Macromolecules
This molecule is used as fast available energy source for the cell.
What is a carbohydrate?
This level of organization refers to a group of organisms of a single species.
What is a population?
A testable prediction about the natural world.
What is a hypothesis?
This type of transport allows solutes to move against their concentration gradient (low to high).
What is active transport?
This process allows a cell to divide into two identical daughter cells.
What is mitosis?
This molecule is used to store information.
What are nucleic acids?
The type of consumer that eats primary consumers.
What are secondary consumers?
The variable that is measured.
What is the dependent variable?
All living things are made of cells, cells are the building blocks of an organism, and all cells come from already existing cells are all apart of this theory.
What is Cell Theory?
These names of the phases of mitosis make up the acronym PMAT.
What are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase?
This property of water allows plants to absorb water from the soil.
What is capillary action?
This biogeochemical cycle includes fossil fuels and is otherwise known as the energy cycle.
What is the carbon cycle?
A well-supported explanation of the natural world.
What is a theory?
This microscope helped advance cell theory by allowing us to view the details of molecules like proteins and DNA.
What is the electron microscope?
DNA replication occurs during this phase of the cell cycle.
What is interphase(s phase)?
This is where a substrate binds to an enzyme.
What is the active site?
This organizational unit refers to populations of different species interacting with each other.
What is a community?
We repeat an experiment that we read about in a journal to verify the results.
What is replication?
This organelle is responsible for marking and transporting molecules to their final destination.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
This non-environmental process that occurs in many cells every day sometimes cause cancer.
What are random DNA-copying errors?
What is density?
This is the amount of energy that the secondary consumers store when primary producers have 592 kCal stored?
What is 5.92 kCal?
Mr. Fraser conducted an experiment addressing the influence of diet on the stable isotope ratios of rattlesnake tissues. This is the part of the scientific method Mr. Fraser followed when he made sure to feed all of the snakes the same amount of food each week even if those foods were different.
What are constants?
This structure is on the inside of a plasma membrane and keeps water from freely crossing in or out of the cell.
What are hydrophobic tails?
The nucleus must break down and divide into two identical nuclei by during mitosis before the cell can divide during this process.
What is cytokinesis?
