Biochemistry
This molecule is the primary energy currency of the cell.
What is ATP?
This type of bond involves the sharing of electrons between atoms.
What is a covalent bond?
This structure connects the two sister chromatids.
What is the centromere?
This law states that force equals mass times acceleration.
What is Newton’s Second Law?
This part of the brain controls basic functions like breathing and heart rate.
What is the brainstem?
This metabolic pathway breaks glucose into pyruvate in the cytoplasm.
What is glycolysis?
This law states that pressure and volume are inversely related at constant temperature.
What is Boyle’s Law?
This phase of mitosis involves the separation of sister chromatids.
What is anaphase?
This quantity is defined as work done per unit time.
What is power?
This type of conditioning involves learning through rewards and punishments.
What is operant conditioning?
This coenzyme carries electrons to the electron transport chain in cellular respiration.
What is NADH?
This quantity measures the disorder or randomness of a system.
What is entropy?
This organelle modifies and packages proteins for secretion.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
This equation relates voltage, current, and resistance in an electrical circuit.
What is Ohm’s Law?
This neurotransmitter is primarily associated with reward, motivation, and addiction.
What is dopamine?
This cycle generates NADH and FADH₂ by oxidizing acetyl-CoA in the mitochondrial matrix.
What is the citric acid cycle?
This type of reaction involves the transfer of electrons between species.
What is a redox (oxidation-reduction) reaction?
This process moves substances across membranes against their concentration gradient using energy.
What is active transport?
This phenomenon describes the bending of light as it passes between different media.
What is refraction?
This concept refers to the tendency to overestimate how much others notice your behavior or appearance.
What is the spotlight effect?
This enzyme catalyzes the rate-limiting step of glycolysis.
What is phosphofructokinase?
This principle states that when a system at equilibrium is disturbed, it shifts to counteract the change.
What is Le Chatelier’s Principle?
This type of cell signaling involves hormones traveling through the bloodstream.
What is endocrine signaling?
This equation relates energy of a photon to its frequency.
What is E=hf?
This psychologist developed the hierarchy of needs.
Who is Abraham Maslow?
