Energy required to bring about a recation. It is lowered by the presence of enzymes.
Activation Energy
1 of 8
Resistance to disease resulting from the activities of an individuals own immune system whereby an antigen induces plasma cells to produce antibodies.
Active Immunity
2 of 8
A group of amino acids that makes up the region of an enzyme into which the substrate fits in order to catalyse a reaction.
Active Site
3 of 8
Movement of a substance from a region where it is in a low concentration to a region where it is in high concentration. The process requires the expenditure of metabolic energy.
Active Transport
4 of 8
Connected with the presence of free oxygen. This type of respiration requires free oxygen to release energy from glucose.
Aerobic
5 of 8
One of a number of alternative forms of a gene. For example, the gene for the shape of pea seeds has two of these, one for 'round' and one for 'wrinkled'.
Allel
6 of 8
A normally harmless substance that causes the immune system to produce an immune response.
Allergen
7 of 8
The response of the immune system to an allergen. Examples include hayfever and asthma.
Allergy
