Chemistry of life
After water the this is the next most abundant material in cells
What are proteins
This has the instructions for making proteins, as well as the Heredity material for the organism
What is DNA
This provides everything we need such as food, water, air, sunlight, mates, and shelter
What is Space
These store energy and some form the cell membrane of cells
What are Lipids
These are the subunits of proteins
What are Amino Acids
When organsims react to stimulus
What is their Response to Stimuli
All chemical reactions take place in this, this makes up 70% of a cell, and Humans can only survive 3 days without this
What is water
These lipids form most of the cell membrane
What are phospholipids
These are the 6 most common elements in living things
What are Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Sulfur
The process of humans excreting carbon dioxide and urine, this is also toxic to the organism
What is Excreting Waste
This is a source of energy, this is also a source of raw materials which are used to to make or repair cells
What is food
This is what helps organisms maintain a stable internal balance
What is Homeostasis
This is a major fuel or energy organisms use for all cell activities
What is ATP
These are the two types of Reproduction
What are Asexual Reproduction, and Sexual Reproduction
This is Carbon Dioxide for plants, and Oxygen for animals
What is air
This is the process that uses food to produce energy or use energy to form a new product
What is metabolism
These are Carbohydrates made up of hundreds of sugar molecules linked together
What is a Complex Carbohydrate
Organisms need this to carry out all life activities, Organsims use this to build cells and break down food, Plants need this to make glucose (food), and Animals obtains this through consumption (eating)
What is Energy
This provides protections from the elements
What is shelter
These are organisms made of many cells
What are Multicellular Cells
