show at the atomic level of a structure  
🗑
show *early *late(chronic/delayed) *embryo-fetal  
🗑
show *acute radiation syndrome *local tissue damage *hematologic damage(drops blood count) *cytogenic(cellular change)  
🗑
show *cancer *local tissue damage *life span shortening *genetic effects  
🗑

what are the three stages of radiation effects   show
🗑
what is something if it is acute   show
🗑
show *250 mSv= drop in cell count *1500 mSv= erythema adn NVD *3000 mSv= lethal dose, 50% of exposed population will die within 30 days(LD 50/30)

🗑
show building up of molecules  
🗑
what is metabolism   show
🗑
what is the composition of a macromolecule   show
🗑
show *provides form and cell shape *maintains temperature *enters into biochemical reactions  
🗑
what is the only non-organic molecule in the body   show
🗑
what role does protein play within a cell   show
🗑
show allow biochemical reactions  
🗑
what do hormones do   show
🗑
show primary defense against antigens  
🗑
show foreign substance that causes body to produce antibodies, when introduced to body  
🗑
show *structural component of cell membrane *thermal insulator *provide energy storage and fuel  
🗑
show *fuel for cell metabolism *provide shape and stability for cells/tissues *poly or monosaccharides  
🗑
what is the role of RNA within a cell   show
🗑
show *found only in nucleus *double helix *hold nitrogenous bases *contain 5-carbon sugar(pentose, which is a monosaccharide) *phosphoric acid bonds *contains all hereditary info *found on chromosome *most radiosensitive MM *contains codon  
🗑
what makes up the side rails of DNA ladder   show
🗑
show pairs of nitrogenous bases(one purine and one pyrimidine)  
🗑
show codon  
🗑
basic unit of matter, consists of nucleus and surrounded by negatively charged electrons   show
🗑
(A#) number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus   show
🗑
show atomic number  
🗑
two atoms that have same number of protons but different number of neutrons/same atomic number different atomic mass   show
🗑
show octet  
🗑
determines the chemical binding ability of an atom   show
🗑
show homeostasis  
🗑
what is the second level of cellular composition   show
🗑
show small organ within a cell with specific functions  
🗑
what are the different types of organelles within a cell   show
🗑
organelle found within the cytoplasm that functions as channels whereby nucleus communicates with cytoplasm   show
🗑
organelle that concentrates and packages secretion products (mailman)   show
🗑
show lysosomes  
🗑
where macromolecules are digested to produce cellular energy, known as the workhorse or engine of the cell   show
🗑
small organelle, which is the site of protein synthesis   show
🗑
show the cell  
🗑
show basic living subunit, within any living organism  
🗑
has single helix strand, found in and outside of nucleus, and comes in messanger, and transfer varieties   show
🗑
show deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA)  
🗑
show cell membrane  
🗑
outside of nucleus but within plasma membrane, contains organelles and all living things within a cell, made of 70%-90% water   show
🗑
show *protein synthesis- genetic code contained in DNA tells which protein to be produced *code transfers to mRNA within nucleus, mRNA leaves via ER on way to ribosome, where it is tranferred to tRNA. tRNA searches cytoplasm for the coded amino acid.  
🗑
what is the next step after tRNA finds the amino acid that matches the code it carries   show
🗑
what happens if there is any interference with any of the sequences of protein synthesis   show
🗑
all cells of the body except the oogonium and the spermatogonium   show
🗑
what type of cells are oogonium(ovum) and spermatogonium(sperm)   show
🗑
show somatic cells  
🗑
show *prophase *Metaphase *anaphase *telophase  
🗑
show prophase  
🗑
*chromosomes at equatorial plate *membrane completely broken down *chromatids attach to spindle fibers by centromere *duplication   show
🗑
*splitting of each chromosome at centromere, so that a centromere and two chromatids are attached to a spindle fiber, which is attached to a spindle or pole *newly formed chromosomes migrate to opposite poles or spindles   show
🗑
*structural chromosomes disappear into mass of DNA *nuclear membrane is pinched in middle and two new nuclei are formed   show
🗑
*towards the end of telophase *cytoplasm is divided into two equal parts(daughter cells), each one keeping one of the nuclei *not a part of mitosis, but a seperate part of proliferation   show
🗑
