prokaryote: Encyclopedia - Concept

A concept is an abstract, universal idea, notion, or entity that serves to designate a category or class of entities, events, or relations. Concepts are abstract in that they omit the differences of the things in their extension, treating them as if they were identical. They are universal in that they apply equally to every thing in their extension. Concepts are also the basic elements of propositions, much the same way a wor ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia - Biotechnology

Biotechnology is a technology based on biology, especially when used in agriculture, food science, and medicine. Of the many different definitions available, the one formulated by the UN Convention on Biological Diversity is one of the broadest: "Biotechnology is any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use." Or another definition can be: Biotechnology is the manipulation of organisms to ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia - Fission

In general fission is a splitting or breaking up into parts. In physics, nuclear fission is a process where a large nucleus such as uranium is split into two smaller nuclei. In biology, binary fission refers to the process whereby a prokaryote reproduces by cell division. It is similar to mitosis and meiosis in eukaryotes. In anthropology, fission refers to the process whereby a nationstate divides and becomes multiple states (example: Yugoslavia). ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia - Astrosociobiology

Astrosociobiology (also referred to as exosociobiology and xenosociology) is the speculative scientific study of extraterrestrial civilizations and their possible social characteristics and developmental tendencies. The field involves the convergence of astrobiology, sociobiology and evolutionary biology. Hypothesized comparisons between human civilizations and those of extraterrestrials are frequently posited, placing the human situation in the same context as other extraterrestrial intelligences. Whenever possible, ast ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia - Alternative splicing

Alternative splicing is the process that occurs in eukaryotes in which the splicing process of a pre-mRNA can lead to different ripe mRNA molecules and therefore to different proteins. Also viruses have adapted to this biochemical process when using the protein biosynthesis apparatus. When the pre-mRNA has been transcribed from the DNA, it includes several introns and exons. In nematodes, the mean is 4-5 exons and introns; in the fruit fly Drosophila there are more than 100 introns and exons in one transcribed pre-mRNA. ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Microtubule - Structure

Microtubules are polymers of α- and β-tubulin dimers. The tubulin dimers polymerize end to end in protofilaments. The protofilaments then bundle in a hollow cylindrical filaments. Typically, the protofilaments arrange themselves in an imperfect helix with one turn of the helix containing 13 tubulin dimers each from a different protofilament. The image above illustrates a small section of microtubule, a few αβ dimers in length. Another important feature of microtubule structure is polarity. Tubulin polymerizes end to end with the Π...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Biotechnology - Sub-fields of biotechnology

There are a number of jargon terms for sub-fields of biotechnology. Red biotechnology is biotechnology applied to medical processes. Some examples are the designing of organisms to produce antibiotics, and the engineering of genetic cures to cure diseases through genomic manipulation. White biotechnology, also known as grey biotechnology, is biotechnology applied to industrial processes. An example is the designing of an organism to produce a useful chemical. White biotechnology tends to consume less in resources than ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Mitochondrial genetics - The mitochondrial genome

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is present in mitochondria as a circular molecule and in most species codes for 13 or 14 proteins involved in the electron transfer chain, 2 rRNA subunits and 22 tRNA molecules (all necessary for protein synthesis). The number of proteins involved in the electron transfer chain is much larger than 13 or 14, but the remainder is in fact coded by the nuclear DNA. In total, the mitochondrion hosts about 3000 proteins, but only about 37 of them are coded on the mitochondrial DNA. Most of the 3000 genes are involv ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Concept - John Stuart Mill's Conceptions

John Stuart Mill stated that general conceptions are formed through abstraction. A general conception is the common element among the many images of members of a class. "...[W]hen we form a set of phenomena into a class, that is, when we compare them with one another to ascertain in what they agree, some general conception is implied in this mental operation" (A System of Logic, Book IV, Ch. II). Mill did not believe that concepts exist in the mind before the act of abstraction. "It is not a law of our intellect, that, in compa ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Astrosociobiology - Possible extraterrestrial characteristics

Given these assumptions, astrosociobiologists attempt to make predictions about those characteristics that may be common to all extraterrestrial societies. For example, based on human experience, astrosociobiologists conclude very broadly that all civilizations go through similar developmental stages, including agrarian culture, industrialization, democratization, globalization, and an information age (this being said, it's still not an absolute certainty that democracy is here to stay, nor that ETIs are able to maintain it either; totalitar ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Astrosociobiology - Civilization types

A method for classifying civilization types was introduced by Russian astronomer Nikolai Kardashev in 1964. Known as the Kardashev scale, classifications are assigned based on the amount of usable energy a civilization has at its disposal and increasing logarithmically: Type I - A civilization that is able to harness all of the power available on a single planet, approximately 1016W. Type II - A civilization that is able to harness all of the power available from a single star, approximately 1026W. ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Astrosociobiology - Assumptions

In order for astrosociobiologists to embark on speculations about the condition and characteristics of extraterrestrial civilizations, a number of assumptions are necessarily invoked: Extraterrestrial civilizations exist Extraterrestrial civilizations operate in agreement with the known laws of physics Extraterrestrial civilizations must in some part resemble our own, both in terms of: morphological and psychological characteristics, and civili ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Mitochondrial genetics - Relevance

Because they provide 36 molecules of ATP per glucose molecule in contrast to the 2 ATP molecules produced by glycolysis, mitochondria are essential to all higher organisms for sustaining life. This is why slight problems with any one of the numerous enzymes used by the mitochondria can be devastating to the cell, and in turn, to the organism. Also, mitochondria specialize depending on what cells they exist in, and they perform specific functions at different stages in ...

prokaryote: Encyclopedia II - Mitochondrial genetics - Mitochondrial Replication Repair Transcription and Translation

Mitochondrial replication is controlled by chromosomes in the nucleus and is specifically suited to make as many mitochondria as that particular cell needs at the time. Mitochondrial polymerase is used in the copying of mtDNA during replication. Because the two (heavy and light) strands on the circular mtDNA molecule have different origins of replication, it replicates in a D-loop (displacement) configuration. One strand begins to replicate first, displacing the other strand. This continues until replication reaches the origin of replication ...

Sociobiology attempts to explain animal behavior, group behavior and social structure in terms of evolutionary advantage or strategy and using techniques from ethology, evolution and population genetics. Sociobiologists are especially interested in comparative analyses, especially in studying human social institutions and culture. Astrobiology is the speculative field within biology that considers the possible varieties and characteristics of extraterrestrial life. Astrobiologists speculate about the possible ways that organic life could come into being in the universe and th ...
