monomer is one molecule from the whole polymer
condensation means to remove water or known as the dehydration synthesis
dehydration means to lose water
hydrolysis means to split a polymer by adding water

polar means a molecule that has a positive charge on one side and a negative on the other
hydrogen bond is one whole molecule and one other attract each other with polar attraction
diffusion movement of small particle from high concentration to low concentration with no energy
osmosis diffusion of water through semi-permeable membrane from high concentration to low with no energy
Unicellular these organisms exist as a single cells (ex. amoebas and bacteria)
Eukaryota are cells that contain a nucleus
prokaryotic cells that do not have a nucleus
Autotrophs are like plants, means the organism can make its own food
Heterotroph is an organism that must find and eat other organisms in order to obtain food
Diffusion Is the movement of very small particles from an area of higher water concentration, with the concentration gradient
Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower water concentration
Hypotonic is when their is more salt inside the cell rather than the outside of the cell
