400
organelle responsible for the modification of proteins produced in the cell
What is the Golgi apparatus
400
What is a condensation reaction?
one which involves the synthesis of dimers or polymers from monomers. Water is released in the process
400
When is the null hypothesis rejected when doing a t-test?
when the calculated t is greater than the critical t value

Explain the significance of surface area to volume on cell size.
As a cell increases in size, its volume grows more rapidly than its surface area. This decreased surface area to volume ratio results in a less efficient cell. It has more trouble moving material in and out, and DNA has to work much because of the increased need of proteins.

What are the stages of mitosis in order?
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
