100
Any substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances.
What is an element?
100
The main method by which small molecules move across the cell membrane.
What is diffusion?
100
An organism that makes it's own food.
What is an autotroph?
100
The process by which cells obtain energy from glucose.
What is respiration?
100
The stage in which the cell grows, copies DNA, and prepares for division.
What is interphase?
200
Without this most chemical reactions in cells could not take place.
What is water?
200
The movement of materials through a cell membrane using cellular energy.
What is active transport?
200
An organism that cannot make its own food.
What is a heterotroph?
200
Where the first part of cellular respiration takes place.
What is the cytoplasm?
200
The stage of Mitosis when the centromeres split and the chromatids separate.
What is Anaphase?
300
True or False: Water is an example of an organic compound.
What is false?
300
The diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
300
All living things on Earth get their energy from this.
What is the Sun?
300
Where the second stage of cellular respiration takes place.
What is mitochondria?
300
The final stage of cell division.
What is Cytokinesis?
400
This type of protein speeds up a chemical reaction in a living thing.
What is an enzyme?
400
The movement of dissolved materials through a cell membrane without using cellular energy.
What is passive transport?
400
The two products of photosynthesis.
What are sugar and oxygen?
400
An energy-releasing process that does not require oxygen.
What is fermentation?
400
The stage of Mitosis when the chromatin condenses to form chromosomes.
What is Prophase?
500
The four types of organic molecules found in living things.
What are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids?
500
Because of this trait, the cell membrane can allow some substances to pass through while restricting others.
What is selectively permeable?
500
The photosynthesis equation.
What is carbon dioxide + water (light energy) --> Sugar + Oxygen?
