Homeostasis & Organ Systems
This system is where all the body's blood cells are produced
Skeletal
In ionic bonding, this happens to electrons.
A complete transfer of electrons
Oxygen plays this role in aerobic respiration
Final electron acceptor
Phospholipids have this type of head and this type of tail
Hydrophilic head
Hydrophobic tails
This organelle detoxifies hydrogen peroxide
Peroxisomes
Transcription takes place in the _______
Translation takes place in the _____
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
This type of feedback reverses changes to bring the body back to its set point
Negative feedback
Adding substance A lowers pH by increasing H⁺ concentration. Substance A is this
An acid
This process converts glucose to pyruvate
Glycolysis
Which type of transport across plasma membranes requires ATP?
Active transport
This organelle is the “powerhouse of the cell” because it generates most of the ATP.
Mitochondria
During this phase of the cell cycle, DNA is replicated.
S phase
This system is responsible for filtering and cleaning the blood
Urinary
An enzyme is an example of this type of macromolecule
Protein
Fatty acids are catabolized through this process
Beta oxidation
Drinking excessive water can cause extracellular fluid to become this, leading to swelling of cells.
Hypotonic solution
The smooth ER is specialized for this function instead of protein synthesis.
Lipid synthesis
During mitosis, chromosomes align at the center of the cell during this stage.
Metaphase
What is the main role of the respiratory system?
Gas exchange
Nucleotides are the monomer of which macromolecules?
Nucleic acids
This molecule carries electrons from the citric acid cycle to the electron transport chain
NADH
FADH2
The primary structural component of the plasma membrane.
Phospholipids
This organelle contains digestive enzymes to break down worn-out cell parts and pathogens.
Lysosomes
Proteins are built from this type of RNA at the ribosome.
mRNA
This system is responsible for the transportation of nutrients throughout the body
Cardiovascular
A glycerol plus three fatty acids makes this type of lipid
Triglyceride
The proton gradient in the ETC can be likened to what real-world way of producing energy?
A water mill
Diffusion occurs faster when this condition increases.
Temperature
The nucleolus does not store DNA, but rather makes this.
Ribosomal RNA
A sequence of three nucleotides on mRNA that codes for a specific amino acid is called this.
Codon
When body temperature rises, blood vessels dilate and sweat glands activate. These are examples of this component of the control mechanism.
Effectors
Changing the number of neutrons in an atom changes it into an
Isotope
ATP is produced mainly by these types of reactions
Oxidation/reduction
This is the type of solution in IVs administered to patients in a hospital setting
Isotonic
These are the largest fibers in the cytoskeleton
Microtubules
During this phase of the cell cycle, the cell is not actively dividing
Interphase
