Other Similar Biology Terms:
Bio Term mictic egg is A thin shelled haploid egg. If not fertilized, they will produce males by parthenogenesis. If fertilized, they will accumulate a large amount of yolk and secrete a heavier, resistant shell. These eggs are now dormant and can survive harsher environmental conditions until they develop into a diploid amictic female.Bio Term Asp is Aspartate (an amino acid).
Bio Term micropyle is A small canal in the integument surrounding the ovule of a flowering plant, through which the pollen tube usually enters the ovule on the way to the embryo sac. Water enters the seed via the micropyle prior to germination.
Bio Term Antigenic drift is The accumulation of mutations that modify a molecule on the cell surface of a pathogen and thereby alters recognition by the host immune system. These changes prevent preexisting antibodies from recognizing the invading pathogen. This process is most often used to describe viruses. (See Antigenic variation below)
Bio Term Giemsa stain is A complex of stains specific for the phosphate groups of DNA.
