Organic fluorophosphates Compounds such as diisopropylfluorophosphate, which inhibits acetylcholinesterase by forming a stable phosphoryl enzyme complex at a serine residue in the active site.

CentiMorgan (cM) The unit of distance in genetic maps. Over short distances, if two genes are 1 cM apart then they will recombine on average 1% of the time.

Moving Organisms
Beyond the role they play in internal cell movement, microtubules also work together to form larger structures that work on the outside of the cells.

Centimorgan (cM)
A unit of measure of recombination frequency. One centimorgan is equal to a 1% chance that a marker at one genetic locus will be separated from a marker at a second locus due to crossing over in a single generation.

Organisms are not passive targets of their environment. Each species modifies its own environment. At the least, organisms remove nutrients from and add waste to their surroundings. Often, waste products benefit other species.
