list the level of organization in the human body.   Cell, tissue, organ, organ system.  
🗑
what are the stages of cellular respiration?   Glycolysis, krebs cycle, electron transport.  
🗑
why are nitrogen and phosphorus important to living things?   nitrogen make proteins and phosphorus makes DNA and RNA.  
🗑
absorbs sunlight for photosynthesis.   chlorophyll  
🗑
releases and stores energy.   ATP  
🗑
process by which molecules tend to move from one are where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated.   diffusion  
🗑
network of protein filaments within some cells that helps the cell maintain its shape and its involved many forms of cell movement   cytoskeleton  
🗑
small dense region within most nuclei in which the assembly of proteins begins.   nucleolus  
🗑
area where the chromatids of a chromosome are attached.   centromere  
🗑
Permeate   to pass through  
🗑
Impermeable   unable for anything to pass through  
🗑
Semipermeable   Allowing passage of certain, especially small, molecules or ions but acting as a barrier to others  
🗑
selectively permeable   Allowing passage of certain, especially small, molecules or ions but acting as a barrier to others  
🗑
solution   A homogeneous mixture of two or more substances, which may be solids, liquids, gases, or a combination of these.  
🗑
Solvent   A substance in which another substance is dissolved, forming a solution.  
🗑
Solute   substance dissolved in another substance, usually the component of a solution present in the lesser amount.  
🗑
Diffusion   Process by which there is a net flow of matter from a region of high concentration to one of low concentration  
🗑
Osmosis   diffusion of water or other solvent through a semipermeable membrane.  
🗑
Facilitated diffusion   type of passive transport that allows substances to cross membranes with the assistance of special transport proteins (glucose, sodium ions and chloride ions)  
🗑
Active transport   The movement of ions or other substances across a membrane in the direction of increasing concentration (and thus requires an expenditure of energy ).  
🗑
Isotonic solution   A solution that has no effect on the volume of tissues and cells. Thus, a cell, when placed in an isotonic solution tends neither to gain or lose water  
🗑
Hypotonic solution   A mixture containing a concentration of solute that is lower than the concentration of the same solute in another mixture to which it is compared. When two such solutions are separated by a permeable membrane  
🗑
Hypertonic solution   mixture containing a concentration of solute in excess of the concentration of the same solute in another mixture to which it is compared  
🗑
Endocytosis   A process of cellular ingestion by which the plasma membrane folds inward to bring substances into the cell  
🗑
Exocytosis   A process of cellular secretion or excretion in which substances contained in vesicles are discharged from the cell by fusion of the vesicular membrane with the outer cell membrane.  
🗑
Plasmolysis   Shrinkage or contraction of the protoplasm away from the wall of a living plant or bacterial cell, caused by loss of water through osmosis.  
🗑
Turgor pressure   the pressure exerted by water inside the cell against the cell wall. (if too great causes the cell to burst)  
🗑
Components of cell theory   all living things are made up of one or more cells. Cells are the basic living units within organisms. The chemical reactions of life takes place within the cells. All cells arise from pre-existing cells through the process of cell division.  
🗑
Surface area to volume ratio   An increased surface area to volume ratio also means increased exposure to the environment. Greater surface area allows more of the surrounding water to be sifted for nutrients.  
🗑
Difference b/t plant and animal cells   plant cells go through both photosynthesis and cellular respiration, while animal cells only go through cellular respiration  
🗑
Difference b/t plant and animal cells outsides   1. plant cells have rigid walls of cellulose, animal cells have cell membranes whose shape is more dynamic  
🗑
Eyepiece   The lens the viewer looks through to see the specimen. The eyepiece usually contains a 10X or 15X power lens.  
🗑
Diopter Adjustment   Useful as a means to change focus on one eyepiece so as to correct for any difference in vision between your two eyes  
🗑
Body tube (Head)   connects the eyepiece to the objective lenses.  
🗑
Arm   connects the body tube to the base of the microscope  
🗑
Coarse adjustment   Brings the specimen into general focus

🗑
Nosepiece   A rotating turret that houses the objective lenses. The viewer spins the nosepiece to select different objective lense  
🗑
Objective lenses   One of the most important parts of a compound microscope, as they are the lenses closest to the specimen

Stage clips   Metal clips that hold the slide in place  
🗑
Stage height adjustment (Stage Control)   These knobs move the stage left and right or up and down.  
🗑
Aperture   The hole in the middle of the stage that allows light from the illuminator to reach the specimen  
🗑
Illumination:   The light source for a microscope. Older microscopes used mirrors to reflect light from an external source up through the bottom of the stage; however, most microscopes now use a low-voltage bulb.  
🗑
Iris diaphragm   Adjusts the amount of light that reaches the specimen  
🗑
Condenser   Gathers and focuses light from the illuminator onto the specimen being viewed.  
🗑
Base   The base supports the microscope and it’s where illuminator is located.  
🗑
respiration equation   C6H12O6 + O2 → CO2 + H2O + Energy

🗑
Cellular Respiration: Glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle   Energy is created in cellular respiration through the oxidization of glucose and its derivatives. This occurs during two chemical processes known as glycolysis and the Krebs cycle. Glycolysis breaks glucose into two molecules of pyruvate  
🗑
Photosynthesis: Light reactions and the Calvin Cycle   Photosynthesis converts solar energy into chemical energy in light reactions. Chlorophyll absorbs energy and transfers electrons and hydrogen from water. This releases oxygen from the water molecule. The electrons and hydrogen reduced NADP+ to NADPH.
