Study Notes

Biology, Genetics, Cell Biology

Biology is the scientific study of life, encompassing various levels from molecules to ecosystems.
Genetics is the field of biology focusing on heredity and variation in living organisms.
Cell biology examines the structure, function, and behavior of cells.

DNA Replication

DNA replication is the process by which a cell duplicates its DNA.
This process is essential for cell division and the transmission of genetic information.
The process involves unwinding the DNA double helix, separating the two strands.
DNA polymerase synthesizes new strands complementary to the original strands.
Errors during replication can lead to mutations.
Replication occurs in a semi-conservative manner. Each new DNA molecule consists of one original strand and one newly synthesized strand.

Enzyme Activity

Enzymes are biological catalysts that accelerate biochemical reactions.
They typically work by lowering the activation energy required for a reaction to occur.
Enzyme activity is influenced by factors like temperature and pH.
Each enzyme has a specific active site that binds to a specific substrate.
Enzyme-substrate complexes form, where the reaction occurs.
Products are released from the complex, leaving the enzyme unchanged.

Stages of Mitosis

Mitosis is a type of cell division resulting in two identical daughter cells.
It's a crucial process for growth, repair, and asexual reproduction.
Stages involved:
- Prophase: Chromosomes condense, nuclear envelope breaks down, spindle fibers form.
- Metaphase: Chromosomes align at the metaphase plate (center of the cell).
- Anaphase: Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles.
- Telophase: Chromosomes decondense, nuclear envelopes reform, and the cell begins to divide.

Stages of Meiosis

Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that produces four genetically unique daughter cells.
Crucial for sexual reproduction.
It involves two rounds of division (Meiosis I and Meiosis II).
Key differences from mitosis include:
- Homologous chromosome pairing and crossing over in Meiosis I
- Separation of sister chromatids in Meiosis II
The result is four haploid cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
