Cellular Respiration
Oxygen and this are the reactants of cellular respiration
What is glucose
The cell division process that makes exact copies of itself
What is mitosis
These are different forms of the same gene
What are alleles?
These are the two factors that can affect enzyme functioning
What are temperature and pH
The hypothesis that claims the independent variable will have no affect on the dependent variable
What is the null hypothesis
This is the organelle where cellular respiration takes place
What is the mitochondria
This is the goal of mitosis
What is growth
Two alleles of a gene pair that are different (Aa)
What is heterozygous?
Enzymes speed up reactions by lowering this
What is activation energy
The variable manipulated by the scientist
What is the independent variable
This is the final electron acceptor in respiration
What is oxygen?
A cell becomes this after going through meiosis and halving it's chromosomes
What is haploid
The father of genetics who worked with pea plants to study inheritance
Who is Gregor Mendel
What is the proteolytic enzyme in fresh pineapple juice?
What is bromelian?
The variable that scientists measure
What is the dependent variable
Animals in which the body temperature depends mainly on the environmental temperature.
What are ectotherms
This is the number of divisions that take place in meiosis
Refers to the physical expression of the trait (what you might be able to see)
What is phenotype?
Enzymes are mainly this macromolecule
What is protein
This is what we compare our data to so we can analyze differences
What is the control
Animals that use physiological means to maintain a relatively constant body temperature.
What are endotherms
The phase in which crossing over occurs
What is prophase I
What phase were the clear cells (cells that you could NOT see chromosomes in) in for the mitosis lab?
What is interphase?
This is the part of the enzyme that substrates bind to
What is the active site
Based on our data, we do one of these two things to the null hypothesis
What is reject or fail to reject
