Small particles made of RNA (ribonucleic acid) and protein.
What is a Ribosome?
100
Plants use the energy of sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and high-energy carbohydrates.
What is Photosynthesis?
100
An "in-between" period of growth in a cell.
What is Interphase?
100
The three main types of RNA.
What is messenger RNA, transfer RNA, and Ribosomal RNA?
100
Nature provides variation among the different organisms, and humans selected those variations that they found useful.
What is artificial selection?
200
The Endoplasmic Reticulum
What do Eukaryotic cells contain that is an internal membrane system?
200
6CO2+6H2O Light → C6H12O6+6O2
What is Photosynthesis?
200
The division of the cell nucleus and cytokinesis.
What is mitosis?
200
Consists of three consecutive nucleotides that specify single amino acid that is to be added to the polypeptide.
What is a Codon?
200
Members of each species compete for food, space, and other necesities of life.
What is struggle for existence?
300
The part of the endoplasmic reticulum that is involved in the synthesis of proteins.
What is the Rough ER?
300
Light absorbing molecules in plants.
What is pigment?
300
The copying of the chromosome phase.
What is the S phase?
300
Has a specific base sequence that enzymes bind to.
What is Promoters?
300
The ability to survive and reproduce in an animals environment.
What is fitness?
400
Stacks of membranes that are proteins produced by the Rough ER.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
400
One of the principle chemical compounds that living things use to store energy.
What is Adenosine triphosphate?
400
Takes up to 50 to 60 percent of the total time required to complete mitosis.
What is Prophase?
400
RNA polymerase binds to DNA and seperates the DNA strands. RNA polymerase then uses one strand of DNA as a template from which nucleotides are assembled into a strand of RNA.
What is transcription?
400
According to this principle all species living and extinct are derived from a common ancestor.
What is common descent?
500
One function is to break down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins from food into particles that can be used by the rest of the cell.
What is a function of the Lysosomes?
500
Produce oxygen gas and convert ADP and NADP into the energy carriers ATP and NADPH.
What is Light Dependent Reactions?
500
Two tiny structures located in the cytoplasm near the nuclear envelope.
What is centrioles?
500
The cell uses information from messenger RNA to produce proteins.
