QuestionAnswer
Hierarchy of Organization atoms make cells, cells make tissue, & tissue makes organs
Tissue identical cells with identical function
Population nuumber of the same species
Community the species living in one area
Emergent Properties new properties which emerge as you proceed from one level to the next
Diffusion movement of substances from high to low concentration
Thermodynamics study of energy transformations
What is another name for wasted energy? Heat
Cell Theory cells come from other cells, they are the smallest unit, organisms must have cells
systematic observations one after another
Laws of Thermodynamics energy cannot be made or destroyed, every energy transformation increases disorder in the universe
Chemical bonding uses what particle? electrons
Isotopes when an atom of an element has more or less neutrons than the common, are unstable and want to be something else
atoms combine to form... molecules
What orbits the atomic nucleus? electrons (-)
Ionic bonds weak bonds, easily broken by H2O
Covalent bonds are polar (equal sharing) or non polar (unequal sharing)
Properties of water cohesive, adhesive, resists change in temp, high heat of vaporization, expands when frozen
Surface Tension creates film on water
Kenectic energy molecular motion, generates heat
Heat total kinectic energy measure in calories
temperature measure of the average kinectic energy
calorie 1 calorie = 1 g of H2O to raise temp 1 C
Density measure of molecules for a specific bond (fewer molecules = less dense)
Concentration Gradient there is more on one side of the cell than the other
Hydrophobic not attracted to H20
Hydrophillic attracted to H20
Dissociation seperation of charged particles when placed in water
Acids are... proton donors
Bases are... proton acceptors
Osmosis diffusion of H2O across a semi permeable membrane
cell membrane controls substances leaving or entering; maintains concentration gradience
Hypotonic Hypertonic Isotonic more H20, less dots less H20, more dots equal dots & H2O
4 classes of Biochemical Compounds Carbs, lipids, protein, DNA/RNA
isomer a different form of the same molecule
enantomers mirror images of each other
geometric isomers variation in arragement about a double bond
Polymerization process of making polymers
Monomier basic units
polymer completely organic compound
Carbohydrates organic molecules made of sugars & their polymers
Monosacchrides simplest sugars
glycosidic linkage chemical bond between two monosacchrides
Saturated fat no double bonds, many hydrogen, solid at room temp, most animal fats
Unsaturated fat double bonds, liquid at room temp, most plant fats
Cell recognition ability of a cell to determine if other cells are the same or different
Cell markers vary between species, individuals of the same species, cells of the same individual
Charged ions... never cross the membrane

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
