100
The subatomic particles of a typical atom
What are protons, neutrons, and electrons?
100
These are two examples of passive transport.
What are diffusion and osmosis?
100
This is the formula for cellular respiration and photosynthesis:
What is:
CR = glucose + oxygen -> ATP + CO2 + H20
PS = sunlight + CO2 + H20 -> glucose + oxygen
100
The variable that we usually have control over, and the variable that we are measuring are called:
What is the independent variable, and the dependent variable?
100
These molecules are found within the cell membrane, and allow for cell communication
What are receptor proteins?
200
Electronegativity and partial charges between different atoms causes this type of bonding
What is hydrogen bonding?
200
These types of cells do have not membrane-bounded organelles
What are prokaryotic cells?
200
These are the types of cellular respiration
What are aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
200
The group within an experiment that is used for comparison purposes, and usually does not receive special treatment
What is the control?
200
The addition of a phosphate group to another organic compound is called:
What is phosphorylation?
300
Amino acids are made up of these three groups.
What are the carboxyl group, amine group, and a variable (R) group?
300
This is the sequence of protein synthesis, starting at the organelle that contains the information to create them, ending with the protein being transported out of the cell:
What is the Nucleus -> cytoplasm -> ribosome -> ER -> golgi -> vesicles -> cellmembrane
300
Which stages of respiration occur within the mitochondria?
What is the link reaction, krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation
300
Factors that minimize uncontrolled variables within an experiment
What are constants?
300
The five stages of the mitotic cell cycle:
What is interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
400
Name at least four properties of water
What are:
polarity, cohesion, adhesion, high heat capacity, high heat of vaporization, less dense as a solid, excellent solvent
400
These category of molecules diffuse right through the cell membrane passively:
What are small, nonpolar molecules?
400
The order of the light reaction, starting with photons hitting the first protein system, ending with any of the two energy rich molecules being created
What is: photosystem 2 -> cytochrome complex -> photosystem 1 -> NADPH or ATP
400
A measure of how much spread there is within the average of a data set
What is standard deviation?
400
There are genes, called proto-oncogenes that control for normal cell division. However, upon mutation of that gene, leads to a gene called an oncogene, which can cause abnormal cell division, aka
What is aka cancer?
500
This molecule modifies the fluidity of the cell membrane by reducing the fluidity of the cell membrane through filling in unsaturated phospholipid gaps, leading to a decreased membrane permeability
What is cholesterol?
500
This is what happens when a plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution.
It becomes turgid (swells up)
500
The three stages within the calvin/light-independent reaction/dark cycle
What are: fixation, reduction, regeneration
500
The third runner up on the 2016 presidential elections in North Carolina
What are Deez Nuts
500
This process begins with one original parent cell and produces four, nonidentical daughter cells with half the amount of the original genetic information
What is meiosis?
