What is Photosynthesis?
The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.
What is the function of the nucleus?
Controls all activates "the command center"
During which phase of Mitosis do the centrums split?
Anaphase
Which type of cell membrane transport requires energy?
Which biomolecule can store the most amount of energy and why?
Lipids can store the most amount of energy because it has the largest percentage of carbon to carbon bonds.
Where does Photosynthesis take place?
In the Chloroplasts, which are located in the pants leaves.
What does the ribosome make?
Proteins
During which stage of Mitosis does Cytokinesis usually occur in animals?
Telophase
Osmosis is the process that?
Equalizes the concentration of solute particles by the movement of water molecules.
What are the functions of Enzymes?
Enzymes are a protein that act as a catalyst any chemical that speeds up a reaction but is not charged by it.
What is cellular respiration?
What does the Golgi body do?
Transports proteins
What moves the chromatids during Mitosis?
Spindle fibers
What requires the input of energy to move molecules from a low concentration to a high concentration?
Active transport
How do enzymes aid in chemical reaction?
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by artificially bonding them and continue doing that because they don't change with more reactions.
Where does cellular respiration take place?
Mitochondria
Where in the body is the plasma membrane located?
Membrane surrounding the cell.
What is the correct order of the 4 stages of Mitosis?
1. Prophase, 2. Metaphase, 3. Anaphase, 4. Telephase
What is Endocytosis?
The movement of relatively large quantities of material into a cell at one time.
What are co-factors and how does it influence enzyme function?
Co-factors are inorganic molecules that connect to enzymes which allow it to activate. They are typically vitamins and minerals.
How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration alike?
They both have 2 processes that need each other. Photosynthesis builds the sugars that cellular respiration breaks down.
What is the definition of lysosome?
Cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell.
The nuclear membrane dissolves during what phase?
Prophase
What is Exocytosis?
The movement of relatively large quantities of material out of a cell at one time.
Explain their basic properties and structure?
Enzymes are catalysts that are specifically shaped to speed up reactions of substrates they lock onto their activation site. The enzymes will take the different specific substrate and bond them on it's activation site.
