Cells
What is the powerhouse of the cell?
The Mitochondria
What is a cycle?
Any complete round or series of occurrences that repeat.
How long does primary succession take?
Hundreds of years.
What are Lipids?
Fats
What does Rough Endoplasmic do?
It makes proteins and transports
What are some types of cycles?
Water Cycle, carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, phosphorus cycle
What is primary succession?
When a new patch of land is created or exposed for the first time.
What do Lipids contain?
What does the Smooth Endoplasmic do?
It makes lipids, transports
What is sublimation?
Conversion of a solid into a gas with no liquid change.
What is secondary succession in biology?
When a previously occupied area is re-colonized following a disturbance that kills much or all of its community.
What are some examples of lipids?
Triglycerides, Phospholipids, Steroids
The Lipid Bilayer does what for the cell?
Separates the cell from its environment, and determines what goes in and out of the cell.
The chemical equation of Photosynthesis.
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
What causes Primary Succession?
Volcanoes, earthquakes, glaciers
What do Lipids do?
Ther supply energy to cells.
What makes up a Lipid Bilayer?
It consists of two layers of lipid molecules, and each lipid molecule or phospholipid contains a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O
What causes secondary succession?
What do phospholipids and triglycerides do?
phospholipids are the main component of cell membranes. Triglycerides are fat storage in animals.
