Biology Review 1
These are the building blocks of proteins:
Amino acids
This type of cell does not have a 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?
Made of one cell and one cell only.
What is a prokaryote?
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
The cell wall is made of this type of macromolecule.
What is a carbohydrate?
This type of cell includes things like Chloroplast and cell walls.
What is plant cells
This process is called the happens in the mitochondria to give us power.
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
What are the steps of interphase?
This type of organelle has two forms with one part having ribosomes attached to it.
What is Endoplasmic Reticulum/ Rough and Smooth ER?
These molecules are key to providing energy in both Photosynthesis and cellular respiration to carry out the processes.
What are ATP and electron carriers?
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
An organelle that helps in drug detoxification and breaking down worn out organelles.
What is a lysosome?
This process occurs in the thylakoid of the chloroplast
What is the light dependent reaction?
Where DNA is replicated during interphase.
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 recessive female, what is the probability of having a homozygous recessive genotype?
What’s is 50%?
