Characteristics of Life
The term that refers for something to be considered non-living
Abiotic
True or False: All cells have cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and DNA
True
This is the organelle that contains genetic information of DNA and controls all cell functions
Nucleus
For something to be considered organic they must contain what?
The element Carbon
This term refers to the change in the inherited characteristics of a species over time
Evolution
This term refers to the smallest unit capable of life functions.
This is the organelle that supplies energy (ATP) for the cell through respiration.
Mitochondria
Carbon can make up to 4 bonds.
The process of which we remove water during a reaction in order to make monomers into polymers is called
Dehydration Synthesis
This term refers to two parent produce one offspring. Offspring gets genetic material from BOTH parents
An organisms that has a nucleus
Eukaryote
This organelle is responsible for making, synthesizes, proteins and can be found floating in the cytoplasm and/or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum
Ribosome
Which property of water explains why it takes more energy to increase the heat of water than many other substances.
Specific Heat Capacity
This macromolecules responsible for storing genetic information and have monomers called nucleotides
Nucleic Acids
This term refers to all of the chemical reactions carried out in an organism
Metabolism
Cell that is said to evolve first
This organelle digests old cell parts, excess material, and invading viruses or bacteria
This type of bond is the reason why water molecules are close to each other?
Hydrogen bond
This macromolecule helps forms enzymes that speed up chemical reactions and provide an immune defense for organism.
This term refers to the maintaining stable internal conditions in spite of changes in the external environment
atom, molecule, organelle, cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism
This organelle is the site of photosynthesis and captures sunlight and uses it to produce food
Which property of water allows water to move from the ground to the top leaves and branches of trees?
Capillary Action
This is the catalyst that helps decrease the activation energy needed in order for a reaction to begin.
Enzymes
