Characteristics of Life
Cells
Organelles
Biomolecules
Passive vs. Active
100
The number of characteristics of life.
What is seven?
100
The number that represents how many types of cells there are.
What is two?
100
This organelle is responsible for producing energy.
What is the mitochondria?
100
This biomolecules is used for quick energy.
What are carbohydrates?
100
Things moving from high to low concentrations are doing this type of transport.
What is passive?
200
The ability to maintain balance.
What is homeostasis?
200
The prefix "Eu" translated.
What is true?
200
This organelle holds the DNA in eukaryotes.
What is the nucleus?
200
These biomolecules make up many different structures in the cell. They also make up the bulk of muscle mass.
What are proteins.
200
This requirement of active transport is not needed by passive transport.
What is energy?
300
All life is made from this.
What are cells?
300
This is "free-floating" in the nucleoid of prokaryotes.
What is DNA?
300
Plants are known to have this sugar-producing organelle.
What is a chloroplast?
300
This biomolecules is very unlikely to be found in the cell membrane.
What are nucleic acids?
300
This type of transport moves from H --> L but requires a protein channel.
What is facilitated diffusion?
400
This characteristics provides the reason life can move.
What is energy?
400
All cells have a cell membrane, cytoplasm and ribosomes. This one is missing.
What is DNA and RNA?
400
This organelle might have an acidic environment for cellular digestion.
What is a lysosome?
400
Fats have this many times more energy per gram than carbohydrates.
What is two times.
400
This type of transport moves large quantities of things outside the cell.
What is exocytosis?
500
This characteristic is shared with non-living viruses.
What is the ability to adapt?
500
This is the distinguishing feature of prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
What is the Nucleus? (also membrane bound organelles)
500
This organelle is shared by all organisms that are living. However, it is not membrane-bound.
What are ribosomes?
500
This process puts biomolecules together by removing water.
What is dehydration synthesis?
500
This is the energy used for active transport.
What is ATP?
