Photosynthesis
Organelle that functions in photosynthesis.
Chloroplast
Organelle that functions in cellular respiration.
Mitochondrion.
Stage of cell cycle that includes Gap 1, Synthesis, and Gap 2 phases.
What is interphase?
Disease that occurs when an individual can no longer regulate blood glucose levels.
Diabetes
Union of sperm and egg
What is fertilization?
The primary purpose of photosynthesis is to make this molecule.
Glucose
The primary function of cellular respiration is to produce this molecule.
ATP (Adenosine triphosphate)
True or False?
A cell genome replicates before mitosis but NOT before meiosis.
What is FALSE?
This hormone is produced by the pancreas and functions in removing glucose from the blood.
Insulin
A cell that has one copy of every chromosomes is considered to have this karyotype; karyotype of gametes
What is haploid?
This molecule absorbs photons and is located within the chloroplast.
Chlorophyll
During cellular respiration this molecule is completely broken down and energy extracted to produce ATP.
Glucose
True or False?
The produce of mitosis is two genetically identical diploid cells.
What is TRUE?
Term used to describe when blood glucose levels are above normal levels.
What is hyperglycemia?
Sequence of nucleotides at a specific site on a chromosome that codes for a protein/character/trait
What is a gene?
Which reactant/input of photosynthesis supplies the carbon to produce glucose?
Carbon dioxide
Which elemental gas is required in order for cellular respiration to occur?
Oxygen
Females only get one egg per meiotic cycle/germ cell. What is divided UNEQUALLY between daughter cells to cause this to happen?
What is cytoplasm?
This organ is part of both the digestive and endocrine system and functions in regulation of blood glucose levels.
What is the pancreas?
erm used to describe chromosomes that code for the same characters; one comes from mother and other comes from father.
What are homologous chromosomes?
True or False?
Carbon dioxide enters and oxygen exits through the roots of the plant.
What is FALSE?
True or False? Only animals perform cellular respiration.
FALSE!
Mutation that occurs due to errors in meiosis; homologous pairs do not separate producing gametes with abnormal number of chromosomes
What is nondisjunction?
The hormone glucagon assists with increasing blood glucose levels by breaking down this polysaccharide.
What is glycogen?
Organisms in this Domain are capable of meiosis
What is Eukarya?
