What is the sun?
100
The diffusion of water through a semi-permeable membrane.
What is Osmosis?
100
During this phase in the cell cycle the cell makes a copy of its DNA.
What is interphase?
100
Sacs formed by pieces of the cell membrane
What are vesicles?
200
The place where glucose, in the presence of oxygen, is converted into energy.
What is the mitochondrion?
200
Plants need carbon dioxide, water, and this to create food.
What is sunlight?
200
The process in which small particles move through a membrane from a region of high concentration to low concentration.
What is diffusion?
200
The four stages of cell division are called.
What is mitosis?
200
The human body has this number of pairs of chromosomes.
What is 23?
300
The type of molecule that stores the energy created by cellular respiration.
What is ATP (adenosine triphosphate)?
300
The organelle where photosynthesis takes place.
What is a chloroplast?
300
Sugars and other small particles go in and out of the cell through these small passageways in the membrane.
What are channels?
300
Chromosomes line up at the cell's equator during this phase.
What is metaphase (or mitosis phase 2)?
300
The process of cell division in prokaryotes.
What is binary fission?
400
The creation of energy from food without the use of oxygen.
What is fermentation?
400
The reason plants convert sunlight into glucose.
What is to make food for themselves.
400
Endocytosis and exocytosis are examples of this process.
What is active transport?
400
A cells' chromosomes are copied during this stage.
What is prophase (or mitosis phase 1)?
400
The buildup of this substance in causes muscle fatique and a burning sensation.
What is lactic acid.
500
The reason animals need plants more than plants need animals.
The planet has lots of carbon dioxide and water, but animals cannot get oxygen or glucose without plants.
500
The name of the pigment in plants that allows it to absorb light energy.
What is cholorphyll?
500
The movement of substances across cell membranes that require the cell to use energy.
What is active transport?
500
Chromotids separate and move to opposite sides of a cell during this stage.
What is telophase (or mitoisis stage 4)?
