How do we define life?
If a person body temperature drop below the normal range,what might their body do to restore balance?
Shivering
A cell is the smallest basic unit of life that is responsible for literally every living thing.
What is osmosis?
The diffusion of water through selectively permeable(if something can get through anything) membrane.
Why is photosynthesis important?
It provides oxygen for us to breath and produces glucos, which is the energy source for plants and other living things.
What is the purpose of Cellular respiration?
The overall purpose of cellular respiration is to break down glucose and release energy in the form of ATP , which cells use to performs their functions.
True or False: Heredity traits passed from parent to offspring
True
Do both plant cells and animal cells have a cell membrane AND a cell wall?
No, only plant cells have both, animal cells have only a cell membrane.
What is the overall goal of cell boundaries?
To reach equilibrium
What processes are included in photosynthesis?
What cycles are in Cellular Respiration?
Glycolisis , The krebs cycle and the Electron transport chain
What is a characteristic of a frogs life cycle?
Growth development / cellular organization
What organelle would represent "The subway"?
Endoplasmic Reticulum
What is the def of Hypertonic?
Is more concentrated than the cell. The solution on the outside i higher so water will go out to dulute it.
What are the outputs of Photosynthesis?
Glucose and oxygen
What are the outputs of Cellular Respiration?
ATP and H20
If an artic fox closes his eyes to block the wind out of his eyes, what type of characteristic is that?
Response to stimuli / Adapt and Evolve
What organelle would represent " The clean-up crew"?
Lysosomes
What is the def of Hypotonic?
Less concentrated than the cell. Concentration of the insicde is high so they will absorb water to reach equilibruim.
What are the inputs of photosynthesis?
Light , carbon dioxide and water
What are the inputs of Celullar respiration?
Glucose and oxygen
What are the 7 characteristics of life?
Celullar organization , Adapt and Evolve , Growth and development , Response to Stimuli , Reproduction , Metabolism and energy and Homeostasis.
Name at least 5 organelles and a small despriction of each one. Each time you do this question, increase the number of organelles you list.
Cell membrane - Controls what enters and leaves while protecting it.
Nucleus - Contains DNA , manages cell growth, reproduction , and function.
Endoplasmic Reticulum - Help make and transpost proteins and fats.
Ribosomes - Assemble proteins
Mitochondria - Converts nutrients into energy
Vacoules - Storage
Cell wall - Provides structure and protection
Chloroplasts - Performs photosynthesis during daylight
Nucleolus - Produces ribosomes
Lysosomes - The digestive system of the cell
Golgi apparatus - Packages and ships proteins in the cell
Cytoplasm - This is where all the organelles lay in (jelly like)
Flagellum - A tail to help movement.
What is the def of Isotonic?
Is balanced between the cell and the outside solution, so it has reaches Equilibrium
