Structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
— Double helix of nucleotides (A_T, G_C base pairing)
Membrane structures that function in active transport—

Golgi apparatus
Movement of organelles is associated with structure? —
Cytoskeleton (microtubules)
Dehydration reactions are used in a cell to do what? —
Build macromolecules (proteins, carbs, nucleic acids)
What maintains the secondary structure of a protein?
— Hydrogen bonds
What are the nitrogenous purine nucleotides?
— Adenine and Guanine
Which structure is part of the endomembrane system? —
ER, Golgi, lysosomes, vesicles, plasma membrane
How does a non-competitive inhibitor decrease enzyme reaction rate? —
