These particles orbit the nucleus of an atom in areas called shells
What is an electron 
200
A coiled structure found in the nucleus of Eukaryote cells that contains DNA.
What are chromosomes?

300

All living things have cells 

The cell is the smallest unit of life

All cells come from pre-existing cells

What is the principles of the cell theory 

300

A disease where the control mechanisms of cells becomes altered and cells do not stop dividing.

What is cancer?

300
DNA is converted into RNA and RNA is converted into a protein 

What is the central dogma of Biology 

300

These structures contain a protein coat that houses genetic material and do not have the ability to reproduce independently 

What is a virus 

300

This process allows food to move through the digestive system so that humans can eat in any direction. 

What is peristalsis 

400

Plant undergo a cellular process known as photosynthesis in order to obtain energy for life. Using the power of the sun, all plants can make their own food.

When a cell divides the cell will enter into G1, S, G2, mitosis, and cytokinesis 

What is the cell cycle 

400

This molecule is made of nucleotides that contain a phosphate, sugar, and a base arranged as a double helix structure.  

What is DNA

When muscle fiber shorten so that the humans can move 

What are muscle contractions 

500
In animal cells O2 is and glucose is consumed and CO2, water and ATP are produced 

What is cellular respiration

In order for an organism to reproduce, the chromosome number must decrease by half. 

What is haploid 

500

Glow in the dark pigs have been genetically engineered in a lab to contain the glow in the dark gene found naturally in jellyfish.

500

The acid in the stomach breaks down proteins 

What is chemical digestion
