(mitokondriya)
mitokondrion
an organelle that is abundantly present in most cells and is responsible for energy production
(chromosome)
kromosoma
a very small threadlike structure in a living organism that carries the genes and genetic information
A chromosome is a long, thread-like structure found in the cells of living organisms. It is made up of proteins and DNA, which contains the genetic instructions for growth, development, and functioning. Each chromosome carries many genes, which are the instructions for making proteins and determining various traits and characteristics. Humans have 46 chromosomes in each cell, arranged in 23 pairs, with one set coming from each parent. Chromosomes are crucial for cell division, as they ensure that genetic information is accurately copied and distributed to new cells.
(kloroplast)
chloroplast
a plant cell organelle that uses sunlight to produce energy and make glucose through photosynthesis

the gel-like, semifluid substance within a cell that surrounds the organelles, providing a medium for cellular activities, including metabolism, transport of substances, and support for cellular structures
(granula)
cytoplast
a cell that has had its nucleus removed or the cellular material excluding the nucleus
(balangkas sa loob ng selula)
cytoskeleton
a network of protein fibers in a cell that gives it shape, supports its structure, and aids in movement
(nukleotida)
nukleotid
a molecule that forms the basic building block of DNA and RNA, consisting of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base
(genom)
genome

(polipeptidong chain)
polipeptido
a linear chain of amino acids linked by peptide bonds, forming a primary structure of a protein

(sentriolare)
sentriolo
a pair of small cylinders near the nucleus in animal cells, organizing cell division by forming the mitotic spindle
(telomer)
telomera
a repetitive DNA sequence at the end of a linear chromosome, protecting it from deterioration during replication, and playing a role in cellular aging and cancer development
(histon)
histone
a type of protein that plays a structural role in the packaging of DNA into nucleosomes, fundamental units of chromatin
(phenotipo)
fenotipo
the observable physical and behavioral characteristics of an organism, resulting from the interaction of its genotype (genetic makeup) with the environment
(kapayapaan ng loob)
homeostasis
the tendency of an organism or cell to regulate its internal environment and maintain a stable, balanced condition, despite external changes
(pagsasalinwika)
pagsasalin
the process by which the information encoded in the sequence of nucleotides in DNA is converted into a functional product, typically a protein
(Pagsasalin ng RNA)
Transkripsyon
the process by which a segment of DNA is used as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA molecule
(replicasyon)
pag-uulit
the process by which an organism duplicates its genetic material, particularly the copying of DNA in cell division
(heterosigota)
heterozygote
an individual organism or cell with two different alleles at a specific gene locus, having inherited different genetic information from each parent
(homozygote)
homozygot
an individual organism or cell with two identical alleles at a specific gene locus, having inherited the same genetic information from both parents
(kódon)
codon
a sequence of three adjacent nucleotides in mRNA that codes for a specific amino acid during protein synthesis or serves as a start or stop signal in the translation process
(pagsasamasama)
symbiosis
a close and often long-term interaction between two different species living in close physical association, typically to the advantage of both
(amiba)
ameba
a single-celled, microscopic organism belonging to the group of protozoa, characterized by a flexible cell membrane and the absence of a fixed body shape
Impormasyon sa Gramatika:
(katabing-protektang pambiyolohikal)
capsid
the protein coat of a virus that encases its genetic material and helps it attach to and enter host cells during infection
(kawagawa ng mga halaman)
kloropil
a green pigment found in all green plants and cyanobacteria that is responsible for the absorption of the sunlight needed for the photosynthesis process
(eukaryot)
eukaryote
a type of living thing with cells that have a nucleus and other structures enclosed in membranes, like plants, animals, fungi, and some microorganisms
(fetus)
sanggol sa sinapupunan
an offspring of a human or animal that is not born yet, particularly a human aged more than eight weeks after conception
(itlog)
ovum
a mature, female reproductive cell or egg, typically larger than a sperm cell, capable of fusing with a sperm cell during fertilization to form a zygote
(pepsin ng tiyan)
pepsin
an enzyme produced in the stomach that helps in the digestion of proteins by breaking them down into smaller peptides
Pepsin is a digestive enzyme that plays a crucial role in the human body's digestion of proteins. It is produced in the stomach and acts to break down large protein molecules into smaller peptides. Pepsin works optimally in the acidic environment of the stomach, where it helps initiate the process of protein digestion, enabling the body to absorb essential amino acids for various biological functions.
(triphosphate ng adenosina)
adenosine triphosphate
a molecule that carries energy within cells, composed of adenine, a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups
Impormasyon sa Gramatika:
(prokaryotikong organismo)
prokaryote
a simple, single-celled organism that lacks a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, such as bacteria and archaea
