Osmosis is the movement of water across membranes to balance solute concentrations. Water diffuses from a solution that is hypotonic into a solution that is hypertonic

Turgor pressure is the hydrostatic pressure that increases as water enters plant cells.

When the anomeric hydroxyl of a D-hexose is on the same side of the ring as C-6, the structure is β a by definition; when it is on the opposite side from C-6, the structure is α.

Synthesis of an Okazaki fragment displaces the RNA primer of the preceding fragment in the form of a “flap.”

the base of the flap is cleaved by the enzyme FEN1 (f lap endonuclease 1).  In this reaction, FEN1 functions as an endonuclease, but it also has a 5’–3’; exonuclease activity. In DNA repair reactions, FEN1 may cleave next to a displaced nucleotide and then use its exonuclease activity to remove adjacent material.
