Macromolecules
Monosaccharides - simple sugars like Glucose, Galactose, Fructose.
What is a Monomer
This famous biologist discovered the name "Cell"
Who is Robert Hooke
maintaining a steady internal environment, when external changes or also known as "ballance"
What is Homeostasis
Long threadlike appendages on the surface of the living cell
What is flagella
Conversion of glucose and oxygen into ATP (energy) with water and carbon dioxide as byproducts.
What is Cellular Respiration
This breaks down polymers by adding an H₂O molecule.
what is Hydrolysis
a device that uses a beam of electrons to magnify a specimen with a magnification of 500,000 to 5 million
What is an Electron Microscope
movement of particles from an area of HIGH concentration to an area of LOW concentration.
What is Diffusion
One large water vacuole in plant cells or Rare and smaller in animal cells.
what is a Vacuoles
When energy is converted there is a portion “lost” as heat
What is 2nd Law or Entropy
These are compounds made of small carbon monomers called amino acids
What are Proteins
A Jello-like fluid inside of the cell filling in all intracellular areas
What is Cytoplasm
Phosphate Head that has a strong bond to water molecules
what is Hydrophilic
a flattened stack of tubular membranes but is used by proteins and packages them for distribution outside the cell
What is Golgi Apparatus
This phase of photosynthesis Occurs in thylakoids of chloroplast. The pigment absorbs energy from sunlight.
What is The Light-Dependent Reaction
fats that have long chains with no double bonds that are solid at room temperature
What are Saturated fats
This thing does not have a nucleus and no membrane-bound organelles
What is a Prokaryotes
binds to extracellular molecules to activate intracellular processes.
What are Receptor Proteins
highly folded inner membrane surrounded by an outer membrane
What is Mitochondria
3 steps (Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle)
What is the Electron Transport Chain
A complex macromolecules that store and transmit genetic information
What is Nucleic Acids
A membrane made of hydrophilic heads & hydrophobic tails in a double layer surrounding the cell
What is Cell (Plasma) Membrane
A cell that surrounds a substance on the outside and encloses it with a portion of the cell membrane
What is Endocytosis
Found in animal cells and some protists with a Group of microtubules and a function of aid in cell division
what is Centrioles
This occurs in cytoplasm, and Glucose converted to produce 2 ATP/energy and pyruvate.
What is glycolysis
