| What is IgG responsible for? | Memory |
| Two ways Antibodies work to prevent infection | Cell wall synthesis (commonly used) Protein Synthesis |
| Antibiotic inhibition test | Used to measure the zone of no growth on the Kirby Bower disk |
| Bioinformatics | The use of computers and math to store and analyze information |
| How do bacteria exchange DNA? | Plasmids exchange DNA through the pilli |
| Qualitative Quantitative | Yes/No Determining the quality |
| Tinnitus | Ringing in ears |

| Passive and Natural | A newborn who is breastfed |
| Plasmid | A circular, double stranded unit of DNA that replicated within a cell. Plasmids are created as a vector to exchange DNA |
| Single Gene Ressesive | Diseases that can be cured with gene therapy. Ex.Cystic Fibrosis |
| Multifactoral Genetic Disorder | Diseases that may become worse due to your lifestyle Ex. Cancer |
| Karyotype | Chromosome Map |
| Nucleoid | The Bacteria's DNA |
| Ribosomes | Translate the genetic message in messenger DNA |
| Cell Membrane | Allows things to enter and blocks things from entering the cell |
| Flagella | Used for movement |
| Pilli | Allow bacteria to attach to other cells |
| Antibody | An antigen bonding immunoglobin, produced by b cells, that functions as an immune response |
| Conjugation | The one-way transfer of DNA between bacteria in cellular contact |
| Transduction | The transfer of genetic material from one organism to another by a genetic vector |
| Substrate | The reactant on which an enzyme works |
| Antigen | A foreign macromolecule that does not belong to the host organism and elicts an immune response |
| Primer | A molecule whose presence is required for formation of another molectule |
| Recombinant DNA | A dna molecule made in vitro with segments from different sources |
| DNA Ligase | A linking enzyme essential for DNA replication and recombinant DNA techniques |
| Taq Polymerase | A DNA synthesis enzyme that can withstand the hightemperatures of DNA |
| Denaturation | In DNA, the separation of two strands of the double helix |
| Single Nucleotide Polymorphism | One base-pair variation in the genome sequence |
| Genome | The complement of an organisms genes; an organisms gentic material |
| Genotype | The genetic makeup of an organism |
| Phenotype | The physical and physiological traits of an organism |
| Anneal | To be capable of combining with complementary nucleic acid by a process of heating and cooling |
| Retrovirus | infect dividing cells, can integrate into a place where it disrupts a gene |
| Adenovirus | will not integrate into host cell genome, can cause immune response |
| Herpes Simplex Virus | Infects Nervous System Cells |
