Cells
Prokaryote Cell
simple cells, no nucleus, no membrane-bound organelle.
what is solute
material that is being dissolved
autotrophs
any organism that can make its own food
2 different alleles (Aa)
DNA traits
double stranded, bases A T C G, sugar-deoxyribose, original, stays in nucleus.
Eukaryote cell
complex cells, have a nucleus, have membrane-bound organelles.
what is solvent
material that is doing the dissolving
heterotrophs
organisms that cant make their own food
Homozygous
2 of the same alleles (AA or aa)
RNA Traits
single stranded, bases A U C G, ribose, copy of DNA, moves out of nucleus.
What do plant cells HAVE and animal cells DONT HAVE
cell wall, chloroplasts, a large centeral vacuole
what is hypertonic?
a solution that causes a cell to shrink due to osmosis.
photosynthesis
the process by which light energy is converted into chemical energy
more powerful allele
DNA to RNA to ??
protein
what does the mitochondria do
provides energy for the cell and turns sugar into atp during cellular respiration
what is hypotonic?
a solution that causes a cell to swell.
photosynthesis equation
CO2 + H2O = C6 H12 O6 + O2
recessive
less powerful allele
transcription
DNA copies into RNA
what membrane-bound organelle(s) can be found in eukaryotic cells?
mitochondria, chloroplast, lysosomes, vacuole, golgi, ER, ect. (any of these)
diffusion
the movement of particles from high to low concentration
cellular respiration equation
C6 H12 O6 + O2 = CO2 + ATP
dominant/recessive cross
cross involving 1 trait in which the alleles may be do,inant and/or recessive
translation
every 3 letters of RNA are used to make an amino acid
