100
The application of scientific research to society's needs and problems. Examples: machines, brain scans
What is technology?
100
Process by which monomers bind together to form polymers, and water is formed.
What is Dehydration Synthesis?
100
States all organisms are composed of cells, the cell is the basic living unit of organization in all organisms, and all cells come from other cells.
What is Cell Theory?
100
Process of splitting glucose.
What is Glycolosis?
100
Any change in the DNA structure. -Errors in replication -Errors in transcription -Errors in cell division -external agents (mutagens)
What is a Mutation?
200
How and where a species meets its needs for food, sheter, reproduction and survival in general.
What is a niche?
200
Located in the "cloud", negative charge in an element.
What is an electron?
200
Area containing digestive enzymes, digests material, and can fuse with the vacuole and dispense its enzymes into the vacuole.
What is a Lysosome?
200
Term for the "goop" of the mitochondria.
What is the Matrix?
200
Brings instructions from DNA out of the nucleus and to the ribosomes.
What is Messenger RNA (mRNA)?
300
A stable community that undergoes little to no change.
What is Climax Community?
300
The net movement of particles from an areas of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
What is Diffusion?
300
The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane.
What is Osmosis?
300
-Occurs in yeast cells and bacteria during anaerobic conditions. -Produces CO2 (makes dough rise) -Produces ethyl alcohol
What is Alcoholic Fermentation?
300
Delivers amino acids to ribosomes to be assembled into a protein.
What is Transfer RNA (tRNA)?
400
The number of organisms of one species that an environment can support.
What is Carrying Capacity?
400
Present in living things in very small amounts. Examples: Iron, Zinc, Copper, Iodine
What is a trace element?
400
Where the membrane allows some molecules to pass through while keeping others out.
What is Selective Permeability?
400
-Molecules of NADH drop the H -12 hydrogens of glucose can be cashed in for 36 ATPs -Oxygen collects electrons and combines with H2 to make water. -Occurs in the cristae (fold of mitochondria) -Poisons such as cyanide block ETC
What is Electron Transport Chain?
400
Where DNA instructions are passed to an RNA molecule -Enzymes "unzip" DNA and use one strand as a template -Another enzyme base pairs RNA nucleotides with the template -Enzyme seals the sugar phosphate backbone -RNA strand is released and sent out of the nucleus
What is Transcription?
500
Population Growth Equation
What is dN/dt=rN?
500
Uses water to break bonds between subunits that make up polymers.
What is Hydrolysis?
500
Process of cell division, specifically division of the nucleus.
What is Mitosis?
500
Process by which mitochondria break down food molecules to produce ATP.
What is Cellular Respiration?
500
Process in which the DNA in chromosomes is copied. -DNA unzips -Matches to base pairs -Secures backbone -Corrects mistakes
What is DNA Replication?
