Anatomical Directions
This term refers to a structure being closer to the head.
Superior
This is the term for an atom that has lost or gained electrons and carries a charge.
Ion
This molecule is known as the "energy currency" of the cell.
ATP
This fluid is the viscous, syruplike fluid found inside the cell.
Cytoplasm
This is the phase of the cell cycle where the cell spends most of its time growing and preparing to divide.
Interphase
This directional term means a structure is further away from the point of attachment to the trunk.
Distal
These are the three components of a nucleotide: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and what else?
Nitrogenous Base
This law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only changed in form.
1st Law of Thermodynamics
These "water-loving" heads of phospholipids face the outward surfaces of the membrane. (hydrophilic OR hydrophobic)
Hydrophilic
During this phase of mitosis, the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
Metaphase
This body cavity, located in the posterior aspect, contains the brain. (The ___ cavity)
This is the most common form of lipid in the body, used for long-term energy storage in adipose tissue.
Triglyceride
These biological catalysts accelerate chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy.
Enzymes
This type of diffusion involves small, nonpolar molecules moving directly through the lipid bilayer.
Simple Diffusion
This is the process of "programmed cell death".
This plane divides the body into left and right portions.
Midsaggital plane
This specific bond forms between water molecules and causes surface tension.
Hydrogen Bonds
In this stage of cellular respiration, which occurs in the cytosol, glucose is broken down into two pyruvate molecules.
Glycolysis
This is the specific "voltage" of the Resting Membrane Potential of a cell at rest. (number)
-70 mv
During this specific phase of mitosis, the sister chromatids are pulled apart by spindle fibers and move toward opposite ends of the cell.
Anaphase
Question: This directional term means "away from the midline" of the body, such as the relationship of the thumb to the pinky when the body is in the standard anatomical position.
Lateral
Proteins are organized into four levels of hierarchy. This specific level of structure is the unique three-dimensional shape (conformation) of a single polypeptide chain. (A ___ structure)
Tertiary Structure
This stage of glucose oxidation occurs twice per glucose molecule and takes place in the mitochondrial matrix.
Citric Acid (Krebs) cycle
This process moves large substances out of the cell via a vesicle fusing with the plasma membrane.
Exocytosis
These structures at the end of a cell organize the microtubules to pull chromosomes apart during division.
Centrosomes (or centrioles)
