what is glucose?
An acid that is built-up in muscles during exercise.
What is lactic acid?
The site of cellular respiration/ ATP production
What is the mitochondria?
A relationship where both organisms benefit.
What is mutualism?
The process where DNA is used to synthesize RNA.
What is transcription?
The energy currency of the cell
What is ATP?
Doesn't requires oxygen
What is anaerobic?
The body system responsible for getting oxygen through the body.
What is the circulatory system?
An organelle where photosynthesis takes place.
What is a chloroplast
The process is which RNA is used to synthesize a protein.
What is translation?
The macromolecule that is comprised of a phosphate group, sugar, and a base that is either A, T, C, G, or U.
What is nucleic acid?
A process that requires carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose in the presence of sunlight.
What is photosynthesis?
Microscopic non-living agent composed of proteins enveloping strands of DNA or RNA.
What is a virus?
The secondary consumer has 27 calories of energy, so the tertiary consumer can obtain this much energy, according to the 10% rule.
What is 2.7 calories?
Gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) are exchanged by diffusion between sacs called alveoli in the lungs with small blood vessels called capillaries in the blood in this body system.
What is the respiratory system?
This macromolecule is described as greasy and provides long term energy storage and waterproofing.
What is lipid?
A process that requires oxygen and glucose to release energy.
What is cellular respiration?
A type of protein that has a particular shape the speeds up a reaction.
What is an enzyme?
A term coined by Charles Darwin that describes how an organism that is better adapted to its environment is more likely to survive and reproduce.
What is natural selection?
Draw this to figure out the probability of which genotypes and phenotypes could be passed onto the offspring.
What is a Punnett square?
A protein is made up of these monomers.
What are amino acids?
This process divides homologous chromosomes into two cells, and it is how organisms grow or repair wounds.
What is mitosis?
This process is responsible for making gametes that are haploid cells.
What is meiosis?
The part of the cell cycle when the cell grows, replicates its DNA, and prepares to divide.
What is interphase?
This evidence is the best way to determine if organisms are more closely related.
What is molecular (DNA) evidence?
