Biology
The bonds that join amino acids together?
What are Peptide bonds?
This type of bond formed when electrons are shared between two atoms.
What is covalent bond?
The main greenhouse gas contributing to global warming
What is carbon dioxide?
The force that pulls objects toward Earth
The amount of particles in 1 mol of any substance
What is Avogadro's number ( 6.02 × 10^23)?
This type of RNA carries amino acids to the ribosome during translation
What is tRNA?
This calculation shows the efficiency of a reaction as a percentage
What is percent yield?
a non renewable energy source formed from decomposed plant and animal matter over millions of years
What are fossil fuels?
A material that allows electricity to flow easily.
What is a conductor?
This simple sugar is the main source of energy for cells
What is glucose?
This type of mutation changes a single nucleotide but does not alter the amino acid sequence due to the redundancy of the genetic code?
What is a silent mutation?
Reaction that release heat into the surroundings are called this
What is exothermic reaction?
The type of waste that cannot be broken down naturally and accumulates in landfills for hundreds of years
What is non-biodegradable waste?
When a rocket launches, this law explains why it moves upward
What is Newton's third law?
This type of bonding occurs when electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another, forming positive and negative ions.
What is ionic bonding?
The process that separates homologous chromosomes and creates genetic variation through independent assortment.
What is Meiosis l?
The piece of glassware used to accurately deliver variable volumes of solution during titration
What is a burette?
This measure accounts for both population size and resource consumption to estimate human environmental impact
What is ecological footprint?
A built embeds itself in a block immediately after a collision, this quantity is conserved
What is momentum?
The loss of fertile topsoil due to water, wind, or human activity is called this
What is soil erosion?
This phenomenon occurs when one allele is not completely dominant over another, producing an intermediate phenotype in heterozygotes.
What is incomplete dominance?
In the reaction N₂ + 3H₂ ⇌ 2NH₃, increasing temperature favors the reverse reaction. This is because the reaction is this type.
What is exothermic reaction?
This concept describes the maximum rate at which an ecosystem can sustainably produce biomass
What is ecological productivity/carrying capacity?
A system with zero total momentum can still do this
What is have kinetic energy?
An object is momentarily at rest but accelerating. This can only occur at this type of point of point in it's motion.
What is a turning point?
