The Energy Flow
100
If a reaction occurs in a sealed container and a gas is produced, this happens to the total mass shown on a scale.
mass stays the same, no change in mass
100
This cell structure is "selectively permeable," meaning it chooses which molecules can enter or exit the system.
cell membrane
100
This body system is responsible for the removal of liquid waste (urea) and filtering the blood.
excretory system
100
This is the main genetic advantage that sexual reproduction has over asexual reproduction.
genetic variation (or diversity) in offspring, can adapt to a changing environment
100
These are the three necessary "inputs" (reactants) for the process of photosynthesis.
light, water, carbon dioxide
200
When thermal energy is added substance, the particles move in this way.
faster, further apart, less intermolecular attraction
200
Levels of biological organization in order from smallest to largest
cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism
200
type of nerve that receives stimuli from the organisms surroundings
sensory receptors/sensory neurons
200
This is the main genetic advantage that asexual reproduction has over sexual reproduction.
quicker, no need to find mate, exact copy of parent (if environment is stable)
200
This gas is a specific chemical "waste product" of cellular respiration that plants then use for photosynthesis.
carbon dioxide
300
This type of reaction absorbs energy from its surroundings, often causing the temperature to drop.
endothermic
300
This specific organelle contains digestive enzymes to break down waste and "clean up" the cell.
lysosome
300
When designing a prosthetic limb, the need for the limb to be "lightweight" is a criterion, while the "limited budget of $500" is this
constraint
300
In a Punnett Square, if one parent is homozygous dominant and the other is homozygous recessive this is the percentage of offspring that will be heterozygous.
100%

food web
400
When two clear liquids are mixed and a solid "precipitate" forms, this is the best evidence that this type of change occurred.
chemical reaction
400
The organelle that uses the code in genetic material to synthesize proteins
ribosomes
400
These two body systems must interact to provide oxygen to your muscles during a long-distance run.
respiratory and circulatory systems
400
These segments of DNA located on chromosomes code for specific proteins.
genes
400
A producer in this ecosystem
phytoplankton and ice algae
500
Using computational thinking, if the reactants side of an equation has 4 atoms of Oxygen, the products side must have this many atoms of Oxygen to be balanced.

500
the organelle that performs photosynthesis
chloroplast
500
This process describes how food molecules are rearranged through chemical reactions to provide the building blocks for an organism's growth.
metabolism
500
This is the specific three-step "pathway" or sequence that explains how a physical trait (like hair color) actually appears in an organism, starting from the instructions in the nucleus.
Gene -> Protein -> Trait
(DNA accepted)
500
This type of respiration produces the least amount of energy from a glucose molecule because it happens without oxygen.
anaerobic respiration/fermentation
