Biology Review 1
These are the building blocks of proteins:
Amino acids
This type of cell contains does not have nucleus or membrane bound organelles
What is a Prokaryotic cell
This is the process in which plants and other autotrophs convert light energy to carbohydrates
What is Photosynthesis?
What type of cells are prokaryotic?
bacteria
This process requires oxygen and creates ATP in the the mitochondria.
What is CELLULAR RESPIRATION
The term that describes a genotype made of two identical alleles
Homozygous
This type of cell includes things like Chloroplast and cell walls.
What is plant cells
This process is called the inverse of photosynthesis.
What is cellular respiration?
Cell spends 90% of its time here
interphase
This pigment converts solar energy to chemical energy in the form of ATP for the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis.
What is CHLOROPHYLL
G1, S, G2, & M
Stages of the cell cycle
This type of organelle has two parts with one part having ribosomes attached to it.
What is Endoplasmic Reticulum/ Rough and Smooth ER?
These TWO molecules are key to providing energy in both Photosynthesis and cellular respiration
What is ATP and ADP?
DNA that is condensed during cell division
chromosomes
This organelle is responsible for protein synthesis.
What is a ribosome?
Monomer of DNA & RNA
nucleic acids
This macromolecule is responsible for making up a large part of the cell membrane.
phospholipids
This type of organelle is considered the storage unit of the cell. It can be very large in the case of plants.
What is a Vacuole?
What are the two cycles of photosynthesis?
Light dependent and light independent reactions.
Area where spindle fibers attach to chromosome
Centromere
This organelle is responsible for packaging and sending material across the cell.
What is the Golgi apparatus/Golgi Complex?
Movement of molecules from high concentration to low
diffusion
These proteins act as a catalysts to speed up reactions in the body and usually end in "ase"
What is an ENZYME
This type of organelle is similar to a vacuole but is smaller & can move around the cell.
What is a vesicle?
This process occurs in the thylacoid of the chloroplast
What is the light dependent reaction?
The phase of a cell cycle where the cell duplicated its DNA
What is the S phase?
Movement of particles across a membrane that uses a protein but no energy
What is facilitated diffusion
If a heterozygous male crosses with a homozygous dominant female, what are the possible off spring genotypes?
Homozygous dominant ex. AA
or
Heterozygous ex. Aa
