Essential terms for STAAR-EOC Biology
Help!
|
|
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| show | process by which a new cell becomes more specialized, i.e becomes a certain cell in the body (brain cell, skin cell, blood cell)
🗑
|
||||
| show | process by which a cell maintains a constant internal environment. Cells excrete waste and take in nutrients to maintain a healthy state.
🗑
|
||||
| prokaryotes | show 🗑
|
||||
| eukaryotes | show 🗑
|
||||
| diffusion | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | movement of WATER through a selectively permeable membrane from a high concentration to a low concentration
🗑
|
||||
| active transport | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | moving materials with the concentration gradient (from a high to low concentration); does not require energy
🗑
|
||||
| facilitated transport | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | An environment in which the water and solute concentrations are equal inside and outside cell. Cell stays the same size.
🗑
|
||||
| show | An environment in which solute concentration is greater outside the cell and water is higher inside the cell, so water flows out of the cell.
🗑
|
||||
| hypotonic | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A cell takes material into itself (cell “eating”); it wraps it up in its cell membrane and pulls it inside.
🗑
|
||||
| exocytosis | show 🗑
|
||||
| carbohydrate | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Used to provide structural support in the body. Monomers: chain of amino acids (CHON). Enzymes are proteins.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A polymer made of monomers called nucleotides (CHONP) that store genetic information
🗑
|
||||
| show | Process of cell division. Results in 2 daughter cells identical to the parent cell. Used for growth and repair of cells.
🗑
|
||||
| somatic cells | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | a pair of identical chromosomes as a result of DNA replication
🗑
|
||||
| show | 2n; double set of chromosomes
🗑
|
||||
| haploid | show 🗑
|
||||
| cancer | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Proteins that catalyze reactions by lowering the activation energy needed; speeds up the reaction. (ends in -ase)
🗑
|
||||
| show | a single unit or building block of a larger biomolecule
🗑
|
||||
| polymer | show 🗑
|
||||
| virus | show 🗑
|
||||
| capsid | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | virus that infects bacteria; -phage = destroy
🗑
|
||||
| lytic infection | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | type of viral reproduction - 1.virus enters cell, 2.embeds cell’s DNA, 3.viral DNA is copied when the host cell replicates
🗑
|
||||
| vaccine | show 🗑
|
||||
| chloroplasts | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | organelle which converts glucose to ATP (energy)
🗑
|
||||
| show | to make, put together
🗑
|
||||
| show | organelle involved in protein production; embeded with ribosomes
🗑
|
||||
| genome | show 🗑
|
||||
| interphase | show 🗑
|
||||
| prophase | show 🗑
|
||||
| metaphase | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | division of the cytoplasm and organelles during nuclear division
🗑
|
||||
| show | part of cell cycle involving DNA replication. Occurs during Interphase
🗑
|
||||
| show | a "pit stop" where a cell leaves the cell cycle and stops replicating
🗑
|
||||
| Lysosomes | show 🗑

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.
