Question | Answer |
---|---|
All cells contain what to allow them to break the phosphate bonds of ATP? | Enzymes |
ATP releases what to fuel cell functions? | Energy |
Energy from the cell does what? | Moves substances in and out, carries out chemical reactions, and provides the cell with a stable temperature |
In binary fission what duplicates itself? | Chromosome |
Viruses can only reproduce where? | Within a host |
A virus will use what of an infected cell to produce other viruses? | Nucleic acid and enzymes |
What does a virus become if it presents no signs of infection but becomes active later? | Dormant |
Abnormally high body temperature | Fever |
Provides structure to the cell and supports other parts of the cell. | Cytoplasm |
Parasitic infection of red blood cells by a plasmodium virus transmitted by the bite of a mosquito. | Malaria |
Gives a bacterium its shape. | Outer cell wall |
May be unicellular or multicellular | Fungi |
Found in and on the body | Fungi |
Can spread to the inside of the body through spores | Fungi |
Mites and lice generally affect what area in a host's body? | The Surface |
pH closer to O | Acidic |
pH closer to 14 | Basic or Alkaline |
Process in which glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide and water. | Cell Metabolism or Cellular Respiration |
96.5-99.5 | Normal range of body temperature |
Unicellular organism that is adapted for life in water and forms cysts that pass from host to host. | Protozoan |
Bacteria that can reproduce only within the cells of a living host. | Rickettsiae |
Protozoa | Unicellular |
Live in water and soil | Protozoa |
Spread from food or water contaminated with cysts | Protozoa |
Parasites such as lice,fleas, mosquitos, and ticks may be what? | Vectors |
Processes that lead to chemical reactions in the body. | Metabolism |
Primary source of energy in the body. | Adenosine Triphosphate |
Cell Theory | All organisms are made of small, enclosed bodies called cells and of the products of those cells. |
Nucleic acids within shells of protein. | Virus |
Live off of nutrients in the host's body or blood or on the host itself. | Parasitic Worms |
Have several stages of life involving eggs, larvae, and adult stages. | Parasitic Worms |
Have a normal pH value with a narrow range above and below that value. | Body Fluids |
Normal human activities can lead to major shifts of what? | pH |
Characteristics of living organisms. | Reproduction and growth, metabolism and movement, adaptation and responsiveness |
Part of the cell that provides a passageway for the transport of materials within the cell and synthesizes lipids. | Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Multicelluar or unicellular organism that reproduces by means of spores and may be pathogenic or nonpathogenic. | Fungus |
Colonize with each other so that another way of indentifying them is by the shape of their colonies. | Cocci and bacilli |
Process of chemical synthesis in which small molecules are combined to produce larger molecules. | Anabolism |
Normal body temperature. | 98.6 |
Body temperature is higher or lower during sleep? | Lower |
Regulates the body temperature. | Hypothalamus |
Part of the cell that produces ATP and serves as the site of cellular respiration. | Mitochondria |
What does cell function do? | Absorb material to support cell functions and to release energy, synthesize protein and reproduce itself, excretes waste products and support functions specific to the cell |
