Scientific Method
What type of reasoning/thinking do we typically use in hypothesis-driven science?
Deductive Reasoning
Positively charged particles, found in the nucleus
protons
This main type of biological molecule is required for energy production and includes our sugars
Carbohydrate
This group of cells consists of two domains of single celled organisms
Prokaryotes
This structure serves as the "brain" of the cell and holds DNA
nucleus
What is the first step in the Scientific Method?
The number of protons and neutrons an element contains
Mass number or atomic mass
Proteins are polymers of these substances
Amino Acids
The group of cells consists of the domain that holds plants, animals, and fungi
Eukaryotes
This is a singular, tail-like projection on some prokaryotic cells that help them move
Flagella
Falsifiable
Negatively charged ions, formed by gaining electrons
anions
These macromolecules provide our genetic blueprint
Nucleic Acids
All cell types have.... (4 options)
Cytoplasm, ribosomes, DNA, plasma membrane
This structure modifies proteins made by ribosomes
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
What type of variable do you manipulate in an experiment?
The independent variable
Substances that dissolve in water
Hydrophilic
This is a specialized protein that catalyzes biological reactions
Enzyme
These types of cells have walls and chloroplasts
Plant Cells
This organelle processes, modifies, and repackages proteins it received from the RER
Golgi Apparatus
What is a hypothesis that has been exceptionally well supported and unlikely to be altered known as?
A theory
Substances with high pH
bases
This is what we call two monosaccharides that have bonded together
Disaccharides
This states that all cells arise from existing cells and that cells are the basic unit of life
Unified Cell Theory
These structures carry substances throughout the cell and can fuse with the plasma membrane during endo- or exocytosis
Vesicles
