In a solution, what is the solute?

The thing that is dissolved

100

Movement down a concentration gradient is called

Passive transport

100

The process by which biological systems maintain a stable, relatively constant internal environment despite changing external conditions is called what?

Homeostasis

100

Where does a cell spend 90% of it's time

Interphase

100

What is uncontrolled growth called

Cancer

200

When a cell has a higher concentration of solute than the surrounding solution, the solution is called what?

Hypotonic

200

What is the name for the movement of water?

Osmosis
200

Is this an example of positive or negative feedback:

 A baby suckling at the breast stimulates sensory receptors, which cause the release of oxytocin, causing further milk ejection and signaling continued milk production.

Positive

200

What happens in S phase?

The DNA replicates

200

What does the checkpoint at the end of G1 check for?

Proper cell growth

300

Is the solution hypotonic, isotonic, or hypertonic?

Hypertonic

300

Large or charged molecules are unable to cross directly through the cell membrane and instead use channel proteins. This type of cell transport is called what?

Facilitated diffusion

300

Is this a positive or negative feedback example: 

Negative

300

What is this phase called?

Metaphase

300

If cells are in bad condition, where will they enter to stop dividing?

G0

400

Describe what would happen to the cell in this scenario, only water can move.

Water will leave the cell and the cell will shrink

400

Active transport uses what molecule?

ATP

400

Describe gravitropism

Movement in response to gravity

400

What phase is this?

Anaphase

400

What is apoptosis?

Programmed cell death

500

How is the cell membrane arranged and why

Phospholipid bilayer with the hydrophilic heads facing out to interact with the water both inside of and outside of the cell

500

Utilizing a vesicle to move particles out of a cell is called

Exocytosis

500

What part of a plant displays negative gravitropism

The shoots

500

What is the difference between cytokinesis in plant cells and in animal cells?

Plant cells: cell plate forms

Animal cells: have a cleavage furrow where cells pinch in to split

500

What is checked in the M phase

That spindles are attached to the chromatids
