Term
Definition
Alkali Metals   • Group 1 • Highly reative metals  
🗑
Alkali earth metals   • Group 2 • Reactive metals  
🗑
halogens   • Group 17 (or 7) • Non-metals • One of the most reactive groups  
🗑
Noble gases   • Group 18 (or 8) • Most stable • Rarely reactive  
🗑
hydrogen   • The group of 1 • Placed on metals side due to similar properties but is a non metal  
🗑
Stage 1 Interphase   • The longest stage; during which a cell carries out its regular functions • DNA is in long thin strands Near the end DNA is duplicated and more organelles are formed  
🗑
Phase 1 Prophase   • DNA condenses into chromosomes, which consists 2 identical sister chromatids, held together by a centromere • The nuclear membrane breaks down • Spindle finders are visible  
🗑
Stage 2 Mitosis   Phase 1 Prophase Phase 2 Metaphase Phase 3 Anaphase Phase 4 Telophase  
🗑
Phase 2 Metaphase   • Chromosomes line up along the center of the cell • Spindle fibers are visible  
🗑
Phase 3 Anaphase   • The centromeres split, sister chromatids separate into daughter chromosomes and begin to move to opposite ends of the cell, being pulled to the spindle fibers  
🗑
Phase 4 Telophase   • Daughter chromosomes stretch out and become thinner- no longer visible • New nuclear membranes form  
🗑
Stage 3 Cytokinesis   • Final stage of cell division • Cytoplasm divides into 2 identical daughter cells  
🗑
Tissue   A collection of similar cells that perform a particular, but limited, function  
🗑
Epithelial tissue   Thin sheet of cells covering surfaces and lining organs  
🗑
Muscle tissue   Bundles of long cells (muscle fibers) that can shorten (contract)  
🗑
Connective tissue   Various types of cells & fibers held together by a matrix (solid/liquid/gel)  
🗑
Nerve tissue   Long thin cells w/ fine branches that can conduct electrical impulses  
🗑
4 major types of tissue   Epithelial tissue Muscle tissue Connective tissue Nerve tissue

🗑
The Shoot System   · Conducts photosynthesis and produces flowers for sexual reproduction · Three main parts: leaf, flower and stem  
🗑
Dermal tissue system   forms the outer surface  
🗑
Vascular tissue system   responsible for transportation of water & minerals through plant  
🗑
Ground tissue system   make up all other structures  
🗑
photosynthesis equation   carbon dioxide + water —> glucose + oxygen + water. chemical equation 6CO2 + 6H2O —> C6H12O6 + 6O2  
🗑
how do plants guard against water loss   Through the stomata/guard cells (close when water is low), and the cuticle (waxy to prevent water loss)  
🗑
LAWS of reflection:   • The angle of reflection (r) is always equal to the angle of incidence • All the light that reaches our eyes initially came from a light source • Light will always take the fastest route  
🗑
speed of an object through a medium equation   v=c/n

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
