New cards

Interphase

The stage of the cell cycle during which the number of mitochondria increases in a cell.

2
New cards

Rate of Photosynthesis

Can be measured using  and  only.

3
New cards

Chlorophyll response to light colors

Red: absorbs; Green: reflects; Blue: absorbs.

4
New cards

Anaerobic processes producing CO2

Ethanol (alcohol) fermentation.

5
New cards

Final product of aerobic respiration

Ethanol, which takes place inside cells.

6
New cards

Cell respiration definition

A controlled release of energy in the production of food from organic compounds.

7
New cards

Photosynthesis activity in plants

Often reduced in the middle of the day due to stomata closing to preserve water.

8
New cards

Hydrogen bonds

Connect hydrogen to oxygen between two different water molecules.

9
New cards

Variable affecting enzyme activity

Light intensity has the least effect on enzyme activity.

12
New cards

Synthesis

The production of chemical compounds by reaction to form something new.

13
New cards

Cell theory contributions

All living organisms are composed of cells; all cells come from pre-existing cells; cells are the smallest unit of life.

14
New cards

Structure of cell membrane

Maintained mainly by phospholipids.
