: is an organism that makes its own food using sunlight and chlorophyll; is also known as a producer
What is an Autotroph?
the energy releasing process in the mitochondria of cell which occurs when there is no more oxygen available
What is fermentation?
This is the short cut way of saying deoxyribonucleic acid
What is DNA ?
this is the second phase of the cell cycle where the nucleus starts to disappear, and the DNA condenses.... you can see the "x" shaped chromosomes in the nucleus now
what is "prophase" ?
CO2 what is this called?
What is carbon dioxide ?
... an organism that cannot make its own food; also known as a consumer
what is a heterotroph?
this is the regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo to make new cells
What is the CELL CYCLE?
what are the two new cells called that are created during the cell cycle?
What are "daughter cells" ?
this phase is where the chromosomes line up down the middle of the cell before being divided into two halves by the spindle fibers and centromeres
what is "metaphase" ?
name this equation:
C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
What is respiration?
this is the process by which a plant cell captures energy from sunlight and makes glucose
what is photosynthesis ?
how many chromosomes does a human have in every cell of their body?
46 chromosomes
this is the first phase of the cell cycle, where the cell GROWS and replicates the DNA
What is interphase?
What is the last phase of the cell cycle where the cytoplasm splits in half and two new "daughter cells" are formed
what is "cytokinesis" ?
name this equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O (w sunlight) --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
What is photosynthesis ?
this is the green pigment found in the chloroplast of plant cells which captures energy from sunlight to make glucose for the plant
What is chlorophyll?
what is the shape of a DNA molecule called?
what is a double helix?
what does replicate mean?
what is "to make copies"?
What is the energy called that is made in RESPIRATION...
What is ATP ?
Say the six steps of the CELL CYCLE in the correct order, begin with interphase......
What is interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis ?
this process occurs in the mitochondria; cells obtain the energy (ATP) from glucose when oxygen is available
What is Respiration?
This is the organelle in every cell which contains the DNA
what is the nucleus?
are threadlike structures found in the nucleus; these are formed by DNA and proteins and carry the instructions for the cell
what are "chromosomes" ?
what is the common name for
C6H12O6
What is glucose?
Name this: O2
What is oxygen ?
