What is diffusion?
Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
100
In which organelle does photosynthesis occur in?
Chloroplast
100
Specialized cells are only found in what type of organisms?
Eukaryotes or many celled organisms
100
What is Mitosis?
Cell division or division of the nucleus
100
The stage of the cell cycle that follows mitosis.
cytokinesis
200
What is homeostasis?
Maintaining stable, internal conditions
200
In which organelle does cellular respiration occur?
mitochondria
200
What is the basic unit and structure of all living things?
Cells
200
What term describes the copying of the DNA?
Replication
200
What is the correct order of phases in mitosis?
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
300
What molecule is not absorbed by human cells?
carbon dioxide
300
What is the process by which cells use oxygen and get energy from food?
Cellular respiration
300
What is the function of the cell membrane?
to regulate what enters and exits the cell
300
During which stage of the cell cycle does the DNA replicate?
Interphase: S
300
What two parts of the cell cycle are not part of mitosis
Interphase and Cytokinesis
400
What is diffusion?
movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration.
400
What is the process by which plants and other cells make their own food?
Photosynthesis
400
What cell organelle contains DNA?
Nucleus
400
The regular cycle of growth and division a cell goes through is called ____________.
Cell cycle
400
What term best describes the moment when 2 new daughter cells are created?
cytokinesis
500
What are the levels of organization in living things?
atoms, elements, compounds and molecules, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems
500
Why do heterotrophs use cellular respiration?
Heterotrophs much take in oxygen and food to get energy through cellular respiration since they do not have chloroplast to make their own food.
500
What are the 3 parts to the Cell Theory?
All living things are made of cells. Cells come from other living cells Cells are the basic unit of life.
500
What happens during cytokinesis in an animal cell compared to a plant cell?
Animal cells create a cleavage furrow (pinching in) of the cell and a plant forms a cell plate.
500
Why must cell replicate their DNA in interphase of the cell cycle?
In order to create two new daughter cells that are identical to the cell they started with and so the new cells have a full set of DNA.
