a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes
the movement of molecules across a cell membrane from a region of their lower concentration to a region of their higher concentration
forms within the blastocyst, prior to its implantation within the uterus. The ICM is a cellular mass on one side of the hollow interior of the round embryo, the outer layer of which is called the trophoblast
are undifferentiated cells found throughout the body that divide to replenish dying cells and regenerate damaged tissues
unequal distribution of ions across the cell membrane
a substance capable of causing cancer in living tissue
s the process of spontaneous passive transport of molecules or ions across a cell's membrane
is one in which the concentration of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside of it
Fertilized egg
is a procedure in which eggs (ova) from a woman's ovary are removed. They are fertilized with sperm in a laboratory procedure, and then the fertilized egg (embryo) is returned to the woman's uterus
