What type of gas do producers (plants) absorb during photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide
Which piece of evidence would suggest that a substance is entering the cell via active transport as opposed to passive transport?
ATP energy is required to enter the cell
What is the correct order for the phases of Mitosis?
PMAT (Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase)
What is the name of the vascular tissue in plants that transports glucose DOWN?

Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of an enzyme?
a. have a complementary shape to the substrate
b. change shape after the reaction is done
c. works at only specific temperatures
B. change shape after the reaction is done
What is the name of the process that converts chemical energy (glucose) into chemical energy (ATP)?
Cellular Respiration
Name two types of Passive Transport.
Simple Diffusion, Facilitated Diffusion, Osmosis (any 2)
What phase of Mitosis is represented by the chromosomes lining up across the equator (middle) of the cell?
Metaphase
What is the name of the enzyme that unzips the DNA strands by breaking the hydrogen bonds during the process of DNA replication?
Which biomolecule is made up of the monomers called "amino acids"?
Proteins
What are the two products of photosynthesis?
Glucose and Oxygen
Name two types of Active Transport.
Endocytosis, Exocytosis, Protein Pump (any 2)
What phase of the cell cycle is DNA replicated?

Creatine is a supplement that provides muscle building support and gives needed short term energy. Which 2 biomolecules does creatine contain?
Proteins and Carbohydrates
What is the relationship between the two processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
