Organic/Inorganic/Active/Passive/CR and PS
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| a substance that contains carbon and hydrogen and is found in living or dead things | organic |
| a substance that does not contain much carbon and is found in nonliving things | inorganic |
| an inorganic compound that is essential to life | water, calcium compounds, nitrogen compounds |
| a type of compound that the body uses for quick energy | carbohydrate (like sugars and starches) |
| a type of compound that the body uses of protection of organs and is also a source of stored energy | lipid/fat |
| a type of compound that make a organism's genes | nucleic acids like DNA |
| a type of compound that builds muscle | protein |
| a type of protein that builds or breaks up molecules in living things | enzyme |
| solid water is unique because... | it floats. so in winter the top of a pond might freeze but the bottom will stay liquid and the fish will survive. |
| give one reason why water is essential to life? | it is sticky so it can travel through organisms OR it controls Earth's climate so that it doesn't get too hold or too cold |
| what word describes all the reactions in the body | metabolism |
| a process where plants take in sunlight, make glucose (food), and release carbon dioxide | photosynthesis |
| a process where living things take in oxygen, break down glucose (food), and releases carbon dioxide | cellular respiration |
| a pigment in plant cells that captures sunlight | chlorophyll in a chloroplast |
| how do plants store their carbohydrates? | as starch |
| if an organisms body runs out of oxygen while trying to break down food (glucose) the process is called | fermentation |
| where does cellular respiration take place? | mitchondria |
| bacteria do fermentation to create lactic acid. Humans use this lactic acid to make | dariy products like yogurt and cheese |
| yeast do fermentation and it creates carbon dioxide. Humans use yeast to... | make bread rise |
| do plants do cellular respiration and photosynthesis | YES! |
| do animals do photosynthesis? | NO! |
| What builds up in people when muscles begin to do fermentation (because they run out of oxygen)? | lactic acid |
| the names for enzymes always end in what letters? | -ase |
| name the 4 organic compounds | carbs, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids |
| which part of the leaf allows carbon dioxide to enter and oxygen to exit? | stomata |
| what three things are needed in order for plants to do photosynthesis | light, water and carbon dioxide |
| where does water enter plants? | water goes into the soil then up through the roots and into the stem |
| what two things are made in photosynthesis? | oxygen and glucose(food) |
| what two things are needed in order for cellular respiration to occur? | glucose(food) and water |
| what three things are made during cellular respiration? | energy, carbon dioxide and water |
| Which type of cellular transport required energy? | active |
| which type of cellular transport does NOT require energy? | passive |
| what is the name of the molecule that cells use for energy? | ATP |
| what are the 3 types of passive transport that you know? | diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis |
| what are the 3 types of active transport that you know? | active, endocytosis and exocytosis |
| which type of cellular transport has molecules moving from high concentration to low concentration? | passive (diffusion) |
| which type of cellular transport has molecules moving from low concentration to high concentration? | active transport |
| Name the type of transport: molecules move from high to low concentration but have to travel through protein channels or carriers. | facilitated diffusion (passive) |
| name the type of transport: small molecules (like gases) move from high to low concentration | diffusion (passive) |
| name the type of transport: the diffusion of water from high to low concentration | osmosis (passive) |
| name the type of transport: cells take in large molecules by wrapping around them and forming vesicles | endocytosis (active) |
| name the type of transport: cells release large molecules by pushing vesicles to the cell membrane and pushing the contents out. | exocytosis (active) |
| What is it called when the flow of molecules is balanced. It is flowing one way at the same rate that it flows the other? | equillibrium |
| is facilitated diffusion active or passive? | passive |
| is endocytosis and exocytosis active or passive? | active |
| in passive transport molecules move from | high to low |
