Cells
provides support and protection in a plant cell - made of cellulose
cell wall
ATP is made using oxygen and by breaking down glucose
Cellular Respiration
The process of separating DNA fragments - can be used to help solve crimes
gel electrophoresis
Data that has a numerical value - can be measured
quantitative data
a characteristic of the cell membrane that allows some materials in while preventing some materials from leaving
selectively pemeable
location of protein synthesis
ribosome
Uses simple materials to make complex compounds (like proteins)
Synthesis
Different finches had different beaks. The types of beaks made a difference in their ability to get food. These traits are....
adaptations
data that can be observed but not measured
qualitative data
Diffusion occurs here when a pregnant mom delivers oxygen and nutrients to the fetus
placenta
photosynthesis in plants and algae occurs here
chloroplast
Lysis (hydrolysis)
Glucose and Iodine can move freely in and out of cells, but starch cannot. This is due to the process of
diffusion
Variable being tested (ex. rest or exercise first in clothespin lab)
independent variable
An enzyme only works with one substrate because of its
BONUS: What are two abiotic factors that impact this?
shape/active site
BONUS: pH and temperature
chromosomes and DNA are located here
nucleus
What are the products and reactants of photosynthesis?
Products: O2 Glucose
In what lab were pigments separated into individual colors
Scientific Question: Does red light affect plant growth?
What are some control variables in this experiment?
water, soil, temperature, time plant is measured, plant type
When an individual is in a state of internal stability
homeostasis
cellular respiration is performed here
Bonus: What are the products of cellular respiration
mitochondria
CO2, H2O & ATP
all of the biological processes in an organism helps to maintain a stable internal environment (homeostasis)
metabolism
Pulse rates increase for most people after exercise. Explain why this connection between pulse rate and activity makes sense.
This connection makes sense because, as you complete an exercise, your heartbeat increases and you begin to take in more oxygen to get rid of the lactic acid building up. and to help make more ATP
Variable being measured, the results of the experiment (ex. number of clothespin squeezes in a minute)
dependent variable
Identify one way humans have negatively impacted the environment and one positive way
Negative: Pollution, deforestation, overfishing, habitat destruction, burning of fossil fuels
Positive: reforestation, renewable energy, recycling programs, environmental laws, wildlife conservation efforts,
