Biology Review 1

100

These are the building blocks of carbohydrates/starches:

Simple sugars!

200

What is the monomer of a carbohydrate?

What is MONOSACCHARIDE

300

This type of cellular transport requires energy to move from a low concentration to a high concentration.

What is ACTIVE TRANSPORT

400

This macromolecule is responsible for making up a large part of the cell membrane.

What are LIPIDS

500

This acts as a catalyst to speed up reactions. It is specific to temperature and pH levels.

What is an ENZYME

Cells

100

This type of cell contains only three organelles including the nucleus.

What is a Prokaryotic cell

200

This type of cell includes things like Chloroplast and cell walls.

What is plant cells

300

This type of organelle has two parts with one part contain another organelle inside of it to help with his function. 

What is Endoplasmic Reticulum/ Rough and Smooth ER?

400

This type of organelle is considered the storage unit of the cell. It can be very large inside

What is a Vacuole?

500

This type of organelle is similar to a vacuole but is only located in plant cells.

What is a centriole?

Photosynthesis

100

This is the process in which plants and other autotrophs 

What is Photosynthesis?

200

This the process that is called the inverse of photosynthesis.

What is cellular respiration?

300

These molecules are key to Photosynthesis and cellular respiration

What is ATP and ADP?

400

This is the chemical equation for photosynthesis to cellular respiration.

What is C₆H₁₂0₆+6O₂?

500

This process occurs in the matrix where pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy extracting reactions.

What is the Krebs cycle?

Feedback systems

100

This term refers to animals/organisms abilities to detect stimuli depending on specialized cells called this

What is sensory neurons?

200

This is the process in which neurons inform the brain on what to do and sends a message to complete the action

What is a positive feedback loop

300

This process is called ________. Example: you burn your hand and pull your hand back quickly without thinking about it. 

What is a negative feedback loop

400

These type of organisms either need sunlight to provide them heat or uses the internal temperature to gain heat. 

What is endothermic and ectothermic organisms?

500

These two body parts are responsible for nervous system control

What is brain and spinal cord?

Biology Review 2

100

This process requires oxygen and creates ATP in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.

What is CELLULAR RESPIRATION

200

This converts solar energy to chemical energy in the form of ATP for the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis.

What is CHLOROPHYLL

300

This organelle is responsible for protein synthesis.

What is a ribosome?

400

This organelle is responsible for packaging and sending material across the cell. 

What is the Golgi apparatus/Golgi Complex?

500

These are the three organelles that are found ONLY in plant cells.

What is CHLOROPLAST, CELL WALL, CENTRAL VACUOLE
