Comparision
Water is this type of molecule, which shares electrons unequally between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms
Polar
Eukaryotic cells contain this organelle:
Nucleus
This plant structure is where photosynthesis takes place
Chloroplasts
Living things change over time or...

The factor being tested or added by the experimenter is the...
Independent Variable
Water is attracted to other molecules like glass, this property is
Adhesion
This type of cell is more rounded and does not have a cell wall...
Animal Cell
This gas is a reactant of photosynthesis
Carbon Dioxide
Reproduction/Reproducing

Dependent Variable
For molecules to be organic they must contain this element:
Carbon
This is the cell's control center:
Nucleus
These organisms go through cellular respiration

If, then, because
Lactase helps break down the dairy sugar lactose, lactase and lactose are these molecules...
Lactase: enzyme
Lactose: carbohydrate/sugar
This organelle produces energy:
Mitochondria
This molecule is produced during cellular respiration and provides energy for cells to carry out their life processes
ATP
Eating, breathing, getting rid of waste and photosynthesizing are part of a process known as...
Metabolism
A well written research question will contain these 2 things:
The independent variable and the dependent variable
Fibrogen is necessary for sealing cuts and stopping blood loss. It is made of amino acids. Fibrogen is this type of molecule:
Protein
This organelle is responsible for making proteins:
Ribosomes
Describe the relationship between the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration...
The reactants of photosynthesis are the products of cellular respiration and the reactants of cellular respiration are the products of photosynthesis
