What bases pair together in RNA?
A-U
T-A
C-G
G-C
Made of fatty acids
Lipids
The cell type that has organelles
eukaryote
Enzymes do this to chemical reactions
Speed them up
Maintaining constant internal conditions such as through temperature regulation is an example of this
Homeostasis
3 RNA bases code for one
amino acid
Best for quick energy
carbohydrates
Only plant cells have these, which perform photosynthesis
chloroplast
The substance that fits into an enzyme
Substrate
Substances move into and out of cells through this
cell membrane
Name one difference between DNA and RNA
RNA has U, single stranded, ribose sugar
The building block of nucleic acids
nucleotides
In a hypertonic solution, this will happen to cells
Lose water, shrink
Catalase enzyme breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. What is the substrate?
Hydrogen peroxide
Name something found in ALL cells
DNA, cytoplasm, cell membrane, ribosomes
Describe the purpose of gel electrophoresis (DNA fingerprinting)
This macromolecule has many functions and help provide structure to hair, nails, and muscle
Protein
When molecules are too large to pass through the cell membrane, they can move through a protein. This type of passive transport is called
facilitated diffusion
When enzymes are deformed in high temperatures it is called
denatured
Cell transport that requires energy
Active transport
