Botany
This green pigment is essential for photosynthesis
What is chlorophyll?
This condition makes it hard to breathe because the airways in your lungs become narrow and inflamed, often triggered by allergens or exercise.
What is asthma?
The gas plants take in during photosynthesis
What is carbon dioxide?
The three main greenhouse gases
What is CO2, Methane, and Water Vapor?
These structures carry genetic information.
What is a chromosome?
This part of the plant is responsible for making food using sunlight.
What is the leaf?
People with this autoimmune condition cannot eat foods containing gluten, which is found in wheat, barley, and rye, because it damages their small intestine.
The sugar produced during photosynthesis.
The effect where gases trap heat in Earth’s atmosphere.
A segment of DNA that codes for a trait.
What is a gene?
The tiny pores on the underside of leaves that allow gas exchange.
What is the stomata?
This condition occurs when your body doesn't have enough healthy red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout your body, often making you feel tired and weak.
What is anemia?
The cell organelles where photosynthesis and cellular respiration take place.
What are the chloroplasts and mitochondria?
This type of energy is trapped by greenhouse gases in Earth’s atmosphere, causing the planet to warm.
The father of genetics.
Who is Gregor Mendel?
These vessels transport glucose from the leaves to the roots.
What is the phloem?
This condition slows down your body's metabolism, causing symptoms like weight gain, feeling cold, and fatigue because your thyroid gland doesn't make enough hormones.
What is hypothyroidism?
Explain how photosynthesis and cellular respiration depend on each other.
Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in cellular respiration. Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide and water, which are used in photosynthesis.
The burning of this, along with what are the main human causes of climate change.
What is fossil fuels and deforestation?
What is a recessive gene?
Name the female reproductive part of a flower.
What is the pistil?
This chronic disease occurs when your body either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use insulin properly, causing blood sugar levels to become too high and requiring careful monitoring of diet and sometimes medication.
What is diabetes?
Write the chemical equation for cellular respiration.
What is C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂--> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O +ATP
Scientists study this type of long-term information, like temperature records and ice core samples.
What are proxy data?
This is the process named the DNA Central Dogma.
→ What is DNA → RNA → Protein
