The concept that organisms who are the best suited to their environment will be the most successful
Natural selection
These simple molecules form the basis of all proteins
Amino acids
Which organisms have the most available energy in a food pyramid?
Producers
These are the products of cellular respiration
Water, carbon dioxide, and ATP
what would you call this set of alleles: bb
Homozygous recessive
The grouping of cells that contain DNA, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and a cell membrane, but no other membrane-bound organelles.
Prokaryotic or prokaryotic cell
Enzymes reduce this in order to speed up a reaction.
Activation energy
A students observes a cell where the chromosomes appear to be pulled apart by spindle fibers. These two final steps would come after this.
Telophase and cytokinesis
A biomolecule that serves as a fast source of energy?
Carbohydrates
Any inherited trait that increases an organism's chance of survival is known as this.
Adaptation
This RNA is transcribed from a section of DNA and later leaves the nucleus in order to be translated into an amino acid chain.
mRNA
movement of ions, and molecules across cell membranes without the need for energy input
Passive transport
Water molecules have attractive forces to one another and are held together by these types of weaker bonds
Hydrogen bonds
The stage in mitosis where DNA gets replicated
S phase
If the producers contain 10,000 Kcal, then how much energy will the secondary consumers contain?
100 Kcal
What type of solution has more solutes on the outside of the cell?
Hypertonic
This process produces four genetically unique cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as in the parent
meiosis
Keystone species
This is the process by which organisms break down glucose, without the use of oxygen, to create ATP
Anaerobic cellular respiration
There are three organelles found in a plant cell but not an animal cell. name 2
Cell wall, large central vacuole, and chloroplast
The process by which water moves through the cell membrane to balance out a high concentration of solutes.
Osmosis
The formula for photosynthesis
CO2 + H2O —> C6H12O6 + O2
When two different alleles are present it is considered:
Heterozygous
What is the process called when an ecosystem must regrow after a forest fire?
Secondary succession
Sickle cell anemia is a recessive disease. If you cross two parents with the alleles Aa x Aa, what are their children's chances of having sickle cell anemia?
25% have sickle cell
