Characteristics of Life
All living things are made of these.
What are cells?
The basic unit of life.
What is the cell?
Movement of moleculs from high to low concentration.
What is diffusion?
DNA is copied during this phase of interphase.
What is S phase?
Different versions of a gene are called these.
What are alleles?
The process of keeping internal conditions stable.
What is homeostasis.
What is the mitochondria?
The movement of water across a membrane.
What is osmosis?
Chromosomes line up in th emiddle of the cell during this phase.
What is metaphase?
An organism's genetic makeup.
What is a genotype?
Living things must be able to respond and do this as well.
What is reproduce?
Cells that do NOT have a nucleus.
What are prokaryotic cells?
Transport that does NOT require energy.
What is passive transport?
Sister chromatids seperate during this phase.
What is anaphase?
What is a phenotype?
Living things obtain and use this to survive.
What is energy?
What is the Golgi apparatus?
Transport that requires ATP.
What is active transport?
Two nuclei form during this phase.
What is telophase?
When neither allele is dominant and the phenotype is blended.
What is incomplete dominance?
Over many generations, living things can do this.
What is evolve (change over time)?
This structure is found only in plant cells and allows photosynthesis.
What is the chloroplast?
The cell membrane is described as this structure.
What is a fluid mosaic phospholipid bilayer?
The division of the cytoplasm is called this.
What is cytokinesis?
During meiosis, chromosomes swap pieces in this process.
What is crossing-over?
