Atoms of the same element, # of neutrons are different.
What are isotopes?
Earth's early evolving atmosphere was composed of this.
What is water vapor, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen?
These make up an ATP molecule.
Adenine, Ribose, and a 3 Phosphate Group.
They do not absorb green on the light spectrum. Instead they reflect it. This takes place in chlorophyll.
What is why plants are green?
Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, and Electron Transport Chain.
What is the sequence of the three main events in cellular respiration?
Breaking down molecules.
What is how cellular respiration releases energy?
Carbon can bond with many elements plus other carbons to form millions of different large structures.
What is why carbon is so important to the chemistry of living things?
Plate techtonics.
What is the process that has caused the same type of fossils to be found on more than one continent?
Energy is released from sn ATP molecule.
What is when the Phosphate bond breaks?
Oxygen.
What is the gas given off by plants?
Reactants: Carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.
Products: Oxygen and Glucose (sugar).
What are the reactants and products of photosynthesis?
Reactants: Oxygen and Glucose.
Products: Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.
What are the reactants and products of cellular respiration?
Activation energy.
What is the energy needed to get a chemical reaction started?
All members of a species have died off.
What is extinction?
Autotrophs.
What are organisms that produce their own food, like plants?
Heterotrophs.
What are organisms that consume other organisms for food, like people?
The gas necessary for combustion (like burning a candle).
What is oxygen?
Oxygen.
What is why cellular respiration considered an Aerobic process?
Enzymes work best under these conditions.
What is when temperature, Ph, and regulatory molecules are under the best conditions?
Cold slows it down and heat speeds it up.
What is the effect that temperature has on enzyme activity?
The time is takes for radioactive atoms in a sample to decay.
What is a half-life?
Plants get the energy they need to start photosynthesis from this.
What is sunlight?
Removing carbon dioxide from a plant's environment would cause it to do this.
What is die?
The kinds of organisms in which cellular respiration occurs.
What is all Eukaryotic cells?
The basic unit if matter.
What is an atom?
