Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
This is the catabolic process where bonds in glucose are broken to produce Carbon Dioxide and Water
What is Cellular Respiration
In an ecosystem, the most likely reason for a decrease in the producer population if there is also a decrease in the carnivore population.
What is an increase in herbivores/primary consumers?
The phases of mitosis.
What is Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase and Cytokinesis?
This gas, produced by burning fossil fuels and respiration, is the most discussed greenhouse gas driving climate change.
What is carbon dioxide?
The variety of life in all its forms—genes, species, and ecosystems—is known by this term.
What is biodiversity?
This is the anabolic process where bonds are formed between the atoms in Carbon Dioxide and Water in order to form glucose, with Oxygen as a bi-product
What is photosynthesis?
The bottom-most level of a trophic system.
What are producers?
Where the DNA is stored in a cell.
What is a nucleus?
The process that removes Carbon from the atmosphere and stores it in the biosphere (Living things).
What is Photosynthesis?
What is a keystone species?
Cellular Respiration is split into two processes, Glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle. The Krebs cycle happens in what organelle, which is also sometimes referred to as "The powerhouse of the cell?"
What is the Mitochondria?
The source of all energy in a ecosytem.
What is the sun?
The stage of the cell cycle where chromosomes line up in the center of the cell for division.
What is Metaphase?
The historical event in the 1880s that coincides with an increase in the human burning of fossil fuels.
What is the industrial revolution?
Three ways that human activity can affect ecosystems.
What are tourism, Poaching, Housing Development, Deforestation, Agricultural Development, etc.
The number of individuals in a population that an ecosystem can support.
What is carrying capacity?
The cellular defect that causes cancer.
What are mistakes in regulatory checkpoints of the cell cycle leading to uncontrollable growth?
The Greenhouse Gas Effect.
What is CO2, Methane, and other gases leading to increased global temperature.
The effect of an island ecosystem loses a key predator, causing the prey population to explode.
A decline in producers/plants
Of the two processes involved in Cellular Respiration, Glycolysis produces less ATP than the Krebs Cycle. This is because Glycolysis is an example of THIS type of respiration, which does not require oxygen.
What is Anaerobic Respiration
The amount of biomass at the secondary consumer level of a trophic system, if the producer level has 10,000kg.
What is 100 kg?
How cells differentiate.
Why Greenhouses gases lead to an increase in global temperature.
What is the gas molecules insulate the atmosphere and trap heat from the sun.
A plant species that was brought in for garden decoration begins spreading rapidly, crowding out native plants along a riverbank.
What is an invasive species?
