Cell Metabolism
The structure where cellular respiration takes place.
What are mitochondria?
The basic unit that makes up every living organism.
What is a cell?
During this phase, cells duplicate all of their DNA.
What is interphase?
When putting a microscope away, you should make sure the this lens is "active".
What is the red lens or lowest power lens?
The movement of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane without the input of energy.
What is osmosis?
What word defines as the sum total of ALL the chemical reactions that occur in our body.
What is metabolism?
The powerhouse of the cell that makes ATP.
What are mitochondria?
This process creates TWO identical daughter cells that contain the SAME number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
What is mitosis?
The 3 organelles that differentiate Plant cells from Animal cells
What is the cell wall, vacuole, and chloroplast
The movement of molecules (solutes) from a high concentration to a low concentration without the use of energy.
What is diffusion?
What are the reactants for Cellular Respiration?
What is Oxygen and glucose?
A structure that controls the cell. The Brain of the cell
What is a nucleus?
What is prophase?
Which process takes sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to make glucose and oxygen?
What is photosynthesis?
The use of transport molecules and ATP to move molecules from a low solute concentration to a high solute concentration.
What is active transport?
Why are photosynthesis and cellular Respiration a cycle?
What is the products of one are the reactants of the other?
What are the three parts of the cell theory?
What is all living things are made of cells; cells are the basic unit of life; cells come from other cells?
This phase is where two nuclei return and the chromosomes being to uncoil.
What is telophase?
What happens when a cell cannot get enough oxygen but HAS to make energy still?
What is anaerobic respiration (makes lactic acid)?
Is this an example of osmosis or diffusion: Sugar placed in a beaker of water.
What is diffusion?
What is in the chloroplast found in the LEAVES of the plant?
A structure of the cell that allows certain molecules to enter and certain molecules to leave.
What is a cell membrane?
If a cell that has 46 chromosomes goes through MEIOSIS - how many chromosomes do the daughter cells have?
What is 23 chromosomes?
How does the STRUCTURE of the mitochondria help it do its FUNCTION more efficiently?
What is the inner surface area increases with the squiggly inside (vs a straight line membrane) and the greater the surface area the more ATP can be produced at once?
Is this an example of osmosis or diffusion: Water leaving a plant cell.
What is osmosis?
