100
Name the major product of photosynthesis.
What is glucose.
100
Describe the purpose of cellular respiration.
What is to break down glucose to use it for energy.
100
Define diffusion.
What is where molecules go from areas of high concentration to low concentration.
100
Name the two main limiting factors for cell size.
What are the rate of diffusion and the surface area to volume ratio.
100
Name the stages of mitosis in order.
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase.
200
Name the carbon source for organisms that derive their energy from photosynthesis.
What is carbon dioxide.
200
Identify the organelle that is involved in cellular respiration.
What are the mitochondria.
200
Define osmosis.
What is the movement of the solvent across a membrane.
200
What happens to the surface area compared to the volume as the cell gets larger? *hint* it has to do with the exponential growth of both
What is the surface area doubles and the volume triples.
200
Define mitosis.
What is a division mechanism that occurs in body cells of multi-celled eukaryotes.
300
Name what is produced as a product of the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis.
What is glucose.
300
Where is the electron transport chain located?
What is on the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
300
Describe the function of a cell/plasma membrane.
What is a barrier that selectively control exchanges between the cell and its surroundings.
300
Describe why cells divide.
What is to reduce their surface area to volume ratio.
300
Name the part of the cell cycle where the chromosomes are condensed and organized.
What is interphase.
400
Name the substance that oxygen released in photosynthesis comes from.
What is water?
400
Name the three processes of cellular respiration, in order.
What is glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain.
400
Describe the difference between passive transport and active transport.
passive transport: moves with the flow of the concentration gradient and does not require energy active transport: requires energy (typically in the form of ATP) to move substances against the concentration gradient
400
Name the less common limiting factor for cell size.
What is DNA.
400
Name the stage of the cell cycle where the cell prepares to divide.
What is G2?
500
Name the reactants and byproducts of both the light dependent and light independent reactions of photosynthesis.
Light independent: reactant - water, byproduct - oxygen Light dependent: reactant - carbon dioxide, byproduct - glucose
500
Name the process that may occur in a muscle under anerobic conditions.
What is fermentation.
500
Describe the factors that affect the rate of diffusion.
What are temperature, steepness of concentration gradient, size, pressure, and charge.
500
Describe whether or not the rate of diffusion changes for different cell sizes and why.
The rate of diffusion doesn't change for different cell sizes, it just diffuses a whole cell faster if it is smaller.
500
Name the "thing" that disappears in the first stage of mitosis and re-appears in the fourth stage.
What is the nuclear envelope?
