Botany
This green pigment is essential for photosynthesis.
What is chlorophyll?
In diabetes, this hormone is either not produced or not used properly by the body.
What is insulin?
The gas plants take in during photosynthesis.
What is carbon dioxide?
These structures carry genetic information.
What are chromosomes?
This gas is the main contributor to global warming.
What is carbon dioxide?
This part of the plant is responsible for making food using sunlight.
What is the leaf?
People with this disorder cannot eat gluten, a protein found in wheat.
What is Celiacs disease?
The sugar produced during photosynthesis.
What is glucose?
A segment of DNA that codes for a trait.
What is a gene?
The effect where gases trap heat in Earth’s atmosphere.
What is the greenhouse effect?
The tiny pores on the underside of leaves that allow gas exchange.
What are stomata?
This molecule stores and transfers energy in cells.
What is ATP?
Daily Double!!!!
What does ATP stand for?
The cell organelle where photosynthesis takes place.
What is the cholroplast?
The father of genetics.
Who is Gregor Mendel?
Scientists study this type of long-term information, like temperature records and ice core samples.
What is climate data or historical climate data?
These vessels transport water and minerals from roots to leaves.
What are the xylem?
The three main types of molecules are broken down by the body during metabolism to release energy and build tissues.
What are carbohydrates, proteins, and fats?
Explain how photosynthesis and cellular respiration depend on each other.
Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen, which are used in cellular respiration. Cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide and water, which are used in photosynthesis.
A dominant gene will always do this.
What is express itself over a recessive gene?
This type of energy is trapped by greenhouse gases in Earth’s atmosphere, causing the planet to warm.
What is infrared radiation (infrared energy)?
Name the reproductive part of a flower that produces pollen.
What is the stamen?
Enzymes speed up metabolic reactions and belong to this class of biomolecules.
What are proteins?
Write the chemical equation for photosynthesis.
What is 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂?
This is the process named by the Molecular Biology Central Dogma.
→ What is DNA → RNA → Protein
Daily Double!!
What does DNA and RNA stand for?
The burning of these fuels, along with what are the main human causes of climate change.
What are fossil fuels and deforestation?
