-
Starch is an example of
carbohydrate
-
What produces carbon dioxide?
respiration
-
Cytokinesis
- Cytoplasm divides
- half of the organelles are distributed into the new cells
-
DNA and RNA are
nucleic acids
-
An energy releasing process that does not require oxygen
fermentation
-
The organelle in which photosynthesis takes place is
Chloroplast
-
Element
Substance that can't be broken down further
-
Main method by whihc small molecules move across cell membranes
Diffusion
-
Process by which water moves across cell membrane
Osmosis
-
Active transport
requires cell to use own energy
-
passive transport
cell does not use energy
-
Interphase - 3 steps
- cell grows
- makes a copy of DNA
- prepares to divide into 2 cells
-
Mitosis
one copy of DNA is distributed into each of the 2 daughter cells
-
Cell Cycle - 3 phases
- Interphase
- Mitosis -prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
- Cytokinesis
-
4 phases of mitosis
- prophase
- metaphase
- anaphase
- telophase
-
Prophase
chromatin in nucleus condenses to form chromosomes. Pairs of centrioles move to opposite sides. Spindle fibers for a bridge between the ends of the cell. Nuclear envelope breaks down.
-
Metaphase
- chromosomes line up across center of cell
- each chromosome attaches to a spindle fiber at its centromere
-
Anaphase
- centromeres split and the 2 chromatids separate
- One chromatid is drawn by its spindle fiber to one end of the cell.
- The other moves to the opposite end
- Cell stretches out as the opposite ends are pushed apart
-
Telophase
- chromosomes begin to stretch out and lose their rodlike appearance.
- New nuclear envelope forms around each region of chromosomes
-
DNA replication occurs during
interphase
-
During DNA replication adenine pairs with
Thymine
-
Guanine pairs with
cytosine
-
Prediction
making a forecast of what will happen in the future based on past experience or evidence.
-
Model
creating a representation of complex object or process
-
Quantitative Observation
Numbers or amounts
-
Qualitative Observation
Descriptions that cannot be expressed in numbers
-
Operational definition
statement that describes how to measure a particular variable or how to define a particular term.
-
Enzyme
a protein that speeds up chemical reactions
-
Carbohydrate
energy rich organic compound made of elements carbon, oxygen & hydrogen. Starches and sugars
-
Lipids
Fats, oils and waxes. Cells store energy in lipids for later use
-
Proteins
- made up of amino acids
- form cell membranes and make up organelles
-
4 organic compounds
- carbohydrate
- lipid
- protein
- nucleic acid
-
Controlled experiment
only one variable is manipulated
-
manipulated variable
one variable that is purposely changed to test a hypothesis
-
hypothesis
- possible explanation for a set of observations or answer to a specific question
- Must be testable
-
Operation definition
statement that describes how to measure a variable or define a term
-
Transport proteins
Transport proteins in the cell membrane pick up molecules outside the cell and carry them in, using energy
-
Technology
- how people change the world around them
- improves the way people live
-
6 characteristics that all living things share
- cellular organization
- similar chemicals
- use energy
- respond to surroundings
- grow and develop
- reproduce
-
cell
basic unit of structure and function in an organism
-
4 needs of living things
- water
- food
- living space
- homeostasis
-
6 stages of scientific inquiry process in order
- posing questions
- developing a hypothesis
- designing an experiment
- collecting & interpreting data
- drawing conclusions
- communicating
-
Fermentation
provides energy for cells without using oxygen
-
Alcoholic fermentation
- yeast and other single cell organisms break down sugars
- Makes bread dough
-
Lactic acid fermentation
- when you exercise it occurs in your body
- muscle cells use up oxygen faster than it can be replaced
- lactic acid builds up and you feel pain
-
3 functions water performs in cells
- osmosis
- chemical reactions
- growth
-
What 2 molecules make up the sides of the DNA ladder
- Deoxyribose - molecules of a sugar
- Phosphates
-
Respiration Equation
- C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ----> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + energy
- sugar oxygen carbon dioxide water
-
Photosynthesis equation
- light energy
- 6 CO2 + 6 H2O -------> C6H12O6 + 6 O2
- carbon dioxide water sugar oxygen
