and tails. The heads are (hydrophobic/hydrophilic) and cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials inthe cell. break down worn out cells parts to be recycled. Answer- lysosomes Powerhouse of the cell, organelle that is the site of ATP (energy) productionAnswer- mitochondria the cell membrane is made up of a bilayer Answer- phospholipid A cell membrane's phospholipid bilayer consists of heads

Animal cells require to gain energy in the form of ATP. This is done using cellular respiration which is oxygen (independent/dependent) A sac inside a cell that acts as a storage area for water and nutrients.Answer- vacuole A process where plants use the sun's energy to convert water and carbondioxide into sugars Answer- photosynthesis Answer- glucose, dependent the breakdown of glucose by enzymes, releasing energy and pyruvic acid.the first step in cellular respiration Answer- glycolysis second stage of cellular respiration, in which pyruvic acid is broken down intocarbon dioxide in a series of energy-extracting reactions Answer- Kreb's cycle series of carrier proteins that shuttle high-energy during ATP-generating reactions. third step of cellular respiration. Answer- electron, electrons , Any cells in the body other than reproductive cells Answer- somatic A cell containing only one set of chromosomes (haploid/diploid) Answer- haploid

A cell containing two sets of chromosomes, one set inherited from eachparent (haploid/diploid) Answer- haploid A segment of DNA on a chromosome that codes for a specific trait Answer- gene Different forms of a gene Answer- allele An organism that has two different alleles for a trait Answer- heterozygousAn organism that has two identical alleles for a gene Answer- homozygous

This is a type of asexual reproduction in which an organism replicates its DNA and divides in half, producing two identical daughter cells. Answer- binary fission Which organelle uses active transport in which substances are carried acrossthe cell membrane? A. lysosomeB. centriole c. vesicle Answer- vesicle Small, thin proteins that help support and give structure to a cell. A cell's cytoskeleton.

enzymes speed up/aid in the breakdown of chemical bonds through the addition of water. This is called Answer- hydrolysis A. microtubules B. cytoplasm C. spindle fibers Answer- microtubules More H+ means more (acidic/basic). More OH- means more (acidic/basic) Answer- acidic, basic (apoptosis/necrosis) programmed cell death designed to eliminate abnormal cells once the cell sense that it has mutation. Answer- apoptosis (apoptosis/necrosis) messy, injury-induced cell death, which can lead to sepsis. Basically just cell "explosion" Answer- necrosis regulate water flow and solutes through membrane. a form of (active/passive) transport where substances diffuse down their chemical gradient to an area of lower concentration. Answer- channels (active/passive) transport costs ATP Answer- active A (non-polar/polar) bond is when a bond is formed between two atoms thatshare electrons unequally. A (non-polar/polar) bond is when electrons are shared equally across allatoms in a molecule. Answer- polar, non-polar

B. peptidoglycan

C. glucose Answer- peptidoglycan Fungi cell walls are made of A. cellulose B. xylan C. chitin Answer- chitin A cell is when extracellular fluid has a higher solute concentration compared to the cytoplasm of the cell. Net flow of water willbe (in/out) of the cell Answer- hypertonic, out A cell is when extracellular fluid has a lower solute concentration compared to the cytoplasm of the cell. Net flow of water willbe (in/out) of the cell. Answer- hypotonic, in Having the same solute concentration as another solution.A. Isotonic B. hypotonic C. hypertonic Answer- isotonic Osmotic concentration of a solution is called its ; the number of moles of solute in 1 kg of water times the number ofparticles into which the solute dissociates A. gradientB. osmality C. osmosis Answer- osmality pressure is required to prevent the passage of solvent througha semipermeable membrane.
