Biochemistry And Cells

Unicellular

Made up of one cell

Multicellular

Made up of multiple cells

What is the ascending levels of organization for organisms

Cells, Tissues, Organs, Organ Systems, Organism

Homeostasis

An organism being able to live with a stable internal environment within themselves

What are the two thing regulated by Homeostasis?

Temperature and PH levels

Are Viruses Living or Nonliving? Why?

Nonliving. Viruses cannot reproduce without a host and Viruses cannot develop.

What is the MAIN genetic material of viruses?

DNA or RNA but not BOTH

What is the MAIN genetic material for bacteria?

DNA

What are the Kinds of transport?

Passive and Active

Osmosis

The diffusion of water in or out of a cell from high to low concentration

Facilitated Diffusion

Movement of large or charged molecules in or out of the cell (high to low concentration)

Protein Pump

movement in or out of the cell that requires energy (low to high)

Endocytosis

Large amounts of molecules being brought into the cell via vesicles

Exocytosis

Large amounts of molecules being brought out of the cell through vesicles

diffusion

Movement of small particles in/out of the cell using no energy

Low To High

Against the gradient

Characteristics of Active Transport

High to Low

With the gradient

Characteristics of passive transport
