Lipids are insoluble in water because they are this.
What is non-polar or hydrophobic?
100
The movement of solutes from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration until equilibrium is reached is called this.
What is diffusion?
100
This organelle is the site of cellular respiration, where ATP, the main energy currency of the cell, is made.q
What is the mitochondrion?
100
Mushrooms and yeast, from the Fungi Kindgom, have a nuclei and membrane-bound organelles, so they are known as this.
What are eukaryotes.
200
Chains of an isomer of glucose make up this polysaccharide found in plant cell walls.
What is cellulose?
200
Plants contain mostly unsaturated fats, which have one or more of these in their hydrocarbon chains.
What are double-bonds?
200
Simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion require no energy input to proceed. However, facilitated diffusion reaches its maximum rate when the carrier protein becomes this.
What is saturated?
200
The rough endoplasmic reticulum has these embedded in it.
What are ribosomes?
200
Plants harness the energy of the sun to make ATP and glucose, so they are this type of organism.
What is an autotroph?
300
It is the ration of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in carbohydrates.
What is C6:H12:O6?
300
These kind of fats contain no carbon-carbon double bonds.
What are saturated fats?
300
The sodium-potassium pump transports sodium out of the cell and potassium into the cell against this.
What is their concentration gradient?
300
The nucleus is surrounded by this double lipid bilayer. Don't try to mail it.
What is the nuclear envelope?
300
According to the endosymbiont theory, these two organelles in eukaryotes arose from a mutually beneficial relationship between a single-celled organism and the bacteria living inside it.
What are mitochondria and chloroplasts?
400
Starch in plants, and glycogen in animals, are branched polymers of this monosaccharide.
What is glucose?
400
Three fatty acids attach to this backbone to make a triglyceride.
What is glycerol?
400
This could happen to a cell placed in a hyposmotic solution.
What is it could burst (lysis)?
400
Ribosomes are made by this organelle, which can easily be seen under the microscope as a dark spot within the nucleus.
What is the nucleolus?
400
It says that all living things are made of one or more cells, cells are the smallest unit of life, and that cells only arise from existing cells.
What is Cell Theory?
500
The bonds that hold subunits of polysaccharides together are known as this.
What are glycosidic bonds/linkages?
500
Instead of three fatty acid chains, phospholipids have two fatty acid tails and this type of phosphate-containing head.
What is polar?
500
This type of co-transport involves the transport of two different molecules in the same direction--one molecule with/down its concentration gradient, which drives the coupled transport of another molecule against its concentration gradient.
What is symport?
500
Plants have these three organelles that are not found in animal cells.
What are cell walls, chloroplasts, and central vacuoles?
500
The six kingdoms of life.
What are Bacteria, Archae, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia?
