Organic Compounds
this organic compound is used for short term energy
What are carbohydrates?
this type of cell has bacteria as its only example
What are prokaryotes?
this structure houses DNA
What is the nucleus?
passive transport moves particles in this direction
What is high to low?
A cell with 50% water is placed in a solution with 100% pure distilled water and this will happen to the size of the cell
What is get bigger?
this organic compound is made up of amino acids
this type of cell is larger and contains membrane bound organelles
What are eukaryotes?
this structure absorbs sunlight for photosynthesis
What is the chloroplast?
this type of transport moves particles from low to high
What is active transport?
A cell is placed in salt water and this will happen to the size of the cell
What is get smaller?
This organic compound has DNA and RNA as examples
What are nucleic acids?
this type of cell has a larger vacuole, chloroplast, and a cell wall
What are plant cells?
this structure maintains homeostasis of the cell
when water is moved from high to low
What is osmosis?
A cell with 75% water is placed in a solution with 50% water and this will will happen to the cell?
What is get smaller?
This organic compound is used for long term energy storage.
What are lipids?
this type of cell makes us up, along with plants and protists
What are eukaryotes?
this cellular structure is only found in bacteria and plant cells and is used for protection
What is the cell wall?
this process requires ATP
What is active transport?
A cell with 25% water is placed in a solution with 35% water and this will happen to the size of the cell
What is get bigger?
Enzymes are a type of this organic compound.
What are proteins?
this type of cell can only be unicellular (not found in multicellular organisms)
What are prokaryotes?
this cellular structure maintains homeostasis in protists by pumping out excess water
What is the contractile vacuole?
this type of transport reaches equilibrium
What is passive transport?
A cell will always get bigger in this type of solution
What is distilled water?
