| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| This is short for adenosine diphosphate. An organic compound that is composed of adenosine and two phosphate groups. With the addition of another phosphate group, it is converted to ATP for the storage of energy during cell metabolism. It then forms again | ADP |
| This is short for adnosine triphosphate. It is the main energy storage and transfer molecule in the cell. | ATP |
| This is a biological process that requires oxygen. | aerobic |
| This is a simple biological process not requiring oxygen. | anaerobic |
| This is the kingdom of unicellular prokaryotes that have cell walls without peptidoglycan. (bacteria that lives in harsh places) | Archaebacteria Kingdom |
| A major group of organisms, that are, in general, multicellular, capable of locomotion and responsive to their environment, and feed by consuming other organisms. | Anamalia Kingdom |
| This is the naming system Linneaus gave to living things, which uses the Latin name for the organism's genus and species. | Binomial nomenclature |
| This is the total amount of all living things within a specific area. | Biomass |
| This is the second step of photosynthesis, where a plant makes sugars and starches from carbon dioxide and ATP. This is a series of chemical reactions that take place in the chloroplasts and occur as part of the dark reactions of photosynthesis. | Calvin cycle |
| This is a compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms; it is used by cells to store and release energy. Sugars are made by chloroplasts through photosynthesis and consumed by mitochondria through cell respiration. | carbohydrate |
| This is the gas produced as a result of respiration. | Carbon dioxide |
| Process that releases energy by breaking down food in the presence of oxygen. Example: This is the reverse chemical process of photosynthesis.En Espanol: Este es el proceso que libera energía, rompiendo las moléculas de los alimentos en presenci | Cellular respiration |
| This is a green pigment in chloroplasts that traps light energy from the sun. | Chlorophyll |
| This is the kingdom of unicellular prokaryotes that have cell walls with peptidoglycan. (bacteria found in your body) | Eubacteria Kingdom |
| This is the kingdom of heterotrophs that obtain energy and nutrients from dead and decaying organic matter. ( ex. mushrooms) | Fungi Kingdom |
| This is any living thing without the power of locomotion that obtain energy from sunlight or make their own food. | Plant kingdom |
| This is the newest classification system with the highest rank of domain, followed by kingdom. There are three domains; one eukaryotic domain and two prokaryotic domains. | 6 Kingdom System |
