Characteristics of Living Things
When you get hot, you sweat. This is an example of this
Maintaining Homeostasis
Eukaryotic Cells store their DNA where?
The Nucleus
Proteins
This type of transport requires little to no energy
Passive transport
All living things store their genetic information in this macromolecule
DNA
This boundary is used to control the movement of substances into and out of the cell
cell membrane
An enzyme decreases this to increase the rate of chemical reactions
activation energy
In a ________ solution the cell will shrink
hypertonic
These are the basic units of structure and function of all living things
Cells
Both Plant Cells and Prokaryotic cells have this structure in common
Cell Wall
Electrons are shared in this sort of bond
Covalent bond
In this form of cell transport, the cell forms a vesicle to bring in a large particle outside of the cell
Exocytosis
Many organisms do this through division but multi-cellular organisms typically need a partner to manage this characteristic of living things
Reproduce
When this organelle is full of water, wastes and ions, plants are able to hold themselves up against the force of gravity.
vacuole (central vacuole)
Enzymes only work under very specific conditions. If either temperature or _______ change, the enzyme will stop working properly
pH
In this form of transport, channel proteins are inserted into the cell membrane to allow polar molecules, like water, to cross.
Facilitated diffusion
Unlike in pokemon, this characteristic of living things occurs only to populations not individuals
evolution
The pancreas produces large numbers of enzymes. Due to this, the pancreas has a large number of what organelle?
Ribosome
Places near large bodies of water often have more mild winter and summers. This is due to which property of water?
High heat capacity
The properties of this macromolecule makes the cell membrane semipermeable (selectively permeable)
phospholipid
