aaaahhhh
A biological process where microorganisms, like yeasts, convert sugars (such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose) into alcohol and carbon dioxide without oxygen.
alcohol fermentation
Facilitated diffusion
a type of passive transport where molecules, like glucose or amino acids, move across a cell membrane with the help of specific membrane proteins without energy
The process by which the instructions encoded within a gene are used to create a functional product, typically a protein or non-coding RNA
Gene expression
The difference in concentration of a substance between two areas.
Concentration Gradient
the chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms, typically involving the formation of gas bubbles and the giving off of heat.
Fermentation
What living animals inhale.
Oxygen (02)
The diffusion of just water.
Trophic level
A step in a food chain, representing the feeding position of an organism within an ecosystem
a type of anaerobic respiration where microorganisms convert sugars into lactic acid without using oxygen and produces a small amount of ATP (energy)
lactic acid fermentation
A type of diffusion that uses energy.
Active transport
The energy currency of the cell.
ATP/energy
a situation where organisms compete for the same limited resources within an environment
Competition
C02 and H20
Reactants in photosynthesis
C6H12O6 ----> C3H603 + ATP
Anaerobic respiration
A simple sugar which is an important energy source in living organisms.
Glucose
A substance that is present in the start of photosynthesis/cellular respiration
Reactants
Decomposer
An organism that breaks down dead organic matter, releasing nutrients back into the environment
Things that are produced in cellular respiration/photosynthesis.
Products.
Aerobic Respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2+ 6H2O + ATP
a method of moving molecules across a cell membrane that does not require the cell to use energy.
Passive transport
When energy is transferred from one trophic level to the next in an ecosystem, only about 10% of the energy is actually passed on
10% rule
The application of that data to a question, hypothesis, or claim.
data/evidence
Food chain
It describes who eats whom in an ecosystem, showing the flow of energy from one organism to another
Diffusion
The movement of anything but water moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
