100
A substance that is able to speed up a reaction.
What is a catalyst?
100
Scale of values that identifies a substance as acidic, neutral, or basic.
What is pH?
100
Identify this structure:
What is the nucleus?
100
The process identified by:
6CO2 + 6H2O + light => C6H12O6 + 6O2
What is photosynthesis?
100
This structure carries all the genetic information for an organism.
What is a chromosome?
200
A substance that is acted upon by an enzyme.
What is a substrate?
200
Group of compounds with a Carbon-Hydrogen bond in the central atom.
What are organic compounds?
200
Part of the cell that is made of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins.
What is the cell membrane?
200
C6H12O6 + 6O2 => 6CO2 + 6H2O = 36 ATP
describes this process
What is Cellular Respiration?
200
G1, S, and G2 make up this part of the cell's life cycle.
What is Interphase?
300
Condition of enzymes when they have been changed by pH & temperature.
What is denature?
300
Group of macromolecules that includes substances such as glucose, cellulose, and amylose.
What are carbohydrates?
300
This is the structure responsible for glucose production in some organisms.
What is a chloroplast?
300
ATP stands for this
What is Adenosine Triphosphate?
300
These are the four stages of Mitosis & Meiosis.
What are Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase?
400
Model that describes why enzymes are specific to a substrate.
What is the Lock-and-Key Model?
400
Substances that are made up of a repeating sequence nucleotides with different nitrogen bases.
What are nucleic acids?
400
This is the structure responsible for the production of Adenosine Triphosphate in some organisms.
What is a mitochondria?
400
Type of respiration commonly performed by yeast.
What is alcoholic fermentation?
400
Process where a parent cell eventually gives rise to two (2) genetically identical daughter cells.
What is mitosis?
500
The reaction:
Lactase (enzyme) + Lactose => glucose + galactose+ Lactase (enzyme)
works because enzymes can be used over and over again.
What is recycled?
500
This is a diagram of an amino acid.
It is the monomer of these macromolecules.
What are proteins?
500
Process of turning on or off genes in an undifferentiated cell so that it becomes a specific cell type.
What is cell specialization?
500
Fermentation process in animals, which results in a burning sensation in muscles.
What is lactic acid fermentation?
500
In this process, a parent cell starts out as a diploid (2n) cell, but eventually ends up with four (4) genetically unique haploid (n) daughter cells.
What is meiosis?
