List the location(s) of membranes in prokaryotic cells. 

outside only (cell membrane) 

100

What is the function of the chloroplast?

photosynthesis

100

List 5 examples of carbohydrates

cellulose, chitin, glycogen, glucose, starch

100

What is happening in this diagram? 

enzyme is breaking a substrate into a product. 

100

List the 3 functions of the roots.

storage, absorption of water, anchor plant in place

100

What is the function of the excretory system

filter blood and release waste

200

List 3 locations where DNA is located in a eukaryotic cell

nucleus, mitochondria and chloroplast 

200

What is the function of the nucleus

protect the DNA

200

what are the functions of starch and cellulose? 

starch-energy storage for plants

cellulose- forms the cell wall of plants

200

If the substrate in this diagram was glycogen, what would the enzyme be named? 

glycoase (begins in substrate-glycogen and ends in ase)

200

What is the weak bond?

hydrogen

200

What is the function of the endocrine system

produces hormones and enzymes

300

What process do all organisms use to make ATP?

cellular respiration

300

What two structures came from prokaryotic cells? 

mitochondria and chloroplast

300

Hormones can be what two polymers? 

lipids and proteins

300

If the substrate in the diagram are amino acids what are the products? 

proteins, enzymes, hormones

300

What property of water allows plants to transfer water from the roots to the leaves?

capillary action which combines adhesion and cohesion

300

What is the function of the circulatory system

transports nutrients and oxygen

400

What is endosymbiotic theory?

How eukaryotic cells evolved from prokaryotic cells. 

400

Where do unicellular organisms perform all chemical reactions? 

cytoplasm

400

What polymer is amylase and how do you know? 

ends in ase making it an enzyme which is a protein. 

400

Explain what is occurring in the diagram using a fact of enzymes. 

enzymes are fragile and require specific conditions. the heat denatured the enzyme so it will not work. 

400

What does xylem do? 

tissue that transports water from root to stem

400

What is the difference between hydrolysis and dehydration synthesis.

hydrolysis is adding water to break down polymers and dehydration synthesis is removing water to build polymers

500

What is the major difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? 

eukaryotic cells contain membrane bound organelles and prokaryotic do not. 

500

Which structure contains enzymes to break down things for eukaryotic cells? 

lysosomes

500

List the 4 polymers and their monomers. 

carbohydrates: monosaccharides

lipids: fatty acids and glycerol

proteins: amino acids

nucleic acids: nucleotides 

500

What is the difference between a exergonic and endergonic reaction?

exergonic reactions release extra heat as light or heat and endergonic reactions absorb energy. 

500

What is the function of the guard cells 

open and close stomata to allow gas exchange and release of water

500

How do the digestive system and the circulatory system work together? 

digestive break down food into nutrients which the circulatory system transports using blood
