Biology

TermDefinition
Virchow cell reproduction
Schleiden plant cells
Schwann animal cells
Hooke first looked at a cork cells
Cell Theory cell is the basic unit of life, all living things are made up of cells, cells come from pre-existing cells
cell membrane selectively permeable, has a phospholipid bilayer with proteins embedded within it, called the fluid mosaic model
Cell wall plant cells, some bacteria, composed of cellulose, good with turgid pressure, rigid for support of plants
Nucleus nuclear pores, contains DNA, center of eukaryote cell, contains a nucleoulus
ribosomes site of protein synthase
SER transports material, doesn't have ribosomes attached to it
RER has ribosomes attached to it, transports proteins throughout the cell
Chloroplast site of photosynthesis occurs, has chlorophyll, double membrane organelle, once free living, contains: thylakoid membrane, stroma, grana & site of light reaction and Calvin cycle
Mitochandria site of the cellular resp.,double membrane organelle, has DNA, has inner folds called cristae, powerhouse of the cell, ATP
Golgi Bodies packages and secretes material form vesicles
Chromosomes contains genetic material-DNA is at the nucleus of the eukaryote cell
Vacuoles organelle that stores material-large in plants
Prokaryotes membrane bound organelles, circular chromosomes strand (circular strand of DNA), comes from archeabacteria & eubacteria (Monera) that evolved 3.5 billion years ago
Endosymbiotic Theory mitochondria and chloroplast were once free-living organisms then another organelle engulfed them and they lived in a symbiotic relationships
Eukaryotes has a nuclei, membrane bound organelle, evolved from prokaryotes 1.5 billion years ago
Organization of cells in our body cells, tissues, organs, organ system, organism
Scientific Method hypothesis, controlled experiment, data, conclusion
Homeostasis the internal balance of an organism
Metabolisis the sum of the chemical activity
Do metabolisis and homeostasis work "hand in hand?" YES
Diffusion the movement of material from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, passive transport
Osmosis the diffusion of material through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high to low concentration (passive transport)
Passive Transport Does not require ATP, from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, with the gradient
Active Transport requires ATP, from low to high concentration, against the gradient
Endocytosis bulk transport inside the cell involving pinching of the cell membrane to form a vesicle
Exocytosis bulk transport outside the cell which involves pinching of the cell membrane to form a vesicle
What does the movement of ions require? ATP, a membrane protein and the NA, K pump
How does ATP turn into ADP? ATP loses a phosphate by giving up some energy (it has three phosphates) to become ADP (which has 2 phosphates
Nucleus where the protons and neutrons are located in the middle of the atom
Neutrons have no charge in the nucleus
Protons have a positive charge in the nucleus
Electrons have a negative charge outside the nucleus orbiting it
Ionic Bond forms when atoms exchange electrons
Covalent Bonds forms when atoms are shared- nonmentals form convalent bonds and carbon has 4 covalent bonds
hydrogen bonds forms with water due to polarity
Do Hydrogen bonds form in DNA? Yes
Why is water polar? unequal sharing of electrons
What is the 8-octect rule? when electrons form a bond to make an element more stable by having 8 electrons total in the element
If a neutron loses an electron, does it become positive or negative? positive
If neutron gains an electron, does it become positive or negative? negative
Elements made up of one type of atom found on th periodic table
Peptid bonds forms between amino acids during protein synthases
Organic Chemistry the study of carbon molecules
Carbohydrates main source of energy, used in cellular resp. & C, O, H
Monosaccharides simple surgars, one ring, galactose, frucose, & glucose C O H
Disaccharides 2 sugars, surcrose, & malatose C O H
Polysaccharides hundreds of sugars, starch, glycogen, cellulose
Proteins C H O N made up of many nucleo-acids many functions
What are the three Domains Bacteria, Archae, & Eukarya
Are bacteria and archea prokaryotes? yes
What is Monera its the name people use to call the bacteria and archea group it had archaebacteria and eukaryabacteria in that group
What are the kingdoms of eukarya protista, fungi, plantae & anamalia
Ex. of fungi bread mold & yeast
Ex. of protista euglina, paramecia, alge, & amobea
What colors of alge are there? red, green, brown
Ex. Anamalia Invertebrates: sponges, worms, insects, starfish, mollusk Vertebrates: amphibians, mammals, birds fish, & reptiles
Ex. Plantae plants, ferns
What percent of energy is passed through a food chain? 10%
What is the order from the biosphere-species? biosphere, biome, ecosystem, community, population, species/ organism
Carnivore only eats meat
omnivore eats both plants and animals
Herbivore only eats plants
ecology the study of interactions between organisms and its enviorments
biosphere part of the earth that can sustain life
autotroph produces its own food
heterotroph consumers other organisms
decomposers breakdown organisms and return nutrients to system
hydrolysis adding a water molecule to break down a compound
dehydrolysis synthasis subtracting a water molecule to break down a compound
exergonic reactions release energy when breaking down polymers
endergonic reactions store energy when building polymers
What is a benedict solution tests for monosaccharides in the food lab
Cell plate forms in cells during cytokinesis
Oogensis female overies unqual cell division meiosis until fertilization take place; females are born with all eggs
Spermantation male testes-four sperm-equal cell division-complete cell division
Who is Mendal? father of genetics studied the pea plant and observed how traits were passed down from one generation to the next
Phenotype physical traits
genotype genetic expression of trait
How did mutations in the DNA happen? change in the DNA sequence
Hemophilia sex linked traits
Transcription DNA to mRNA occurs in nucleus
Translations occurs at the ribosomes production of protein using the information on the mRNA tRNA carries amnio acids to ribosomes
Capillaries diffusion of gasses O2 and CO2
Vein carry blood toward the heart
Arteries carry blood away from the heart
Where does most digestion occur? Small intestines
Where does the digestive system begin the oral cavity
Gall Bladder produces bile
Mammels warm blooded, nurse young with mammary glands

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
