Nucleus-Cytoplasm Interaction with Hammerling’s Experiment

In this article we will discuss about the Nucleus-Cytoplasm Interaction with Hammerling’s Experiment. The cytoplasm is the centre of metabolic activities in the cell and the nucleus is the ultimate controlling centre. The cytoplasm provides the suitable environment in which the cytoplasmic as well as nuclear genes operate. Many enzymes operate through the cytoplasm and particularly through certain living cytoplasmic [...]

Streptomycin Resistance in Chlamydomonas (With Diagram)

In this article we will discuss about the Streptomycin Resistance in Chlamydomonas. Ruthsagar (1965) has reported some cases of extrachromosomal inheritance in green alga chlamydomonas reinhardi. The alga reproduces by asexual as well as sexual means. It does not have different sexes but has positive and negative strains or mating types (mt+ and mt). The sexual reproduction involves fusion between [...]

Inheritance of Mitochondria (With Experiments)

The below mentioned article provides a study note on Inheritance of Mitochondria. Introduction to the Inheritance of Mitochondria: Mitochondria are the cytoplasmic organelles which contain various respiratory enzymes and are main source of energy for the cell. They are found in cell in variable numbers. The complexity of structure of the mitochondria and their similarity in some ways to plastids [...]
