Atoms and Subatomic Particles
The three subatomic particles and their charges.
Protons: positive
Neutrons: neutral/no charge
Electrons: negative
This property of water allows for some bugs to walk across the surface of water.
What is surface tension?
The main component of the cell membrane, organized into two layers.
What are phospholipids?
G1, S, G2, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase + Cytokinesis
The balanced equations for both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Cellular Respiration: C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O
The piece of information from the periodic table that indicates the number of protons.
What is the atomic number?
The pH range for acids, bases, and neutral solutions
Acids: 0-6.9
Neutral Solutions: 7
Bases: 7.1-14
These three processes are all examples of passive transport.
The difference between cytokinesis in animal cells and plant cells.
Plant cells form a cell plate which integrates with the cell wall to divide the cytoplasm.
This is the overall goal for photosynthesis.
What is generating stable food molecules to store energy?
The number of each type of subatomic particle within an atom of sodium.
p+: 11
n0: 12
e-: 11
These properties of water rely on hydrogen bonding between atoms.
What are cohesion and adhesion?
The difference between active and passive transport.
Active Transport: Moves substances against the concentration gradient (low to high) using energy
Passive Transport: Moves substances along the concentration gradient (high to low) without using energy
This step of the M phase results in the separation of sister chromatids.
This step produces the most ATP during cellular respiration and occurs in this part of the mitochondria.
What are the ETC and the cristae (inner mitochondrial membrane)?
The type of bond that results from an unequal sharing of electrons.
What is a polar covalent bond?
This type of ion is present in high quantities in acidic solutions.
What is hydrogen ions?
This type of solution results in animal cells bursting while plant cells actually prefer this type of environment.
What is a hypotonic solution?
These organelles are responsible for creating the spindle fibers during cell division.
This type of organism requires the ingestion of material to generate energy.
What is a heterotroph?
This type of bond forms between a metal and nonmetal, resulting in a highly organized, crystalline compound.
A solution with a pH of 5 is this many times more acidic than one with a pH of 6.
What is 10?
This active transport process occurs when the cell membrane draws inwards while closing around material on the outside of the cell.
What is endocytosis?
These three review steps are responsible for preventing cells from dividing too frequently.
What are the G1, G2, and M checkpoints?
These types of organism can undergo the process of cellular respiration.
What are heterotrophs and autotrophs?
