Body Systems
The body system that is responsible for making sure we take in enough oxygen.
What is the respiratory system?
In a saltwater solution, this is the solute.
What is salt?
The monomer of proteins.
What are amino acids?
This organelle stores DNA.
What is the nucleus/nucleolus?
The 3 elements found in carbohydrates.
What are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen?
This body system makes sure that oxygen-rich blood travels to all of our muscles so that they may make ATP.
What is the circulatory system?
An environment with more solutes than the neighboring environment.
What is hypertonic?
What is Uracil?
This organelle is where cellular respiration occurs to make ATP.
What is a mitochondrion?
Proteins that speed up chemical reactions, such as digestion.
What are enzymes?
This body system reacts to stimuli from our environment and sends signals through our body to maintain homeostasis.
What is the nervous system?
The direction of moving from high to low concentration.
What is along the concentration gradient?
The three parts of a nucleotide.
What are a ribose sugar, a phosphate, and a N base?
The jelly-like fluid that fills up the inside of the cell.
What is cytoplasm?
The type of chemical bond formed when two atoms share electrons.
What is a covalent bond?
This body system contains the bean-shaped organs that filter water waste.
What is the excretory system?
Because salt cannot pass through the cell membrane, water will move for it due to this phenomenon.
What is osmosis?
These organelles read RNA and use it as instructions to assemble proteins.
What are ribosomes?
What is the vacuole?
The type of bond formed between water molecules, or between two strands of DNA, where one positive part of a molecule is attracted to a negative part of a molecule, or vice versa.
What are hydrogen bonds?
These molecules, such as serotonin, testosterone, estrogen, dopamine, and oxytocin travel through our bloodstream to send messages across our bodies.
What are hormones?
Molecules with these two properties can typically pass through the cell membrane on their own.
What are small and hydrophobic?
The number of different amino acids found in the human body. (For double points, how many are hydrophobic/hydrophilic?)
What is 20? (10/10)
What is the smooth ER?
The three parts of an atom, with their charges.
What are protons (+), neutrons (o), and electrons (-)?
