What is a hypotonic solution

100

Name what is a nonliving material that evolves quickly and contains a capsid to hold genetic material

What is a virus

100

These two organelles are found in plant cells but not animal cells

What is chloroplast and cell wall

100

These types of cells are able to pass a mutation to the offspring of a parent cell.

What are gametes

100

Viruses contain DNA

True

200

Name the solution that is described as "high solute levels will cause cells to shrink:

What is a hypertonic solution

200

A virus requires what in order to reproduce

What is a host/ living host

200

As cells differentiate, they become more ____ to form specific organs.

Specialized

200

This phase of Interphase is when DNA is replicated

What is S phase

200

Viruses are considered living because they cause illness and can live on surfaces for varied time lengths causing potential pathogenic exposure

False


Viruses are nonliving

300

This solution is balanced and required for animal cells to survive. The cells remain stable and unchanged when placed in this solution

What is an isotonic solution

300

G1, S, and G2 belong to what part of the cell cycle

What is Interphase

300

This protein lowers activation energy in a reaction

What is an enzyme

300
Muscle cells, blood cells, nerve cells, and skin cells are examples of the type of cells

What are somatic/body cells.

300

Active Transport does not require energy and moves from high concentration levels to low concentration levels

False


*Passive Transport

400
This cell transport requires ATP and moves from low concentration to high concentration

What is Active Transport

400

RNA codes for proteins during this process

What is translation

400

What is the complimentary DNA strand for:

ATC-CCG-AAT-GCG

What is 

TAG-GGC-TTA-CGC

400

This is the failure of one or more pairs of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids to separate normally in division. 

This can leave a gamete with additional or deleted chromosomes.


What is nondisjuction

400

Cold/Colder temperatures can cause a different gene expression in certain genes when compared to the same gene being expressed in warm/warmer temperatures

True

500

Categorize correctly to active or passive transport

-Simple Diffusion, Facilitated Diffusion, Osmosis 

What is passive transport

500

This is described as being able to: maintain homeostasis; grow and reproduce; respond to stimuli; contains one or more cells; metabolizes; contains DNA; consumes nutrients for energy

What is a living organism

500

This RNA molecule assist in translating the mRNA/ codon, produces the anticodon, and transfers the amino acid to the ribosome to become a protein

What is tRNA
500

If an organism has 50 chromosomes in their somatic cells, how many chromosomes will be found in the gametes of the same organisms?

What is 25 chromosomes.
500

Enzymes are very specific; therefore, during a reaction that includes an enzyme, the enzyme is changed and can not be used again.

False.

Enzymes are very specific. (Lock and Key Model)

The enzyme is unchanged. The substrate is changed and becomes your product.

Enzymes can be used repeatedly unless denatured.
