ATP
ATP is an acronym standing for this:
What is adenosine triphosphate?
Genetic material is stored in thus organelle.
What is the nucleus?
What is endothermic?
An enzyme is type of this macromolecule.
What is protein?
What is prokaryotic?
ATP is the _____ ________ of the cell.
What is energy currency?
A cell that cannot digest its old and broken parts must necessarily be deficient in this organelle.
What are lysosomes?
A chemical reaction is happening at X rate of reaction. Increasing the temperature of the reactants would result in this rate.
What is >X rate of reaction?
This is how an enzyme speeds up a chemical reaction.
What is by lowering the activation energy?
This is the name of process by which cells reproduce asexually.
What is mitosis?
ATP molecules consist of these smaller molecules.
What are adenine, ribose, and phosphate groups?
A cell deficient in ribosomes would produce little to none of these.
What are proteins?
A reaction that stores energy, like this biological reaction, is crucial to energy cycling within any given ecosystem and is said to be _________, having absorbed more energy than it released.
What is photosynthesis, which is endothermic?
_________ are changed into ________ in an enzymatic reaction.
What are substrate and products?
Chromosomes become visible during this phase of mitosis.
What is prophase?
Once used for an energy requiring process, ATP becomes the molecule _______ and the energy used comes from this specific chemical bond.
What is ADP, and the "high energy" bond between the second and third phosphate groups.
True or false: an animal cell's central vacuole is primarily used for storage of nutrients and water as well as giving shape to the cell.
False; animal cells do not have a central vacuole.
Cellular respiration, the reaction in which glucose is broken down for energy production occurs here and is said to be __________.
Mitochondria, exothermic.
This organelle has particularly high concentration of enzymes in it, for this purpose.
What are lysosomes for the sake of digestion/breaking stuff apart?
During mitosis each cell ultimately produces these; meaning if the first cell has 8 chromosomes, then each new cell has this many chromosomes.
What are identical daughter cells and 8 chromosomes?
Neurons (nerve cells) consume more energy than bone cells, and therefore contain more of these organelles, __________, commonly called the "_____________ __ ___ ____."
What are mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell?
A lipid deficiency would particularly hinder these 2 organelles and result in little to none of this.
What is the golgi apparatus and vesicles, and import/exporting subcellular stuff, like proteins?
Open response: Since it is true that mass cannot be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction (or at all), why don't you continuously gain more mass when we eat day after day?
Mass is converted to energy and then consumed.
These 4 phenomena are ways an enzymatic reaction can be slowed down/stopped.
What are:
1. dramatic increase/decrease in temperature?
2. extreme pH levels, whether high or low?
3. a competitive inhibitor?
4. reduction/consumption of substrate concentration?
These grab hold of this at the center of each of these and pull them apart during this phase of mitosis.
What are spindle fibers, centromeres, sister chromatids, anaphase?
