Atoms and Water
Whoa That's Macro!
Homeostasis, Cells, and Organelles
that's a "Photo" Phinish!
It's a Power House!
100

what is the smallest unit of matter?

Atoms! 

100

what are the 4 major macromolecules of life?

proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates

100

What is the smallest unit of life?

Cells!

100

What organelle does photosynthesis take place in?

Chloroplast 

100

Which organelle(s) does cellular respiration take place in?

Mitochondria & Cytoplasm

200

What are the 3 subatomic particles?

protons, neutrons, and electrons 

200

what is a carbohydrate a scientific term for?

sugar

200

What are 2 differences between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

Prokaryotes: unicellular, simple, small, no nucleus/ membrane bound organelles 

Eukaryotes: unicellular OR multicellular, complex, larger, has nucleus/ membrane bound organelles 

200

What is the goal product photosynthesis is trying to make?

Glucose 

200

What is the goal product of cellular respiration?

ATP!!!!

300

What bond shares electrons?

Covalent

300

what is the monomer of a protein?

amino acid

300
This organelle contains chromosomes and is the "brain" of the cell 

nucleus 

300

What are the two chemical reactions of photosynthesis? Where does each take place in the chloroplast? 

Light reactions --> thylakoid membrane

Dark reactions --> stroma 

300

What are the 3 chemical reactions of cellular respiration?

Glycolysis 

Krebs (citric acid) cycle

ETC

400

What defines a molecule as "polar"? 

the charges in the molecule are unevenly distributed. 

400

why are saturated fatty acids consider "unhealthy"?

because they are full of hydrogen, making it difficult for enzymes to break them apart.  Unsaturated has carbon "holes" that allows enzymes to break them down easier. 

400

What are 2 organelles that only PLANT cells have (and not animal cells)

cell wall and chloroplast 

400

What is the purpose of chlorophyll? Why does it make plants green?

it is a pigment that captures the light energy, it makes plants green because it reflects green wavelengths. 

400

What are the TWO molecules cellular respiration uses to carry electrons from glycolysis and krebs cycle to the ETC?

NADH

FADH

500

Attraction of unlike molecules (different substances) 

Adhesion

500

Why are proteins the most "diverse" macromolecule?

because proteins can be structural, transporters, messengers, can act as enzymes, and help fight disease. 

500

What is the role of the ribosome and where can you find them in the cell?

they are the "protein" factory and located in the cytoplasm OR the rough ER

500


A. Light

B. Water

C. Thylakoid (Light Reactions)

D. Oxygen 

E. NADPH

F. ATP

G. CO2 

H. krebs cycle/ stroma 

I. Glucose

500

What are the reactants and products for each of the following reactions:

Glycolysis 

Krebs Cycle

ETC

1. Glycolysis:

reactants: glucose & ATP |  Products: NADH/ e-, ATP, and pyruvic acid 

2. Krebs Cycle:

reactants: Pyruvic Acid, 4 Carbon Compound (oxaloacetate) | Products: NADH/FADH (e-) & ATP   

3. ETC:

reactants: e- & O2 | products: ATP!!!
