Q

Ability of the cell membrane to allow some substances to pass while blocking others

A

Selective Permeability

18
Q

When water passes through a cell membrane?

19
Q

What cell structure conducts photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy?

20
Q

How do organelles work together to maintain cell function?

A

the Nucleus controls gene expression, the ER synthesizes proteins and lipids the golgi apparatus processes and ships them and the mitochondria provides energy.

21
Q

Compare and contrast the structures and functions of mitochondria and chloroplasts?

A

Mitochondria: Double Membrane, produces ATP through cellular respiration, found in all eukaryotic cells
Chloroplasts: Double membrane, conducts photosynthesis to produce glucose, found only in plant cells.

22
Q

Concept that all living organisms are composed of cells, and all cells arise from pre-existing cells?

23
Q

another term for cell membrane?

A

plasma membrane

24
Q

Movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration?

25
Movement of molecules across a membrane using energy?
Active transport
26
Movement of molecules across a membrane without the use of energy?
Passive transport.
27
Solution with equal concentration of solutes inside and outside
Isotonic
28
Process by which cells generate ATP by breaking down glucose and other molecules?
ATP
29
Sum of all chemical reactions in an organism?
Metabolism
30
Protein that catalyzes biochemical reactions?
Enzymes
31
Genetic material that carries the instructions for life??
Dna
32
Molecule involved in translating genetic information into proteins?
RNA
33
The process contributes to the nutrient cycle in the soil, facilitating the growth of plants which in turn support various ecosystems
Nutrient Flow
34
Why do plants appear green to us and how pigments absorb and reflect light??
Chlorophyll absorbs light most efficiently in the blue and red wavelengths but reflects green light, making plants appear green to our eyes.
35
Light dependent reactions step 1
Water enters the chloroplasts
36
Light Dependent Reactions step 2
Water is split by light energy, producing oxygen (02) and hydrogen ions (H+)
37
Light Dependent Reactions Step 3
The energy from this reaction produces ATP and NADPH
38
A membrane-bound compartment inside chloroplasts, the sit of light dependent reactions of photosynthesis?
Thylakoid
39
What are the products of photosynthesis
Glucose and oxygen
40
What are the reactants of photosynthesis?
Water and CO2
41
Is the independent variable what changes or stays the same?
Changes
42
Dependent Variable
What responds
