Term
Definition
Protein   A macromolecule in living things that is made of chains of amino acids subnuits.  
🗑
Carbohydrate   A type of carbon-based molecule in living things.  
🗑
Nucleic Acid   One of several carbon-based molecules that carry an organism's genetic code.  
🗑
Protein   Control the chemical activity of a cell and support growth and repair.  
🗑
Carbohydrates   Include sugars and starches used for energy or as structural materials.  
🗑
Composed   made up of, put together in form, ex: all living things are ______ of cells.  
🗑
Carbohydrate   molecules contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen  
🗑
Energy   can come by means of food-sun, glucose (sugar), carbohydrates. Helps us to do things.  
🗑
Cellular Respiration   A process in which cells use oxygen to release energy stored in sugars.  
🗑
Fermentation   A chemical process by which cells release energy from sugar when no oxygen is present.  
🗑
Herbicide   Effects, Kills, Damages: like vinegar on plants  
🗑
Glucose   A sugar molecule that is a major energy source for most cells, produced by the process of photosynthesis.  
🗑
Solvent   The part that dissolves something.  
🗑
Solute   The material that is getting dissolved.  
🗑
Solution   the outcome of two different items put together  
🗑
Sustain   to keep in existence; maintain or prolong, to meet the current needs without compromising the future needs of something.  
🗑
Repel   to keep away, stay away. Like lipid tails stay away from water.  
🗑
Animal Cells   has mitosis phase and centrioles  
🗑
Plant Cells   has mitosis phase but no centriole  
🗑
46; 23   Every human has ___________chromosomes or ______amount of pairs  
🗑
Passive   During_____________transport, substances are moved from areas of low concentration to high concentration  
🗑
Active   In order for the process of passive transport to occur the cell must supply an energy source called_____________  
🗑
Large; Endocystosis   If particles that are too ________pass easily through the membrane it can enter a cell by a process called __________.  
🗑
Exocytosis   Large particles can leave a cell by the process called________.  
🗑
Osmosis   The diffusion of water through a membrane  
🗑
Cell Membrane   Materials move in and out of a cell by passing through the_________________. It allows some materials to pass but prevents others.  
🗑
Water, Waste   A cell only survives if ______________is taken into the cell and _______________ are taken out.  
🗑
Thermal Radiation   is the release (diffusion) of heat into the air. Ex: visible light  
🗑
Diffusion (mixing)   the constant random motion of molecules from an area of high concentration to low concentration  
🗑
Gradient   Is the difference in concentration (cell membrane could be one). During diffusion molecules like to move down the __________.  
🗑
Gas, Liquid, and Solid   Diffusion happens in 3 states:______,_______,_______  
🗑
Gas   Diffusion happens the fastest in this state  
🗑
Solid   Slowest moving diffusion. Vibrates- doesn't move a lot  
🗑
Liquid   The 2nd fastest diffusion  
🗑
Temperature   Rate of Diffusion: 1  
🗑
Size of Molecule   Rate of Diffusion: 2  
🗑
Steepness Gradient   Rate of Diffusion: 3  
🗑
ATP   Energy made from glucose and oxygen  
🗑

🗑
Water   A ________ molecule, consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom  
🗑
Polar   A water molecule is also a ____________molecule  
🗑
Lipids   Fats, Oils, Waxes found in living things.  
🗑
Membrane; water   Cell_______are composed of special lipids that have one end that _____water.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
