True or False: Osmosis is an example of homeostasis at the cellular level

TRUE

100

What system do neurons belong to?

Nervous System

100

From smallest to biggest what is the cell hierarchy? 

Atom, Molecule, Macromolecule, Organelle, Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ system, Organism

100

Where does photosynthesis and cellular respiration happen?

Photosynthesis occurs in chloroplasts

Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria

100

List the 4 macromolecules

Lipids, Nucleic acids, Carbohydrates, Proteins

200

What is the Definition of Homeostasis?

The ability of the body to maintain a stable internal environment.

200

The digestive system is responsible for breaking down food in order to obtain nutrients. What other body system helps get nutrients throughout the body.

Circulatory system.

200

I am the food producer of plants I get energy from the sun and create sugars in order to break them down into energy. I am a ____________________

Chloroplast

200

What is the main goal for cellular respiration?

The main purpose is to create ATP (energy).

200

What are the elements found in Proteins?

Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, and Oxygen

300

What are 3 examples of negative feedback

Examples: Temperature regulation, Blood Pressure Pulse, Metabolism, Blood sugar regulation
300

What are the three main vessels within the circulatory system

Arteries, Capillaries, and veins 

300
What are the parts that all cells (prokaryotic and eukaryotic) have in common

Ribosomes, DNA, Cell membrane, cytoplasm

300

Write the equation for cellular respiration on the board

Bonus points for correct balanced chemical equation

C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> ATP + 6CO2 + 6H2O
300

True or False: Checkpoints are necessary within the cell cycle and mitosis

Bonus points for explaining why

True

Because we need these checkpoints to check for any mutations before the cell divides. If there are no checkpoints the cell could continue to divide resulting in uncontrolled cell division

400

Give me one example of negative feedback and explain how that process maintains homeostasis.

Answers will vary

400

Name two places within the body where BOTH chemical and mechanical digestion occur.

Mouth and Stomach

OR

Stomach and Small intestine

400

What are the main functions for the following organelles

Vacuole, Cell Membrane, and Ribosomes

Vacuole - Stores water and food (larger in plants)

Cell membrane - Controls what goes in and out of cell

Ribosome - Create proteins

400

What are the Reactants for Photosynthesis?

CO2 + H2O + Sunlight Energy

400

What is the final outcome of cell division (Mitosis)

Two new daughter cells are created with identical DNA

500

What is the difference between Negative and Positive feedback?

The difference is that Negative feedback brings a system closer to stability while positive feedback works to increase the reaction due to increase in stimulus.

500

Difference between Chemical and Mechanical digestion

The difference between chemical and mechanical is that mechanical involves the breaking down of materials physically while chemical digestion breaks down food particles using, acids, bile, and enzymes

500

Name 5 organelles that plant and animal cells have in common

Cell membrane, Nucleus, Ribosomes, Vacuole, Mitochondria, ER, Golgi,
500
A plant had a mutation that caused it to have a non-functioning chloroplasts. What happens to a plant that does not have a functioning chloroplasts?

The plant will not be able to perform photosynthesis meaning it cannot create glucose. Because of this the plant will not be able to perform cellular respiration as well to create energy. The plant would eventually die.

Name the 4 phases of mitosis in order

Bonus points for naming the other two phases

Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, Cytokinesis
