The movement of particles from an area where their concentration is HIGH to an area where their concentration is LOW. Particles moving from a crowded area to a less crowded area.
What is diffusion?
100
A process used by plants to capture light energy from the sun and change it into food.
What is photosynthesis?
100
An organisms break down of food molecules to release stored energy.
What is cellular respiration?
100
Contains information that tells a cell what proteins to make.
What is DNA?
100
The complicated process that makes sure that each new cell gets a copy of each chromosome.
What is mitosis?
200
The diffusion of water.
What is osmosis?
200
Molecules in plants that absorb the suns energy.
What is pigments?
200
In a eukaryotic cell, cellular respiration takes place in this organelle.
What is mitochondria?
200
Prokaryotic cells undergo this process to create new cells.
What is binary fission?
200
Centrioles appear in prophase in animal cells only. This will attach here.
What are spindle fibers?
300
Sugars and amino acids are too large to pass through the cell membrane; they must travel through this by active or passive transport.
What is "protein doorway"
300
Chlorophyll is found in this plant organelle.
What is chloroplast?
300
Most of the energy released in cellular respiration is in the form of this. This helps to maintain your body's temperature.
What is heat?
300
Similar chromosomes that make up pairs of chromosomes in DNA.
What is homologous chromosomes?
300
Mitosis is the division of this.
What is the nucleus?
400
The movement of particles against the normal direction of diffusion or moving from an area of LOW concentration to an ares of HIGH concentration.
What is active transport?
400
Sci: glucose
Com: sugar
What is C6H12O6?
400
The product(s) of cellular respiration.
What is 6H2O, heat, & ATP
400
The region where two strands of DNA are attached.
What is centromere?
400
Each centromere divides. the chromosomes separate and move out towards the poles.
What is anaphase?
500
When large particles must leave the cell, the vesicle they are in travels to the cell membrane, fuses with it and then the cell release the particles.
What is Exocytosis?
500
The biproduct of photosynthesis.
What is 6O2 (oxygen)?
500
An organisms break down of food molecules to release stored energy without the use of oxygen.
What is fermentation?
500
Pairs of chromosomes humans have.
What is 23?
500
The process of a cell splitting in two after mitosis is done. The result is two identical cells.
