What is cell respiration?
Food molecules are broken down to form CO2 & H20 and release large amounts of energy.
When particles are moved through a membrane from a region of low concentration, the process is called....
Active transport
Diffusion of water is where the water....
moves toward the area of low concentration
How does reproduction relate to heridity?
Offspring inherit copies of their parents DNA
Define Heridity
passing of characteristics from parents to offspring
During diffusion how to particles move?
From areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration
What type of transport supplies a cell with glucose?
Passive Transport
What are ALL THINGS on this planet made of?
Matter
What is Matter?
particles
Define diffusion.
when the cells move from an area of high concentration to low concentration
How does a cell take in large particles?
Large particles are taken in by endocytosis.
How does a cell expel large particles?
expelled by exocytosis
what is passive transport?
does not require the use of energy
What is homeostasis ?
stable state of equilibrium
(to keep the same all the time)
What is osmosis?
water going through a membrane
(a type of diffusion)
The diffusion of water through a cell membrane is called....
osmosis
What do plants use to make glucose?
Photosynthesis
What happens during cell respiration?
food molecules are brokenm down to form CO2 and H2O and release large amounts of energy.
In which cells would you expect to find the greater number of mitochondria
active cells
An organism with chloroplasts is a....
consumer
Why are decomposer catagorized as consumers?
the must obtain food they need from other organisms. They cannot produce their own food.
Why are most cells 70 percent water?
most chemical reactions that occur in cells depend on the presence of water.
How are respiration and fermentation similiar?
Both processes release the energy stored in food.
How are respiration and fermentation different?
respiration requires Oxygen, Fermenation does not.
