What are two differences between mitosis and meiosis?
Mitosis = 1 division, occurs in body cells, creates 2 identical diploid cells Meiosis = 2 divisions, occurs in gametes, creates 4 genetically different haploid cells
300
What is endocytosis and exocytosis? Are they active or passive transport? (MUST GET BOTH QUESTIONS RIGHT TO GET POINTS)
Endocytosis = Substances enter the cell Exocytosis = Substances exit the cell (Active Transport)

300
What is an enzyme? What are the four factors that can affect an enzyme's reaction rate?
Enzyme = substances that speed up reactions (Enzyme Concentration, Substrate Concentration, Temperature, and pH)
