Julie+F

flat =About Me= Hey :) I am Julie and I am turning 16 on January 3rd. I am outgoing, talkative and loud at times. I love hanging out with friends, making people laugh, and texting. My favorite subject is American History. I am a nice person for the most part so talk to me sometime. Bye :)

=White Oak=

//Scientific Name:// Quercus Alba //Organism that Effects tree: Gypsy Moth// //Provides Food or Habitat for: squirrels,chipmunks, deer, and turkeys// //Justify Classification of Tree: Chestnut Oak, and Scarlet Oak// //Commercial Use of Tree: Hardwood flooring, whiskey barrels, and boat building.// //Twig Characteristics: Red-grey, w/ greyish coating, rounded bud, redish brown, smooth.// //Where Tree is Found in World (native to PA?): Eastern United States//

=//Buckwheat (Grain)//=

1.Where it is in the world? New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and North Dakota 2.Foods made from the grains (discuss examples from a wide sampling of places around the world). Flour, noodles, bread, pasta, and pancakes 3.Interesting information about the grain and how it is used. The largest Buckwheat milling comoany is in Birkett Mills located in Penn Yan, N.Y.

Step 3:Polymerase begin to start to rebuild the other side of the DNA stand.

Step 4: The sugars and phosphate bonds finish the outside part of the DNA. Now there are two stands of DNA that are exactly the same.

Telomeres-Telomeres are at the end of chromosomes and sometimes appear as stretch like marks. They also keep the different ends of the chromosomes from getting attatched to each other, which would be bad.

Okazaki fragments- is the second type of DNA polymers binds to the other template stand as the double helix opens, this molecule must synthesize discontinuous segments of polynucieotides called okazaki fragments.

DNA Ligase- found in non-dividing cells and used to combine the fragments back together.

Telomerase- is an enzyme that adds telomere repeat to the 3' end of DNA strands.

Cancer-cells that always have an abnormal karotype, they can usually grow on much simpler culture mediums, and have no contact with inhibition.

Transplated Cells- First, cells are removed from a person or animal. They then look for what the cells are lacking and then replace the cells with new ones that will multiply and begin to heal the person/animal. The major problem with this is that the cells die after each use of this process.

Cloning- when you make an exact copy of a DNA strand.

Aging- is the progressive lose of physiological functions that increases the probability of death.
