Cells Test
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Gametes | the reproductive cells; eggs and sperm- Haploid |
| Haploid | a single set of chromosomes (HALF) |
| Diploid | containing 2 complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent. |
| Fertilization | cellular respiration without oxygen. Occurs mostly in human muscles cells. |
| Zygote | a fertilized egg |
| Male Gamete | sperm |
| Female Gamete | egg |
| Egg | a female reproductive cell |
| Sperm | a male reproductive cell that can fertilize an egg cell |
| Sexual Reproduction | a biological process by which plants and animals create offspring by combining their genetic material |
| Asexual Reproduction | reproduction not requiring fertilization; only one involves one parent. |
| Location of Meiosis | Ovaries and Testes |
| Location of Mitosis | Every where else but in your sex cells |
| Number of Chromosomes in Human | 46 |
| Organism | any living thing |
| Cell | the basic building blocks of life |
| 2 Things Plants Have That Animals Don't | 1.Cell Wall 2.Chloroplasts |
| 2 Things Animals Have That Plants Don't | 1.Lysosomes 2.Centrioles |
| Order of Life | cell, tissue, organ, organ system |
| Cell Theory | cells come the basic unit of life, Cells come from preexisting cells |
| Eukaryote | are all multi cellular organisms like plants animals that also have a nucleus |
| Prokaryote | cells without a nucleus |
| Cellular Respiration | a chemical process that allows organisms to convert food into control |
| Mitochondria | powerhouse of the cell |
| ATP | energy |
| Aerobic | oxygen |
| Anaerobic | without oxygen |
| Photosynthesis | process by which plants use light energy from the sun to produce food in the form of chemical energy from CO2 and water molecules |
| Light Reaction Stage | takes place in the thylakoid membrane, uses light energy to make ATP energy, oxygen is transferred into water |
| Calvin Cycle | the set of chemical reactions that take place in chloroplasts during photosynthesis |
| Transfer of Energy | the conversion of one form of energy into another, or the movement of energy from one place to another |
| Chlorophyll | green pigment that captures the sun’s energy |
| Chloroplast | process by which plants use light energy from the sun to produce food in the form of chemical energy from CO2 and water molecules |
| Normal Body Cell | 23 chromosomes |
| what do you have to do in order for CR to take place? | eat and breathe |
| what do plants use to capture light energy? | chlorophyll |
| what do plants produce? | oxygen and glucose |
| what do all cells have? | cell membrane |
| what do groups of tissues form | organs |
| what happens in the Calvin cycle? | glucose is synthesized from carbon dioxide |
| what has 23 chromosomes | sperm and egg cells |
| what do plants provide for animals | food, oxygen, and shelter |
| what is produced from animals in meiosis | gametes |
| why do plants reflect green? | they absorb all other colors and reflect green |
| what is provided from the sun for photosynthesis? | energy |
| what are you likely to find in a maple leaf's cells and not in a humans cells? | cell wall or chloroplasts |
| what organelle produces ATP ? | mitochondria |
| what happens when two gametes meet? | they form a zygote |
| what are all plant and animal cells surrounded by? | a thin cell membrane |
