This diagram shows energy flowing in only one direction
food chain
The 4 bases in RNA are
A, U, C, G
This organelle allows for molecules to move in and out of the cell
cell membrane
This molecule is too big to pass through the cell membrane
starch
This molecule speeds up reactions and cuts DNA
enzymes
These organisms allow for the flow of materials in an ecosystem
decomposers

T = 40%
This organelle controls the cell
nucleus
Adding this substance to a cell will make its cytoplasm and cell membrane shrink
salt
Many glucose molecules put together make

carrying capacity
A = 30% What is the percent of G?
G = 20%
This organelle provides the cell with storage for food and materials
vacuole
When we add this substance to starch, then we will see a blue-black color
