Ecology
These organisms produce energy through photosynthesis.
What is the a producer?
A change in a species over time.
What is evolution?
Substrates are the substance on which these work.
What is an enzyme?
Active transport uses energy to move molecules ________ their concentration gradient from _______ to ________ concentration.
What is "against" their concentration gradient from low concentration to high concentration?

What is UCC address?
Two or more organisms competing for the same resource.
What is competition?
Any kind of inherited trait that improves an organism's chances of survival and reproduction in a given environment.
What is an adaptation?
Explain what is meant by "Enzymes are substrate specific"
Enzymes are specific to substrates as they have an active site which only allow certain substrates to bind to the active site.
The movement of water molecules across a cell membrane and is an example of passive transport.
What is Osmosis?
Butterflies use this body part to taste.
What is their feet?
A series of events in which one organism eats another and obtains energy. Usually written on one line.
What is a food chain?
A group of the same organism that occupies a specific area in a specific time.
What is a population?
Describe the differences between a synthesis reaction and a hydrolysis reaction.
What is: Synthesis is adding two monomers to create a polymer. Hydrolysis is breaking down a polymer into two monomers.
The passive movement of molecules along the concentration gradient.
What is diffusion/facilitated diffusion?
This large country is the world's leading producer of bananas.
What is India?
Includes all of the area in which life is found on Earth.
What is a biosphere?
Type of diagram that shows the relationship of organisms to their ancestors as well as common ancestry.
What is a phylogenetic tree?
Only this small part of the enzyme actually binds to the substrate.
What is an active site?
These macromolecules are embedded in the cell membrane and serve a number of functions. Some function as channels or membrane pores; others as carrier molecules. Some bind signal molecules while others play a role in cell recognition.
What are proteins?
The nickname for the bell of the clock at the Palace of Westminster in London.
What is Big Ben?
A relationship between two species in which one species benefits and the other is harmed.
What is a parasitism?
The process whereby organisms that have advantages survive and pass their genes onto their offspring.
What is Natural Selection?
Enzyme denatures in these conditions. Yet what happens once it denatures.
Below/Above pG & above temp. The enzyme can no longer bind to the substrate so a chemical reaction cannot occur.
The state in which the distribution of a substance is even across the cell membrane.
What is equilibrium?
College attended by Mr. Carroll.
What is Old Dominion?
