Cell Biology
All cells come from preexisting cells is part of...
What is cell theory?
These bonds hold the elements in a water molecule together.
This molecule is a carbohydrate and is the main source for producing energy in the cell.
What is glucose?
This codes for a specific trait in an organism.
What is a gene?
Homeostatis is the process of...
What is maintaining a stable internal environment, even with changes in the external environment.
This cell type has circular DNA that is not in a nucleus.
What is a prokaryotic cell? (Or What is a prokaryote?
These bonds are weak, but cause water molecules to bond together.
What are hydrogen bonds?
This molecule makes up nucleic acids.
What are nucleotides?
This is a specific version of a gene.
What is an allele?
This is an example of something our bodies maintain in homeostatis.
What is:
- pH
- blood sugar levels,
- oxygen/carbon dioxide levels
- blood pressure
This is a subcellular structure found inside the cell.
What is an organelle?
This property of water, due to hydrogen bonds, explains why sweat cools you down.
What is high heat of vaporization?
This molecule in the cell has a hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic tail.
What is a phospholipid?
This allele will always be expressed if it is present.
What is a dominant allele?
When the body responds to a stimulus to bring it back to a set point, this is called...
What is negative feedback?
This is the name of the currently accepted model of the cell membrane.
What is the fluid mosaic model?
What is oxygen?
This molecule is a protein that speeds up reactions in a cell.
What is an enzyme?
What is the genotype?
When the body reactions to a stimulus to increase its effect, this is called...
This molecule stabilizes the cell membrane.
What is cholesterol?
This property of water keeps it from rapidly changing temperature, making aquatic habitats less stressful on the organisms that live in them.
What is high specific heat?
This is where substrates bind, and reactions occur in enzymes.
What is the active site?
This is the physical trait that can be observed in an organism.
What is the phenotype?
Sweating, vasodilations, and slowing metabolism occur when.
What is overheating?
