  1. Cut & Paste a picture of hydrogen bonds between water molecules (know how to draw):

  1. Explain the difference between periods and groups on the periodic table.

Columns are called groups and rows are periods

  1. Cut & paste the structures of the monomers of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. (like the ones you drew in the Biomolecules foldable)

  1. Explain the main difference between prokaryotes & eukaryotes.

a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles are only present in eukaryotic cells.

  1. “Little organs” in the cell are known as organelles.

  2. The cytoplasm is the gel-like substance found throughout the cell outside the nucleus.

  3. What is the function of the nucleus in a cell?

Control center of the cell

  1. How are materials able to enter and exit the cell?

Through the cell membrane

  1. proteins are assembled by ribosomes.

  2. What are the two types of endoplasmic reticulum?

1- rough endoplasmic reticulum

2- smooth endoplasmic reticulum

  1. What makes the rough endoplasmic reticulum “rough?”

ribosomes

  1. The golgi apperatus___________ modifies, sorts, and packages proteins.

  2. What is the cleanup crew of the cell?

lysosomes

  1. True/False: The lysosomes digest lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins into small molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell.

False

  1. True/False: Mitochondria are organelles with their own membrane.

True

  1. What is the site of cellular respiration in an animal cell?

Mitochondria

  1. What is the purpose of cellular respiration?

To break down sugar when oxygen is present

  1. What is the site of photosynthesis in a plant cell?

chromoplast

  1. List three major differences between plant and animal cells.

Plant cells have a cell wall large central vacuole and have chloroplast while animal cells do not

  1. Vacuoles store materials such as __fluid__________, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates.

  2. Which two kingdoms include organisms that are classified as prokaryotes?

Bacteria and Protista

  1. Which four kingdoms include organisms that are classified as eukaryotes?

Animal, Plant, Fungi, and Protista

  1. Prokaryotes are always unicellular___, while eukaryotes can be multicellular__ or unicellular.

  2. Where is the DNA found in a prokaryote?

Free-floating around in the cytoplasm

  1. Explain the term “bilayer of phospholipids.”

consists of two layers of phospholipids, with a hydrophobic, or water-hating, interior and a hydrophilic, or water-loving, exterior

  1. What would happen to a cell placed in a hypotonic solution?

Solute would leave the cell and go into the solution

  1. Explain what happens when a cell reaches a dynamic equilibrium with its surroundings.

Water and solute levels will remain equal inside and outside the cell

  1. True or False: Prokaryotes are always unicellular.

True

  1. True or False: Eukaryotes are always multicellular.

False

  1. True or False: Eukaryotes contain membrane-bound organelles.

True

  1. What is the purpose of mitosis?

To produce two daughter cells from one cell

  1. List and describe the 3 stages of Interphase.

G1-Cell growth, S-DNA Sythnsis, G2-Cell Growth

  1. The cell cycle_____ is the series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide.

  2. True or False: Prophase is the first and longest stage of mitosis.

True

  1. True or False: Sister chromatids are pulled apart during metaphase.

False
