Photosynthesis
What is the sun?
These are the three basic subatomic particles
What are the proton, the neutron and the electron?
These are the two basic parts of a solution
What is the solute and the solvent?
Sucrose (table sugar) is made of these two monosaccharides
What are glucose and fructose?
These are the building blocks of proteins
What are amino acids?
Photosynthesis begins with these 2 reactants
What are carbon dioxide and water?
These are the two basic changes that occur in matter
What are chemical and physical changes?
This is the term for the measurement of the amount of solute in a solution
What is "concentration?"
A disaccharide is broken down into its two monosaccharides during this kind of reaction
What is hydrolysis?
These form the backbone of the DNA molecule
What are chains that alternate a phosphate group with a sugar (deoxyribose)?
This catalyzes the photosynthesis reaction
What is chlorophyll?
This is what a chemical formula tells you about a molecule
This type of movement requires a membrane
What is osmosis (which must have a semi-permeable membrane)?
Organic acids have this characteristic pattern of atoms
What is the H-C=O group?
Amino acids are held together by these kinds of bonds
What are peptide bonds?
These 2 products are produced during photosynthesis
What are oxygen and a simple sugar?
This is the current model of the atom
What is the quantum mechanical model?
This theory of matter governs diffusion
What is the kinetic theory of matter?
Saturated fats have none of these
What are C=C (double bonds between their carbon atoms)?
The bases in DNA are held together by these kinds of bonds
What are hydrogen bonds?
These organisms do 75% of the photosynthesis on the earth
What are algae?
This is why the definition of matter includes the phrase "takes up space"
What is because atoms are mostly empty space, but they take up space?
If diffusion has a membrane, it must be this kind
What is fully permeable?
Lipids have a backbone of glycerol connected to this many fatty acid molecules
What is 3?
Cytosine always bonds with this nucleotide base
What is guanine (car in the garage)?
