Compartmentalisation - as different organelle's different metabolic reaction require different optimum environments such as pH and temperature. Site of chemical reactions such as photosynthesis or respira...

When an action potential is transmitted from one neurone to another it has to be sent across a small gap - called the synapse. Firstly, the action potent...

When an action potential reaches the presynaptic bouton, it causes an influx of calcium into the nerve cell ending. This, in turn, causes vesicles containing the neurotransmitter (acetylcholine) to move t...

A sequence of three DNA nucleotide bases makes up a triplet. This triplet codes for one of 20 specific amino acids. The genetic code is universal because it is the same in all living orga...

first remember your base pairs: Adenine binds to Thymine and then Cytosine binds to Guanine. So if 28% are Adenine then 28% must also be Thymine. 28+28= 56% so 100-56 gives you the remaining percentage wh...
