Characteristics of Living things
Basic unit of all forms of life.
cells
Fats, oils, and waxes are all examples of this biomolecule.
lipids
Molecules moving across a membrane from a lower concentration to a higher concentration and energy is required for movement to happen
active transport
This part of the cell allows certain materials to enter and exit the cell.
Cell membrane
This stage of cellular respiration makes the most ATP
Electron transport chain
All the chemical reactions that take place in an organism
metabolism
Amino acids are the building blocks for this biomolecule?
Proteins
This is the name of the process by which water moves into and out of a cell.
This organelle is responsible for making proteins.
ribosomes
This is the overall process that results in the production of ATP.
Cellular Respiration
Process by which organisms keep their internal conditions fairly constant
homeostasis
Amino acids are the building blocks for this biomolecule?
proteins
The passive movement of molecules from higher concentration to regions of lower concentration
diffusion
This structure is found in plant cells and it gives cells their rigid structure.
cell wall
The following reaction takes place in this organelle. 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
chloroplast
the combining of simple substances to create more complex substances
synthesis
This type of molecules has a ration of 1:2:1 of Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen
carbohydrates
The sodium-potassium pump uses this type of transport
active transport
This part of the cell is only found in eukaryotes and it contains the DNA.
nucleus
The ________ of photosynthesis are the _________ of cellular respiration
The products of photosynthesis are the reactants (starting materials) of cellular respiration.
An idea that life can arise from nonliving matter.
spontaneous generation
The subunits of lipids.
fatty acids and glycerol
This state is reached when, through diffusion, concentration of solutes become the same on both sides of a membrane.
equilibrium
This organelle is found in both plant and animal cells, and it is the site of cellular respiration.
mitochondria
In which cellular organelle does the following reaction take place? 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
chloroplast
