| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Control/Control Group | variable that doesn't change throughout the experiment |
| Lipids | carbon and hydrogen called fatty acids. Stores energy and protection. Phospholipids |
| Carbohydrates | provide structural support, made of atoms of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Found in form of simple sugars |
| Proteins | building blocks of life. Amino acids |
| Nucleic Acids | DNA and RNA. nucleotides |
| enzyme | breaks down waste, lysosomes |
| catalyst | speeds up/slows down a reaction |
| Nucleus | holds DNA, controls cell activity |
| Cell Membrane | regulates what comes in and out of the cell |
| Ribosomes | produce proteins |
| Mitochondria | uses glucose to create ATP |
| Chloroplast | anaerobic respiration without oxygen |
| Cell Wall | rigid outside barrier |
| Lysosomes | digestive enzymes, breaks down waste |
| Eukaryote | organism whole cell that has a nucleus |
| Prokaryote | single celled organism that lacks a nucleus |
| Binary Fission | asexual bacterial reproduction that rapidly reproduces two identical daughter cells |
| virus | a gene wrapped in proteins |
| virus reproduction | enters the cell and makes copies. Attach, invade, copy, release. Attach, invade, incorporate |
| Diffusion | passive movement of H2O molecules from regions of high concentration to low |
| Passive transportation | movement of molecules from areas of high too low. EX: diffusion |
| active transport | movement of ions across cell membrane into a region of low to high |
| hypertonic | lower concentration of solute on the outside than inside. Net outflow (more going out) |
| hypotonic | lower concentration on the solute on the inside than outside. Net inflow |
| isotonic | equal concentration, no growth |
| photosynthesis | 6CO2+6H2O+sunlight = C6H12O6+6O2v |
| aerobic | C6H12O6+6O2=6CO2+6H2O+32ATP |
| lactic acid | C6H12O6+2ADP+2 PHOSPHATE = 2LACTIC ACID+2ATP |
| Xylem | transports water from the roots |
| Phloem | transport food/sugars |
| Transpiration Cohesion hypothesis | movement through water in cell. |
