carbon dioxide

New cards
12

what is the difference between biomolecules

carbs used for immediate fuel, lipid is stores fuel, lipid is used for transport, protection, control, and nucleic acid is dna and stuff

New cards
13

glucose is major nutrients for most body cells

it is broken down during cellular respiration to produce atp the molecule that powers cellular activities

New cards
14

glycogen is the stored form of carb for

animal

New cards
15

Rna vs Dna what are sugars found in both

ribose and dioxyribose

New cards
16

what is starch

starch is a type of carbs made up of many glucose molecules linked together. it is a way plants store energy

New cards
17

what is cellulose

not digestiable to humans but it is a type of carb found in the cell walls of plants and it provides structure and support to the plant

New cards
18

the plasma membrane is descibed as being selectively permeable

it means it controls what enters and leaves the cell

New cards
19

vitamin a a fat soluble vitim moves across plasma membrane into the cell by

21

what is the mesoderm when it comes to the embryonic layer

is one of the three primary embryonic layers that form during early develoment, it is the middle layer, located between the ectoderm and endoderm. It gives rise to strucutres like muscles, bones, the heart, blood vessels, and kidneys
