NDSU Virtual Cell Animations Project animation 'Photosynthesis'. For more information please see http://vcell.ndsu.ed u/animations
Photosynthesis is the means by which plants make use of chorophyll and light to produce energy. This section covers the basic stages in the photosynthetic electron transport chain.

Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria and provides both animals and plants with the energy needed to power other cellular processes. This section covers the electron transport chain.
NDSU Virtual Cell Animations project animation "Translation". For more information, see http://vcell.ndsu.no dak.edu/animations
Translation is a key process in biological lifeforms. It is this set of events that transforms the code contained in DNA and later mRNA into the proteins necessary for cellular life.

Before being used in translation, mRNA must be spliced. During splicing, exons are removed and the translateable introns that remain are spliced into a single strand of mRNA.

Gradients are used to create energy that can power biological cyles. ATP synthase is powered by a hydrogen gradient, located in the mitochondria. This section covers the action of this specific gradient.

Photosynthesis allows plants to use the energy in light to produce molecular oxygen. Photosystem II is the complex where this action occurs.

Protein trafficking is used to describe the process of moving proteins from the rough ER, through the Golgi apparatus, where they are modified and packaged into vesicles.
NDSU Virtual Cell Animations Project animation 'Protein Modification (Golgi)'. For more information please see http://vcell.ndsu.ed u/animations
Protein modification is the process by which some proteins from the rough ER are altered within the Golgi apparatus in order to be targeted to their final destinations.

After being transcribed, mRNA is processed. Before mRNA can be spliced, certain features must be added. These alterations are made during mRNA processing.
