What is to decrease the activation energy of reactions within an organism
300
What is the difference between a control variable and the dependent variable? (Don't just give me the definition of each.)
What is the control does not change while the dependent is changed.
300

True or False: Macromolecules are found in most, but not all, living things.
What is False
400
What is a polysaccharide?
What is a complex sugar
400
In the second step of the lock and key model, what happens to the substrate's bonds?
What is they weaken
400
What is the difference between an independent variable and the dependent variable? (Don't just give me the definition.)
What is the independent variable is changed by the scientists and the dependent variable is changed by the independent variable.
400
Which organelle processes, sorts, and delivers proteins?
What is golgi apparatus/golgi bodies
500
A large molecule made up of small molecules is known as what?
What is a polymer

What is nucleotides
500
In the third step of the lock and key model, what does the catalyzed reaction release from the enzyme?
What is products
500
What is the difference between a hypothesis and a conclusion?
What is a hypothesis is what you think will happen (future tense); a conclusion is what happened (past tense)
500
What is the difference between a lysosome and a vesicle?`
What is: a lysosome breaks down minerals, wastes, and food components; a vesicle divides and transports materials
