Characteristics of Life
This characteristic of life has organisms passing down their genetic material.
What is reproduction
What are prokaryotes
This organelle controls what enters and leaves the cell
What is the cell membrane
This type of transport requires energy
What is active transport
The product of cell cycle and mitosis
What are 2 identical daughter cells.
DNA stands for
What is deoxyribonucleic acid
What is making proteins
made during transcription
What is mRNA
When a tadpole becomes a frog
What is growth and development
These type of cells have membrane bound organelles
What are eukaryotes
This organelle is the site of photosynthesis
What are chloroplast
This is the movement of water across a membrane
What is osmosis
The phases of mitosis in order
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
Cytokinesis is not in mitosis.
Guanine pairs with this base.
What is Cytosine
What is transcription
Carries the amino acid to the ribosome
What is tRNA
The process of keeping your internal checkpoints happy
What is homeostasis
These cells have chloroplast and a cell wall.
What are plant cells
This organelle is the site of cellular respiration
What are mitochondria
This transport is passive and uses a channel protein
What is facilitate diffusion
The result is cancer.
What is uncontrolled cell growth.
The shape of the DNA molecule.
What is a double helix
This step makes a polypeptide
What is translation
Has an anticodon
What is tRNA
Viruses do not have a cell membrane so they do not have this characteristic.
What is being made of cells
These cells have a cell wall but no chloroplast
What are fungal cells
This organelle modifies and ships proteins
What is the Golgi apparatus
This transport uses a vesicle to transport large molecules out of the cell.
What is exocytosis
What is S phase
What is DNA replication
This step is disrupted if there is an error in the DNA sequence.
(transcription, translation, or protein folding)
What is transcription
Has codons
What is mRNA
Viruses need to use this organelle of their host to make their viral particles.
What are ribosomes
These cells are in the human body but have no nuclei
What are red blood cells.
These organelles are only found in animal cells
What are centrioles
What is hypertonic
What is non-disjunction
The DNA sample is 40% adenine and 40% of this base.
What is thymine.
This is a silent mutation
When the mutation does not affect the working folding/structure of the protein.
Alternative: The amino acid sequence remains the same.
The ribosome is made of this
What is rRNA
