Question
Answer
ATP   adenosine triphosphate, a molecule that acts as the main energy source for cell processes  
🗑
Carbohydrate   a class of energy-giving nutrients that includes sugars,starches,and fiber; contains carbon, hydrogen,and oxygen  
🗑
Lipid   a type of biochemical that does not dissolve in water; fats and steroids are lipids  
🗑
protein   a molecule that is made up of amino acids and that is needed to build and repair body structures and to regulate processes in the body.  
🗑
Phospholipid   a lipid that contains phosphorus and that is a structural component in cell membranes  
🗑
Consumer   an organism that eats other organisms or organic matter  
🗑
producer   an organism that can make its own food by using energy from its surroundings  
🗑
Nucleic acid   a molecule made up of subunits called nucleotides  
🗑
Decomposer   an organism that gets energy by breaking down the remains of dead organisms or animal wastes and consuming or absorbing the nutrients  
🗑
Archaebacteria   a kingdom made up of bacteria that live in extreme environments  
🗑
Cell membrane   a phospholipid layer that covers a cell's surface and acts as a barrier between the inside of a cell and the cell's environment  
🗑
Eubacteria   a kingdom that contains all prokaryotes except archaebacteria  
🗑
Eukaryote   an organism made up of cells that have a nucleus enclosed by a membrane; eukaryotes include animals,plants, and fungi but not archaebacteria or eubacteria  
🗑
Nucleus   in a eukaryotic cell,a membrane-bound organelle that contains the cell's DNA and that has a role in processes such as growth,metabolism,and reproduction  
🗑
Organelle   one of the small bodies in a cell's cytoplasm that are specialized to preform a specific function  
🗑
prokaryote   an organism that consists of a single cell that does not have a nucleus  
🗑
Ribosome   a cell organelle composed of RNA and protein ;the site of protein synthesis  
🗑
cell wall   a rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell  
🗑
chloroplasts   the organelle that uses the energy of sunlight to make food  
🗑
cytoskeleton   a web of proteins in the cytoplasm. It keeps the cell's membranes from collapsing.  
🗑
Endoplasmic Reticulum   a system of membranes that is found in a cell's cytoplasm and that assists in the production, processing, and transport of proteins and in the production of lipids  
🗑
Golgi complex   cell organelle that helps make and package materials to be transported out of the cell  
🗑
Lysosomes   a cell organelle that contains digestive enzymes  
🗑
Mitochondrion   in eukaryotic cells, the cell organelle that is surrounded by two membranes and that is the site of cellular respiration  
🗑
Multicellular   made of many cells- benefits-larger size, longer life, specialization  
🗑
Gene   one set of instructions for an inherited trait  
🗑
RNA   ribonucleic acid a molecule that is present in all living cells and that plays a role in protein production  
🗑
Nucleotide   in a nucleic-acid chain, a subunit that consists of a sugar, a phosphate, and a nitrogenous base  
🗑
DNA   deoxyribonucleic acid,a molecule that is present in all living cells and that contains the info. that determines the traits that a living thing inherits and needs to live  
🗑
Mutation   a change in the nucleotide-base sequence of a gene or DNA molecule  
🗑
Substitution   when the wrong base is used  
🗑
Insertion   Extra base is added  
🗑
deletion   a base is left out  
🗑
At what stage are the chromosomes copied   stage 1  
🗑
Are lipids hydrophobic or hydrophilic   hydrophobic  
🗑
lipids are compounds that can not_______   mix with water  
🗑
like carbohydrates,some lipids ____   store energy  
🗑
Other lipids form the_____   membranes of cells  
🗑
Phosolipids are...   the molecules that form much of the cell membrane  
🗑
T or F The head of the phosolipids molecule is attracted to water.   T  
🗑
T or F When phospholipids are in water the tails separate   F When phospholipids are in water the tails come together  
🗑
Fats and oils are...   lipids that store energy  
🗑
ATP is the ...   major energy-carrying molecule in the cell  
🗑
The energy in carbohydrates and lipids   must be transfered to ATP,which then provides fuel for cellular activities  
🗑
Nucleic acids   are large molecules made up of molecules called nucleotides  
🗑
There was to much info to post up on all of those pages so i just put the vocab and some   questions up here are all the page numbers she told us to study hope this helps a little

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.
