Macromolecule
This is the function of carbohydrates; specifically, monosaccharides
What is energy? (short-term)
What is response to the environment?
What is a protein?
True/False: Prokaryotic organisms can arrange themselves to become multicellular
False
True/False: All cells have a cell membrane
True
This is the monomer for nucleic acids
What is a nucleotide?
Organisms get hungry and feed on other things to obtain nutrients and energy
Metabolism; the need for nutrients, energy, materials
Enzymes are a type of this... the name for a molecule that speeds up chemical reactions
What is a catalyst?
This organelle, found primarily in plant cells, takes in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, combines it with water and sunlight, and makes usable sugar through photosynthesis
Chloroplasts
True/False: Prokaryotic cells have ribosomes
True
These are the building blocks of proteins
What are amino acids?
Gametes from a mother and a father (egg and sperm) fuse to create a new life
What is reproduction?
This is the area of an enzyme that allows the substrate to bind to the enzyme
What is the active site?
Where can DNA be found in prokaryotic cells?
The cytoplasm
This terms means that internal balance is being maintained through inherited processes
What is homeostasis?
This is the type of reaction that is anabolic (building larger, more complex molecules from basic building blocks)
What is dehydration synthesis?
Arrange the following from least complex to most complex: Organ system, organism, cell, tissue, organ
What is cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism?
Name the two factors that could denature an enzyme AND explain what denaturation does to an enzyme.
What are temperature and pH, and denaturation changes the shape of an enzyme causing it to not function properly
This organelle modifies proteins and packages them to moved after the ribosome has synthesized them
What is a ribosome?
This type of reproduction creates offspring that are exact genetic copies of the parent
What is asexual reproduction?
Name the monomer AND function of all macromolecules of life.
carbs-monosaccharides-energy/structure
lipids-glycerol/fatty acids-water barrier, long-term energy
proteins-amino acids-catalysts, structure, messengers, etc.
nucleic acids-nucleotides-store and transmit genetic information
Eukaryotic organisms are made of smaller building blocks of life
Enzymes lower the amount of this type of energy that is needed to start a chemical reaction
What is activation energy?
Identify three organelles that are present in plant cells but NOT in animal cells (one of the organelles is the same, just a different variation of it)
What is a cell wall, chloroplast, and central vacuole?
This is the type of enzyme that can be found in lysosomes that aids in breaking down/digesting molecules
What are hydrolytic enzymes?
