Digestion
The major nutrient used to build and repair the body
What are Proteins?
The brain/control center of the cell. Where all of the DNA is held.
What is the Nucleus?
Organisms increasing in size or organisms repairing or the building new body parts is called this.
What is Growth
What is Glucose?
This type of digestion involves the physical action of breaking food into smaller pieces, like ripping up bread
What is Mechanical Digestion?
The building blocks of proteins
What are amino acids?
The roads of the cell used to transport materials. May be rough or smooth.
What is Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)?
A group of tissues working together.
What is an organ?
An energy rich molecule our bodies use to complete life functions.
What is ATP/ Adenosine triphosphate?
Carbohydrates break down into these building blocks.
What are simple sugars/glucose?
Two organelles that are only found in plant cells.
What are the cell wall and chloroplasts?

What is a tissue?
The powerhouse of the cell. Where cellular respiration takes place.
What is the Mitochondria?
Water is an essential nutrient because it allows for this to take place in the body.
What are chemical reactions?
What semi-permeable means.
What is somethings can go through while others can't, like a window screen?
The two types of movement living things may use.
What are locomotion and transport?
The process that creates 2 ATP and does not use oxygen?
What is Fermentation/Anaerobic Respiration?
Glycerol is one of the two building blocks of this biomolecule.
What are fats/lipids?
The type of cell transport that requires energy and allows large molecules through the membrane.
What is Active Transport?
All changes in an organism that use or release energy.
What is Metabolism?
The reactants (inputs) and products (outputs) of cellular respiration.
Glucose + Oxygen --> CO2 + Water + 36 ATP
