Long term relationship where one organism benefits and the other organism is hurt or harmed.
Parasitism
What happens when an enzyme is exposed to temperatures high above its optimal range?
the enzyme becomes denatured
What type of cell is a chloroplast found in?
Eukaryote; plant cell
How many Chromosomes are in each daughter cell at the end of Mitosis
46
A species of Deer is separated by a mountain. One group develops white fur over time. The other undergoes gray fur over time. Now, the two deer cannot mate. What process did the deer undergo
Geographic Speciation/Geographic Isolation
How much energy is passed on from one trophic level to the next?
10%
The process by which water moves through the cell membrane to balance out a high concentration of solutes.
osmosis
What type of cells are Golgi Complex found in?
Eukaryotic, Plant, Animal
What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis? Give AT LEAST 3 differences.
Mitosis - 1 cell division, daughter cells are identical, daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as parents, no crossing over, somatic cells,
Meiosis - 2 cell divisions, daughter cells are unique, half as many chromosomes as parents, crossing over, gametes (sperm and egg)
The legs of crocodiles and cats have similar bone structures and develop in a similar way which indicates a common ancestor. What are these structures considered?
homologous structures
Which organisms have the most available energy in a food pyramid?
Producers
movement of ions, and molecules across cell membranes without the need for energy input
passive transport (diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis)
Cells spend most of their life in this phase of Mitosis
Interphase
What is the monomer of DNA? What are the three parts of this monomer?
Nucleotide - nitrogenous base, phosphate, sugar
What is the monomer of starch and glycogen (carbohydrates)
Monosaccharides (single sugars)
What type of relationship is it when organisms are fighting for resources.
Competition
Which type of movement across a cell's membrane requires energy supplied by ATP?
Active transport
Name 3 differences between Prokaryotic Cells and Eukaryotic Cells
Pro: Unicellular, no membrane bound Organelles, Circular DNA, smaller, less complex
Euk: Multicellular, membrane bound organelles, linear DNA, bigger, more complex
What happens during transcription?
tRNA carries amino acids to the mRNA on the ribosome. The amino acids join together to form a polypeptide chain.
What is the equation of photosythesis?
6CO2 + 6H2O + Sunlight ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Carbon Dioxide + Water + Sunlight ---> Sugar + Oxygen
