yellow - converts red blood cells to red marrow •red- produces blood cells
