100

These are the building blocks of carbohydrates/starches:

Simple sugars!

200

What is the monomer of a carbohydrate?

What is MONOSACCHARIDE

300

 Rain is slightly acidic due to what molecule being present? 

What is carbon dioxide

400

This macromolecule is responsible for making up a large part of the cell membrane.

What are LIPIDS

500

This acts as a catalyst to speed up reactions. It is specific to temperature and pH levels.

What is an ENZYME

Cells

100

This type of cell contains only three organelles including the nucleus.

What is a Prokaryotic cell

200

This type of cell includes things like Chloroplast and cell walls.

What is plant cells

300

This type of organelle has two parts with one part contain another organelle inside of it to help with his function. 

What is Endoplasmic Reticulum/ Rough and Smooth ER?

400

This type of organelle is considered the storage unit of the cell. It can be very large inside

What is a Vacuole?

500

 Name of numerous short hair structures on the outside of some cells that help propel a cell? 

 What are cilia

Chemical Reactions

100

This is the process in which plants and other autotrophs use to create glucose

What is Photosynthesis?

200

This the process that is called the inverse of photosynthesis.

What is cellular respiration?

300

What is the energy currency of the cell? 

What is ATP 

400

This is the chemical equation for photosynthesis to cellular respiration.

What is C₆H₁₂0₆+6O₂?

500

 If oxygen is not available, cells will go to this method of creating ATP

What is fermentation

Take your chances

100

 True or false: Prokaryotes have membrane bound organelles 

false

200

 What is the main pigment found in plant cells that drive the chemical reactions during photosynthesis? 

 Chlorophyll

300

This process is called ________. Example: you burn your hand and pull your hand back quickly without thinking about it. 

What is a negative feedback loop

400

 If the cell membrane needs to bring large molecules into the cell it is called: 

 endocytosis

500

 List two parts to the cell theory: (2) 

 Basic unit of life is the cell
cells come from pre-existing cells

Biology Review 2

100

This process requires oxygen and creates ATP in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.

What is CELLULAR RESPIRATION

200

This converts solar energy to chemical energy in the form of ATP for the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis.

What is CHLOROPHYLL

300

This organelle is responsible for protein synthesis.

What is a ribosome?

400

This organelle is responsible for packaging and sending material across the cell. 

What is the Golgi apparatus/Golgi Complex?

500

These are the three organelles that are found ONLY in plant cells.

What is CHLOROPLAST, CELL WALL, LARGE CENTRAL VACUOLE
