what is mutualism?
the doctrine that mutual dependence is necessary to social well-being.
what is interphase?
before mitosis occurs the cell must grow and prepare for division by copying its dna.
what are complex carbs?
Complex carbohydrates are made of long chains of sugar molecules and include starches and fiber.
Endocytosis and exocytosis allow a cell to import and export large materials such as...?
proteins, hormones, neurotransmitters, and even entire microorganisms.
What is osmosis?
the movement of water molecules from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration
what is commensalism?
an association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither benefit nor harm.
what is anaphase?
the chromatids are pulled apart to opposite ends if the cell.
butter, oil, nuts, are what kind of carbs?

What is endocytosis?
What are the two types of cell transport?
passive transport and active transport
what is paratism?
the practice of living as a parasite in or on another organism.
nefore mitosis occurs the cell must grow and preoare for division by copying its DNa this stage is called..?
The stage in the cell cycle where a cell grows, prepares for division, and copies its DNA is called interphase.
what are nucleic Acids?
organic substance present in living cells.
What are the different types of endocytosis and how do they differ in terms of what they take in..?
phagocytosis
How does osmosis affect plant cells?
influencing water movement into and out of cells impacting turgor pressure and plant structure
what is competition?
when organisms or species compete for limited resources such as food water and shelter.
what are the steps of mitosis?
PMAT, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telephase, and cytokinesis.
what are the four major groups of carbon?
carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids
What is the process of expelling material from the cell?
exocytosis
What is osmotic pressure?
the pressure that would have to be applied to a pure solvent to prevent it from passing into a given solution by osmosis
what is predation?
many species got their eating other organisms the act of pursuing on organism for food is known as predation.
the cytoplasm splits to new daughter cells formed which is known as..?
The division of the cytoplasm to form two new daughter cells is called cytokinesis.
Carbon based molecules are called..?
Does endocytosis increase cell size?
Endocytosis decreases the plasma membrane area
How does osmosis differ from diffusion?
Osmosis is a specific type of diffusion where water molecules move across a semipermeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration
