Characteristics of Life
This is how many characteristics of life that we learned about.
These are what all living things are made of.
What are cells?
These are the older, simpler cells that we have learned about.
This organelle helps to maintain homeostasis.
This involves the movement of molecules from HIGH to LOW concentration. (No energy)
What are cells?
This is where all cells come from.
This organelle is the creation center for proteins.
This feature of a Cell Membrane has a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail.
What is a phospholipid bilayer?
This involves the movement of water from high to low concentration.
What is osmosis?
These things are non-living, and have never been alive.
What are Abiotic Factors?
This gets passed on from one cell to another.
These organelles exist only in plant cells.
What are chloroplasts and cell walls?
This model of the Cell Membrane describes the movement and makeup of the membrane.
What is the Fluid Mosaic Model?
This type of transport uses no energy, but uses proteins to help with movement.
What is Facilitated Diffusion?
Metabolism is found in this characteristic of life.
What is Complex Chemistry?
These explain why something happened.
What are theories?
This important macromolecule is created by Mitochondria
What is ATP?
This part of a cell membrane helps larger materials pass through the membrane (facilitated diffusion)
What are Integral Proteins?
This type of Active transport means "Cell Drinking".
What is Pinocytosis?
The changing over time of Galapagos Finches is an example of this characteristic of life.
What is Adaptation through Evolution?
These are observations and descriptions of what is happening in the world.
What are Laws?
These two organelles assist cells in movement.
This part of the cell membrane assists the movement of the cell membrane by lubricating the phospholipids.
What is Cholesterol?
This type of transport moves materials from LOW concentration to HIGH concentration, requires energy.
