Scientific Method and Basics of Bio
List these levels of organization from largest to smallest.
Population, Biosphere, Organism, Cell
This is the organelle in which Photosynthesis takes place.
Chloroplast
Amino Acids are the monomer for this class of molecule
Proteins
The ingredients for a chemical equation are called reactants. The substances that are formed as a result of a reaction are called this.
Products
The organelle is the powerhouse of the cell.
Mitochondria
According to the scientific method, you should do this after you ask a question, but before you come up with a hypothesis.
Research the question
In the light reaction, this molecule splits into electrons, hydrogen ions, and oxygen
Water
Olive Oil is an example of this type of Fatty Acid. We know this because it is liquid at room temperature.
Unsaturated
In order for a substance to be considered a base, the pH would need to be this.
Greater than 7
You can find this organelle at the center of the nucleus, where it produces ribosomes
Nucleolus
This is the process in which organism attempt to maintain a stable environment.
Homeostasis
In the Calvin Cycle, this many G3P molecules remain in the cycle, while 1 leaves to make sugar.
Energy or Structure
Adhesion is the name for the property of water in which it does this.
Sticks to other substances
The lysosome is responsible for doing this task for the cell.
Cleaning waste
Name 4 of the 6 characteristics of living things.
Response to Stimuli, Homeostasis, Growth and Development, Reproduction, Cells, Complex Chemistry
This is the first step in the Calvin Cycle
(Carbon) Fixation
This class of macromolecules includes a structure called a nitrogenous base, which helps it bond into chains with other similar molecules.
Nucleic Acids
An enzyme will only work on a specific one of these, or the substance that the enzyme is designed to build up or break down.
Substrate
Name 2 of the 3 organelles that are only found in plant cells
Large Central Vacuole, Cell Wall, Chloroplast
A scientist is testing which color of flower attracts the greatest number of bees to it. In this case, the number of bees that the scientist measures is this variable.
Dependent
In the light reaction, these three products are created.
ATP, NADPH, and Oxygen Gas (O2)
Name the 5 elements that are needed to build Nucleic Acids
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus
What does it mean for a reaction to be Exothermic?
Releases Heat/Energy
If a cell has no nucleus, we call it prokaryotic. If it does have a nucleus, we call it this.
Eukaryotic
