Potpourri
100
This jelly-like liquid is found inside cells
What is cytoplasm?
100
This plant cell organelle is used to create energy from sunlight
What is a chloroplast?
100
This molecule is used to store all of your genetic information
What is DNA?
100
This organelle produces the energy a cell needs.
What is the mitochondrion
100
These are single-celled organisms that lack a nucleus.
What are prokaryotes?
200
This structure protects plant cells and is absent in animal cells.
What is the cell wall?
200
This fluid is found inside chloroplasts.
What is stroma?
200
This nucleotide pairs with thymine in DNA
What is adenine?
200
This molecule is used by cells to store energy
What is ATP
200
This is the process that allows cells to create copies of themselves.
What is mitosis?
300
This structure supports the cell and gives the cell its shape.
What is the cytoskeleton?
300
This cycle is a part of photosynthesis, and does not need light to occur.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
300
This process copies DNA to produce RNA.
What is transcription?
300
This process splits glucose into two three-carbon molecules and results in two molecules of ATP
What is glycolysis?
300
This processes releases substances out of a cell.
What is exocytosis?
400
These cylindrical organelles separate DNA during cell division.
What is a centriole?
400
This molecule absorbs sunlight and gives plants their green color.
What is chlorophyll?
400
These enzymes bond nucleotides to create DNA.
What are DNA polymerases?
400
This part of cellular respiration results in up to 34 ATP molecules.
What is the electron transport chain?
400
In this stage of mitosis, nuclear membranes start forming and spindle fibers fall apart.
What is telophase?
500
Your DNA is stored in these structures.
What are chromosomes?
500
These small compartments inside a chloroplast contain the light absorbing molecules necessary for photosynthesis.
What are thylakoids?
500
This type of RNA transports amino acids to ribosomes.
What is tRNA?
500
This process that occurs in cellular respiration breaks down citric acid.
What is the Krebs Cycle?
500
This survivorship curve is present in species with an equal chance of death regardless of age.
What is a type II survivorship curve?
