Chapter 1
The pH scale is a measure of the concentration of this.
Hydrogen ions
These are the 4 main biomolecule categories.
Carbohydrates
Lipids
Proteins
Nucleic Acids
When the concentration of a solute is higher outside of the cell compared to the inside of a cell, the cell is said to be in this type of solution.
Hypertonic
Microtubules, Intermediate filaments, and microfilaments are all types of fibers that make up this cellular system?
Cytoskeleton
This is a specialized type of protein that speeds up chemical reactions.
Enzyme
A move from pH of 6 to pH 5 has made the solution this many time more acidic.
10x
This type of reaction is often seen during the chemical process that cells use to build large, complex molecules from smaller ones, and results in a water molecule being created.
Dehydration synthesis
This is the consequence of placing a cell in a hypotonic solution.
Cytolysis
This is a type of riveting between cells that prevents cells from easily being pulled apart and prevents multicellular organisms from easily falling apart.
Tight junctions.
This molecule provides the energy needed to carry out energy dependent processes in the cell.
