Photosynthesis
The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight and uses it to make food
Photosynthesis
The cell is the basic unit of structure and function.
All living things are made of Cells.
All cells come from pre existing cells.
What is the Cell Theory?
This pigment in plants that collects light and reflects green back to the eye.
what is chlorophyll?
The process of making ATP with oxygen present
what is Aerobic respiration
The two main stages of the cell cycle
What is Interphase, Mitosis phase
The total number of cells in an organism increases as a result of what?
what is mitosis?
The two reactants of photosynthesis
what are Carbon Dioxide and water
Adenosine triPHOSPHATE, or ATP is made of this biomolecule.
what is a Nucleic Acid?
Obtain energy (either directly or indirectly) from the energy of sunlight that is captured during photosynthesis.
what are all living things?
ATP is produced through cellular respiration in this organelle
What are the mitochondria?
the cell cycle, growing, DNA synthesis, cell functions all happen in this phase.
what is interpphase?
Within the nucleus, DNA and proteins form threadlike structures called what?
Chromosomes.
During photosynthesis, plants and some other organisms absorb energy from the sun and use the energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into this carbohydrate and this gas.
what are glucose and oxygen?
Allcock's favorite kind of fermentation occurs with no oxygen, used to make wine and beer.
what is alcohol fermentation?
The cell cycle is regulated with proteins and these.
what are checkpoints?
In the Cellular respiration activity, pain and weakness or "the burn" felt from exercising is due to this.
what is lactic acid?
Cell division allows organisms to what?
what is grow, repair damaged structures, and asexual reproduction?
sister chromatids are held together by what?
what are centromeres.
The Product of photosynthesis stores energy as this biomolecule?
what is a carbohydrate?
DNA codes for amino acids, the monomer of this building and repair biomolecule.
what is protein?
The energy currency of the cells of all living things.
What is ATP?
also acceptable
Adenosine Triphosphate
When oxygen is not available, cells can produce smaller amounts of ATP this way.
what is anaerobic respiration?
also acceptable: What is fermentation?
A cell’s nucleus divides into two new nuclei during mitosis, but the rest of the cell divides in two during what?
Cytokinesis.
The two rod-like parts that make up a chromosome and are held together by centromeres.
what are Chromatids?
Chlorophyll traps energy from sunlight and stores it as what kind of energy?
Chemical energy.
PMAT stands for (in order).
what is Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
The products of photosynthesis are the what of cellular respiration.
what are the reactants?
This product of cellular respiration is the main reactant in photosynthesis as it is removed from the atmosphere.
what is carbon dioxide?
Proteins regulate the cell cycle. When these fail uncontrolled cell growth can happen, leading to this.
What is cancer?
The chromosomes attach to spindle fibers and line up along the middle of the cell during this mitotic stage.
what is Metaphase?
We get what we need to power our cells when we consume this reactant of cellular respiration?
what is glucose?
these hydrophobic, molecules are made not of monomers but glycerol and long chain fatty acids.
what is a lipid?
Interphase, the longest stage of the cell cycle is broken up into these three stages.
what are gap 1, synthesis, and gap 2?(g1, S, g2)
In cellular respiration, carbon dioxide, water, and ATP are called this.
what are products.
Chromatin condenses during what?
Prophase.
Chromatids separate during what?
Anaphase.
This requirement of photosynthesis us not a "reactant" because it is not changed or used up.
what is sunlight?
One major reason human cells have evolved to depend on aerobic, and not anaerobic respiration.
what is aerobic respiration is more efficient than anaerobic respiration or fermentation.
or
what is aerobic makes more ATP
This gas released by yeast during fermentation causes bread to rise.
what is carbon dioxide?
The main difference between fermentation and cellular respiration
Fermentation does not require oxygen, while cellular respiration does.
New nuclear envelope forms during what?
Telophase
DNA replication ensures daughter cells in mitosis have this quality.
what is identical?
