Metabolism
All of the chemical reactions in a cell.
What is metabolism?
This molecule gets oxidized in cellular respiration.
What is glucose?
Conversion of solar energy into chemical energy.
What is photosynthesis?
Binary fission is the primary way this organism divides.
What are prokaryotes?
These cells are made from meiosis.
What are gametes?
The potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction.
What is chemical energy?
The number of molecules of ATP that are produced from 1 molecule of glucose.
What is 32?
These organisms cannot photosynthesize and must use those that do.
What is a heterotroph?
This is a complex of DNA and protein that condenses during cell division.
What is chromatin?
The number of cell divisions that occur in meiosis.
What is two?
This law is: "Energy cannot be created or destroyed".
What is the first law of thermodynamics?
This molecule is produced in both glycolysis and fermentation.
What is pyruvate?
Photosynthesis occurs in this organelle.
What is the chloroplast?
These phases make up interphase of the cell cycle.
What is G1, S, and G2?
The swapping of chromosomal segments in prophase I.
What is crossing over?
A process where the reactants have more energy than the products and energy is released.
What is an exergonic reaction?
This molecular machine makes ATP in the mitochondria.
What is ATP synthase?
This color of light is not conducive to photosynthesis reactions.
What is the color green?
This phase is found in mitosis and not in meiosis.
What is prometaphase?
The chromosomes only replicate only in this phase.
What is S phase of interphase?
This protein lowers the activation energy in a reaction and can be altered by changes in pH or temperature.
What is an enzyme?
This fermentation process can produce cheese or yogurt.
What is lactic acid fermentation?
The electrons flow through these photosystems in order.
What are photosystems II and I?
This is the final product of mitosis.
What is two identical daughter cells?
Sister chromatids separate in this phase of meiosis.
What is Anaphase II?
