Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is the process of converting ___________ energy into ___________ energy.
Light energy into chemical energy
Cellular Respiration is the process of converting __________ into _____________
Glucose into ATP
The function of DNA
Stores genetic material
The purpose of the cell cycle
To replicate cells
The ultimate reason for cell division
To repair damaged cells, for growth and development
Photosynthesis takes place in this organelle
Chloroplast
The two types of respiration
Aerobic and Anaerobic
Karyotypes are defined as
Photograph of one’s chromosomes, grouped in pairs of homologous chromosomes by size
The two parts of the cell cycle
Interphase and Mitotic (M) Phase
The 4 phases of mitosis
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase
The Calvin Cycle uses these high energy electrons to produce glucose
ATP and NADPH
Cellular respiration in humans begins in this cell organelle ______ and ends in this cell organelle __________?
The cytoplasm and mitochondria
The monomer of DNA
Nucleotide
The three parts of interphase
G1, S and G2
What is the final result of mitosis? Final result of cytokinesis?
Mitosis: A split of the nucleus
Cytokinesis: Two daughter cells
The purpose of the light reaction
Use energy from sunlight to split water into Oxygen, Hydrogen to produce ATP and NADPH to power the Calvin cycle
The two types of anaerobic respiration
Lactic acid and alcoholic Fermentation
The three parts of a nucleotide
Sugar, Phosphate and a Nitrogen Base
Cancer is defined as
Uncontrollable cell growth
This checkpoint is responsible for making sure that the sister chromatids are connected to the spindle fibers, lined up at the equator of the cell ready to be pulled apart during the metaphase
The mitotic spindle checkpoint - checkpoint 3
Light reactions take place in the ____________.
Light-independent reactions take place in the _______.
Thylakoid and stroma
If oxygen is present after glycolysis, the next pathways are __________ and ________.
Krebs Cycle and the electron transport chain
The complimentary pairs of nitrogen bases
Adenine pairs with Thymine
Guanine pairs with Cytosine
What happens during the three phases of interphase
G1: Cell Grows and Carrys out normal functions
S: Replicates DNA
G2: Cell Grows, Carrys out normal functions and prepares to divide
The difference between plant and animal cells during cytokinesis
Animal cells will pinch the cytoplasm and the plant cells will make a cell plate that will harden into a cell wall
