Macromolecules
The monomer of carbohydrates
Monosaccharides
This organelle converts sunlight into sugars.
Chloroplast
If there is equal solute concentration inside and outside the cell, the solution is this.
Isotonic
The products of respiration can be used by plants for this process.
Photosynthesis
Viruses are not classified as living because they are not made of these.
Cells
The monomer of proteins
Amino Acids
This organelle provides energy for active muscle cells.
Mitochondria
When water moves into a cell in distilled or pure water, the solution is this.
Hypotonic
The process that removes carbon dioxide and releases oxygen.
Photosynthesis
Prokaryotic cells lack these structures found in eukaryotes.
Nucleus & Membrane bound organelles
This molecule speeds up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy.
Enzyme
Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have this structure that regulates homeostasis.
Cell Membrane
Eggs shriveled in corn syrup because the solution was this.
Hypertonic
Which two reactants are needed for cellular respiration?
Glucose & Oxygen
Are viruses considered living, non living or dead?
Non living
These macromolecules contain nitrogen unlike carbohydrates or lipids. But do not contain Phosphorus.
Proteins
This structure in plants stores water and provides rigidity.
Central Vacuole
If a cell is placed in saline and stays the same size, the solution is called this.
An ecological pyramid narrows because energy does this at each level.
Decreases
Why do scientists say that viruses cannot reproduce?
They cannot reproduce on their own or without a host cell.
Animals store most of their excess energy as this type of molecule.
Lipid/ Fat
This organelle breaks down the nucleus during apoptosis.
Lysosome
This type of diffusion uses protein channels without energy.
Facilitated Diffusion
If producers have 10,000 J of energy, only this much energy is available to a primary consumer.
1000 J
