This organelle is where cellular respiration occurs. It has separate DNA from the cell nucleus that is inherited from the mother.
What is the mitochondria?
100
This type of transport does not require energy.
What is passive transport?
100
This biomolecule consists of C, H, and O. Its primary purpose is short-term energy.
What are carbohydrates?
100
These organisms are at "the bottom of the food chain". They are usually photosynthetic autotrophs.
What are producers?
100
Happens during interphase between gaps 1 and 2 in the synthesis portion of interphase.
What is DNA replication?
200
This small organelle is where translation occurs during protein synthesis.
What is the ribosome?
200
This type of transport does require energy to move ions against the concentration gradient.
What is active transport?
200
This type of biomolecule consists of C, H, and O in long, triple fatty-acid chains called triglycerides. Its primary purpose is long-term energy storage.
What are lipids?
200
These organisms are heterotrophs. They cannot produce their own food.
What are consumers?
200
During this stage of mitosis/meiosis the chromatin condenses into chromosomes, the nucleolus diminishes, and the nuclear membrane disappears.
What is prophase?
300
This membranous organelle has ribosomes imbedded in it. Its main purpose is producing and transporting proteins.
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
300
These passage ways imbedded in the cell membrane are used to allow molecules to pass into and out of the cell. Usually, these passages only let certain molecules pass through.
What are protein channels?
300
These biomolecules consist of C, H, O, and N. They have many purposes including structure, defense, transport, hormones, and enzymes. They are made of long chains of amino acids.
What are proteins?
300
The amount of energy that passes from one trophic level to another.
What is 10%?
300
The scientific name for the actual division of mitotic or meiotic daughter cells.
What is cytokinesis?
400
This organelle folds, packages, and transports proteins produced by the cell.
What is the Golgi complex?
400
A type of active transport in which the cell membrane encases a particle and brings it into the cell in a vesicle.
What is endocytosis?
400
These biomolecules consist of C, H, O, N, and P. They are made of nucleotides and used to store genetic information.
What are nucleic acids?
400
A triangular representation of how energy flows through a biological community.
What is an energy pyramid?
400
During this phase of mitosis/meiosis the chromosomes are pulled to opposite sides of the cell by spindle fibers.
What is anaphase?
500
This organelle breaks down waste and/or food particles for reuse/use by the cell.
What is a lysosome?
500
The opposite of endocytosis, a vesicle merges with the cell membrane and releases its contents to the exterior of the cell.
What is exocytosis?
500
Name one of the 4 tests to indicate the presence of biomolecules and indicate which molecule it detects.
What is starch? (carbohydrates)
What is Benedict's solution? (sugars)
What is biuret? (proteins)
What is brown paper? (lipids)
500
A linear series of organisms showing a producer and the sequence of consumers that are dependent on that producer.
What is a food chain?
500
The term used for a body cell that contains two copies of each chromosome.
