1
New cards

Ribosomes

protein synthesis

2
New cards

Endoplasmic reticulum

calcium storge, protein synthesis, lipid metabolism

  • consists of rough and smooth er

3
New cards

Rough ER

protein transport

4
New cards

Smooth ER

detoxification

5
New cards

Golgi apparatus

process and package proteins

6
New cards

Lysosomes

full of enzymes that break down excess or worn out cell parts

7
New cards

Vacuole

sequester waste products

8
New cards

Mitosis

somatic cells for the body

  • 2 daughter cells

9
New cards

Cytokinesis

concluding phase; cytoplasm splits in 2 identical cells

10
New cards

Meiosis

4 non-identical gamete cells

11
New cards

Meiosis Anaphase

allows for the random assortment of chromosomes, contributing to genetic diversity aong offspring

12
New cards

Gene

unit of paired nucleotides

13
New cards

Regulatory genes

produce proteins or RNA that control the expression of other genes

14
New cards

mRNA

  • messenger - carries to ribosome

15
New cards

rRNA

  • ribosome - location for protein synthesis

16
New cards

tRNA

  • transfer - decodes mRNA into a protein - polypeptide chain

17
New cards

Transcription

DNA → mRNA

18
New cards

Translation

mRNA → tRNA synthesis

19
New cards

RNA polymerase

makes m RNA

20
New cards

Isotope

same number of protons, different number of neutrons

21
New cards

Density

relationship between mass and volume

  • density = mass/volume

22
New cards

Condensation

gas → water/liquid

23
New cards

Evaporation

liquid/water → gas

24
New cards

Sublimination

solid → gas (no liquid phase)

25
New cards

Deposition

gas → solid (no liquid phase)

26
New cards

Mole

6.022 × 10(23) - avogardos number

27
New cards

Collision theory

for particles to react, they have to collide with each other with sufficient energy - activation energy

28
New cards

Equilibrium

when rate of forward reaction equals rate of reverse reaction in a closed system

29
New cards

Static equilibrium

rate of reactions are zero

30
New cards

Dynamic equilibrium

occur at the same time

31
New cards

Adhesion

binding/attraction between dissimilar molecules, atoms, surfaces, substances

  • water molecule sticking to glass

32
New cards

Cohesion

attraction of molecules for other molecules of same kind

  • water molecules bead together

33
New cards

Solution

homogenous mixture of one or more solutes dissolved in solvent

34
New cards

Solute

can be dissolved in small amount

35
New cards

Solvent

ability to dissolve in large amount, mostly in water

36
New cards

Hypertonic

more salt than hypotonic

37
New cards

Passive transport

difusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis

38
New cards

Diffusion

smaller particles

39
New cards

Facilitated diffusion

large particles

40
New cards

Osmosis

movement of water

41
New cards

Active transport

lower to higher concentration using ATP

42
New cards

What is formed when an acid reacts with a base?

salt and water

43
New cards

King henry doenst unually drink cold milk

Kilo, Hecto, Deca, Unit, Deci, Centi, Milli

44
New cards

Empirical evidence

info obtained through observation, experimentation, or other investigation process

45
New cards

Qualitative

quality or descriptive date

46
New cards

Quantitative

quantity or numerical date

47
New cards

Variables

a factor, condition, or item that can be changed, controlled or measured in an experiment

48
New cards

Independent variable

can change

49
New cards

DEpendent variable

can measure

50
New cards

Controlled variable

maintained

51
New cards

Causal relationships

connection between 2 variables where one variable influences or causes a change in other variable

52
New cards

Cause

event or action precipitationg outcome

53
New cards

Effect

result or outcome

54
New cards

Scientific method

observation → research → hypothesis → experiment → conclusion
