This organelle is known as the "powerhouse of the cell" because it generates most of the cell's supply of ATP.
What is the Mitochondria?
On the Periodic Table, "He" is the symbol for this noble gas.
What is Helium?
This force pulls objects toward the center of the Earth.
What is Gravity?
This peripheral device is used to "point and click" on a computer screen.
What is a Mouse?
This famous inventor is credited with creating the first practical light bulb and held over 1,000 patents.
Who is Thomas Edison?
This term describes the maximum number of individuals of a species that an ecosystem can sustainably support without degrading the environment.
What is Carrying Capacity?
A solution with a pH of 2 is considered to be this.
What is Acidic?
According to Newton’s Second Law, Force equals mass times this.
What is Acceleration?
This 3D modeling term refers to the process of pushing a 2D shape into a 3D volume.
What is Extrusion?
This term refers to software or machines designed to mimic human intelligence to perform tasks like problem-solving.
What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?
This process, occurring in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast, uses light energy to split water molecules and release oxygen as a byproduct.
What are the Light-Dependent Reactions (or Photolysis)?
This type of bond involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
What is a Covalent Bond?
This is the unit used to measure electrical resistance.
What is the Ohm?
In computer logic, this gate only outputs "true" if both of its inputs are true.
What is an AND gate?
If a right-angled triangle has a base of 3 and a height of 4, what is the length of the hypotenuse?
What is 5? (Pythagorean Theorem)
This specific enzyme is responsible for "unzipping" the DNA double helix by breaking hydrogen bonds during the replication process.
What is Helicase?
This gas law states that the pressure of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its volume at a constant temperature.
What is Boyle's Law?
This term refers to the phenomenon where a wave changes direction as it passes from one medium to another.
What is Refraction?
This type of manufacturing uses a subtractive process, often involving a lathe or a mill, to remove material.
What is Machining?
This "subtractive" manufacturing process uses a rotating cutting tool to remove material from a stationary workpiece.
What is Milling?
This two-word environmental phenomenon occurs when a keystone predator is removed, causing primary consumers to overpopulate and eventually destroy the ecosystem's primary producers.
What is a Trophic Cascade (Ecosystem Collapse)?
This term describes a reaction that absorbs heat from its surroundings.
What is Endothermic?
In Einstein's famous equation E=mc2, the "c" stands for this constant.
What is the Speed of Light?
This protocol, consisting of 4 numbers separated by periods, is used to identify a device on a network.
What is an IP Address?
Commonly used in aerospace and high-end bikes, this 'miracle metal' is as strong as steel but 45% lighter, and it is named after the powerful Greek deities of mythology.
What is Titanium?
