A
This organelle is responsible for making proteins.
ribosome?
The total magnification is calculated by multiplying the eyepiece lens by this lens.
objective lens
Prokaryotic cells lack this structure that eukaryotic cells have to store DNA.
nucleus
Name one of the three main components of the cell theory.
"All living things are made of cells"
"Cells are the basic unit of life"
"All cells come from pre-existing cells"?
This is the variable in an experiment that is changed on purpose.
What is the independent variable?
This term describes the structure of the plasma membrane, highlighting its fluid and mosaic nature.
fluid mosaic model
Gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide move across membranes by this passive process.
diffusion
This organelle packages and modifies proteins for
Golgi body
This double-membrane organelle contains its own DNA and is believed to have originated through
Mitochondria
In a scientific investigation, this group is used as a baseline for comparison and does not receive the experimental treatment.
Control Group
This process uses proteins and ATP to move substances against a concentration gradient.
Active Transport
This green pigment in chloroplasts captures light energy.
Chlorophyll
This term describes the specific region of an enzyme where the substrate binds.
What is the active site?
Experimental Techniques – This type of variable must be kept the same to ensure a fair test.
Controlled Variable
This organelle contains hydrolytic enzymes that digest waste and damaged cell components.
Lysosome
Name one key advantage of electron microscopes over light microscopes.
higher resolution / magnification
The first step of cellular respiration, occurring in the cytoplasm, is called this.
What is glycolysis
This molecule stores and releases energy for many cellular processes.
ATP
The relationship to water that the phosphate heads of the fluid mosaic model have.
Hyrophillic
Enzyme activity typically increases with temperature, but too much heat causes this change in the enzyme’s shape.
Denaturation
This stage of photosynthesis produces glucose and takes place in the stroma.
This is the process of repeating an experiment to check consistency of results
Reliability
Enzymes – Enzymes can be denatured by changes in these two conditions.
Temperature & pH
In this type of diffusion, molecules pass through channel or carrier proteins without using energy.
Facilitated Diffusion
Write the word equation for photosynthesis & respiration
Respiration - Glucose + Oxygen --> Carbon Dioxide + water + ATP
Photosynthesis - Carbon Dioxide + Water --> Glucose + Oxygen
