Is totipotency the tissue culture Please reply.. so confused :confused:

Totipotency practical is exactly the same as tissue culture.
Totipotency itself is a form of tissue culture.

Anatomical is more about physical features. Physiological is more on the way the body works. So, anatomy deals with the structure of an organism, so skeleton, organ system, tissue structure, and even cell structure, whereas physiology looks at function, so how these organs work, how cell metabolism works, how enzymes work.
Does this help? :smile:

It's so hard to stay optimistic knowing the unit 1 was a complete disaster. I don't think that tomorrow will be any different :/ Revision is going alright, and this is my last exam :smile:

After that, no more biology for the rest of my life :biggrin:

If the totipotency is the practical with the agar, I doubt it will come up because in came up in the January 2013 exam : /

P.S. Do we need to know water uptake in detail?

what causes founder effect? what is founder effect, what causes genetic drift? what causes it? any possible ways of reducing them?
what causes inbreeding depression?
and why is it bad? how can we reduce inbreeding depression apart from selective mating, studbooks?
do we need to know these things?
