Bio Term Cascade is A series of events that result in transmission and usually amplification of a weak signal.Bio Term Gene conversion is An genetic event that produces abnormal segregations by non-reciprocal recombination. Gene conversion has been extensively studied in ascomycetes, where it occurs following meiosis as the result of the formation of a mismatched base pair and subseque nt repair by the mismatch repair system.
Bio Term Centromere is The region of a eukaryotic chromosome responsible for attachment to the mitotic or meiotic spindle leading to controlled partitioning of chromosomes during nuclear division.
Bio Term Density shift labeling is The addition of either a heavy or a light isotope to the growth medium which changes the density of the newly synthesized nucleic acids. For example, N14 is the natural isotope of nitrogen, so incorporation of N15 into DNA incr eases the density of the DNA.
Bio Term chromosome loss is Failure of a chromosome to become incorporated into a daughter nucleus at cell division.
