Science of Life
In a clinical trial, the group that receives the placebo, or pill, with no active ingredients.
Control group
Main function is to provide energy
Carbohydrates
Consists of a phospholipid bilayer that is selectively permeable
Cell membrane
Energy-storing molecule that contains 3 phosphates, adenosine, and ribose
ATP
Where in the cell does glycolysis occur?
Cytoplasm
The study of organisms that cause illness and their effects on public health
Infectious disease
The monomer is an amino acid
Protein
What would happen to a cell placed in a hypertonic solution? Think about pouring salt on a slug.
It would shrivel
Primary function of photosynthesis
To convert sunlight into chemical energy
How many ATP molecules can be produced from one molecule of glucose during cellular respiration?
38
A field of biology based on the ability to edit and rewrite the genetic code
Bioinformatics
Which of the following is NOT a function of proteins?
a. Build cells and tissues
b. Provide energy
c. Serve as enzymes
d. Assist in immune function
Provide energy
Movement against a concentration gradient that requires ATP energy.
active transport
What type of organisms perform photosynthesis?
Autotrophs
What happens after glycolysis if no oxygen is available?
Fermentation or anaerobic respiration
The effects of a new pesticide applied to test plants (not the pesticide- the effects)
dependent variable
Its monomer consists of a sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogen base
Nucleic acid
All of the following substances move via what type of cellular transport?
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, lipid molecules
Diffusion
Reactants in photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide and water
What is a waste (by)product of photosynthesis that is used in cellular respiration?
Oxygen
Type of data that includes the following:
37 degrees Celsius
72 BPM
120/70 mmHG blood pressure
quantitative data
Liquid at room temperature and has at least one double bond in its structure (ex: olive oil)
Unsaturated fatty acid
Requires the assistance of a protein carrier for transport but does not need energy.
Facilitated diffusion
Products of photosynthesis
Glucose and oxygen
What is the relationship between cellular respiration and photosynthesis?
They are opposites.
