This is the monomer for proteins
What are amino acids

This type of active transport uses energy to move large molecules into the cell by engulfing them into vesicles made with cell membrane.
What is Endocytosis

Touch, gravity, and light are three stimuli that trigger what in plants?
Tropisms
200
Stomata are to a plant as __________ are to a human.

Chickens can have different types of feathers. Frizzled feathers curl toward a chicken’s head. Assume that a single gene determines feather type and that the allele for frizzled feathers is dominant over the allele for straight feathers.
In a cross between two chickens with straight feathers, what percentage of the offspring can be expected to have frizzled feathers?
0%

In humans, blood type is determined by the A, B, and O alleles. The A and B alleles are codominant to each other and dominant over the O allele.
An individual with the AO genotype and an individual with the BO genotype can produce offspring with which of the following phenotypes?
A, B, AB, and O

This acts as a catalyst to speed up reactions. It is specific to temperature and pH levels.
What are enzymes?
400
During this phase of meiosis—but not in mitosis—homologous chromosomes pair up and crossing over occurs.
