Mitosis
What is Mitosis?
A type of cell division that results in two daughter cells both be identical in every aspect.
What is photosynthesis?
Plants use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.
What is Osmosis?
A process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentrations on each side of the membrane.
What comes first cells or molecules?
Molecules
What is another name for somatic cells?
Body cells
What is cellular respiration?
A series of chemical reactions that break down glucose to produce ATP.
The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration.
What is tissue?
Group of cells working together that have a similar function
How many chromosomes do humans have?
46 chromosomes
What is the Calvin Cycle?
The cycle of enzyme-catalyzed dark reactions of photosynthesis that occurs in the chloroplasts of plants and in many bacteria and that involves the fixation of carbon dioxide and the formation of a 6-carbon sugar.
Concentration is?
The ratio or percentage amount of solute in a solvent.
What is an example of each level of organization?
atom- carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
What are some ways Multicellular Organisms Use Mitosis?
1. growth
2. development
3. repair
What is the Krebs cycle?
The sequence of reactions by which most living cells generate energy during the process of aerobic respiration.
When does diffusion stop?
When equilibrium is reached.
Does an animal cell have a cell wall?
No
What is the only way Unicellular organisms use Mitosis?
reproduction
What is the difference between Aerobic vs. Anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration occurs with oxygen and releases more energy but more slowly. Anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen and releases less energy but more quickly.
What does Hyper mean?

Do both plant and animal cells have a cell membrane?
Yes, they both contain cell membranes.
