Botany
1. adventitious roots - A root that grows from somewhere other than the primary
root, for example, roots that arise from stems or leaves. – Придаточные корни
2. alternation of generations - Life cycle in which haploid and diploid
generations alternate with each other – Чередование поколений
3. anemophily - Seed plants which are pollinated by wind are said to be
anemophilous - Анемофилия
4. angiosperm - n. A group of plants that produce seeds enclosed within an
ovary, which may mature into a fruit; flowering plants - Покрытосеменные
5. anther -The pollen producing tip of a stamen; part of a flower - Пыльник
6. antheridium -The organ on a gametophyte plant which produces the sperm
cells- Антеридий
7. anthophyte - A flowering plant, or any of its closest relatives, such as the
Bennettitales, Gnetales, or Pentoxylales - Антофит
8. apical meristem - Group of cells at the growing tip of a branch or root. It
divides cells to create new tissues – Апикальная меристема
9. archegonium -The organ on a gametophyte plant which produces the egg cell,
and nurtures the young sporophyte - Архегоний
10. axil - The angle formed between a leaf stalk and the stem to which it is
attached. In flowering plants, buds develop in the axils of leaves - Пазуха
11. bipinnate - Describing a pinnate leaf in which the leaflets themselves are
further subdivided in a pinnate fashion - Бипиннат
12. bisporangiate - When a flower or cone produces both megaspores and
microspores, it is said to be bisporangiate. Most flowers are bisporangiate Биспорангиат
13. blade - Any broad and flattened region of a plant or alga, which allows for
increased photosynthetic surface area - Лезвие
14. bract - Any reduced leaf-like structure associated with a cone or flower Прицветник
15. bryophyte - Plants in which the gametophyte generation is the larger,
persistent phase; they generally lack conducting tissues. Bryophytes include
the Hepaticophyta (liverworts), Anthocerotophyta (hornworts), and Bryophyta
(mosses) - Мохообразные
Cell biology
1. bacteriophage - Virus which infects and destroys a bacterial host. Some
phages, however, will incorporate their DNA into that of their host, and
remain dormant for an extended period. For this reason, they have become
essential tools of genetic engineers – Бактериофаг
2. capsid - The protein "shell" of a free virus particle - Капсид
3. cell - Fundamental structural unit of all life. The cell consists primarily of an
outer plasma membrane, which separates it from the environment; the
genetic material (DNA), which encodes heritable information for the
maintainance of life; and the cytoplasm, a heterogeneous assemblage of
ions, molecules, and fluid - Клетка
4. cell cycle - Complete sequence of steps which must be performed by a cell
in order to replicate itself, as seen from mitotic event to mitotic event. Most
of the cycle consists of a growth period in which the cell takes on mass and
replicates its DNA. Arrest of the cell cycle is an important feature in the
reproduction of many organisms, including humans – Клеточный цикл
5. cell membrane - The outer membrane of a cell, which separates it from the
environment. Also called a plasma membrane or plasmalemma – Клеточная
мембрана
6. cell wall - Rigid structure deposited outside the cell membrane. Plants are
known for their cell walls of cellulose, as are the green algae and certain
protists, while fungi have cell walls of chitin – Клеточная стенка
7. chloroplast - A chlorophyll-containing plastid found in algal and green
plant cells - Хлоропласт
8. chromosome - Linear piece of eukaryotic DNA, often bound by specialized
proteins known as histones - Хромосома
9. coenocytic - Condition in which an organism consists of filamentous cells
with large central vacuoles, and whose nuclei are not partitioned into
separate compartments. The result is a long tube containing many nuclei,
with all the cytoplasm at the periphery - Ценоцитарный
10.colonial - Condition in which many unicellular organisms live together in a
somewhat coordinated group. Unlike true multicellular organisms, the
individual cells retain their separate identities, and usually, their own
membranes and cell walls - Колониальный
11.contractile vacuole - In many protists, a specialized vacuole with associated
channels designed to collect excess water in the cell. Microtubules
periodically contract to force this excess water out of the cell, regulating the
cell's osmotic balance – Сократительная вакуоль
12.cytoplasm - All the contents of a cell, including the plasma membrane,but
not including the nucleus - Цитоплазма
13.cytoskeleton - Integrated system of molecules within eukaryotic cells which
provides them with shape, internal spatial organization, motility, and may
assist in communication with other cells and the environment. Red blood
cells, for instance, would be spherical instead of flat if it were not for their
cytoskeleton - Цитоскелет
14.dikaryotic - Having two different and distinct nuclei per cell; found in the
fungi. A dikaryotic individual is called a dikaryon - Дикариотический
15.diploid - Having two different sets of chromosomes in the same nucleus of
each cell. Most metazoans and plants are diploid. Compare with haploid –
Диплоид
