bad ldl single bond
Unsaturated:
good HDL double bond.
specific info about you from mypyramid.gov:
my pyramid planner
"Review Delphic Oracle. What caused her ""visions""?"
Hydrocarbons seeping through the ground caused hallucinations.
3 Main parts of most Cells?
"Plasma membrane, Cytoplasm, nucleus/nucleoid."
Prokaryotic:
Neucleoid (Bacteria)single celled organisms.
Eukaryotic:
Neucleus (Plants and Animals)multi-celled organisms.
Compare and Contrast: plant and animal cells
"Animal cell: no cell wall, smaller vacoule, no chloroplast : Plant cell: Cell wall, larger vacuole, and chloroplast."
solute does what
dissolves in the solovent
solovent does what
dissolves the solute
Hypertonic:
Concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside.
Hypotonic
Concentration of solutes outside the cell is lower than inside the cell.
    Isotonic:
The concentration of solutes outside the cell is equal to that inside the cell.
Organelle means?
specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function
Cell Theory:
"Every organism made of cells, Cells are made from Cells, Cells are the smallest unit of life."
SEM
Scanning electron microscope.
TEM
Transmission electron microscope.
Osmosis means?
Diffusion (movement) of fluid through semi-permeable membrane from a solution.
Diffusion means?
Movement of water.
Why are diffusion and osmosis important to your cells?
Brings water in and out of the cell.
"Why are cell membranes ""semi-permiable""?"
They decide what comes in or out of a cell.
Describe basic structure of Eukaryotic cells:
Bi-layer of protein.
What is ATP?
The energy produced from cellular respiration.
Why are you cells mitochondrion so imortant to your existance?
They give our cells energy for us to live.
Photosynthesis:
Process by which organisms (mainly plants) use sunlight energy (solar energy) to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugars.
Formula for Photosynthesis:
12(water) + 6 (carbon) = 6 (oxygen) + glucose + 6(water)
Where in the chloroplast do each of the reactions of photosythesis occur?
"Thykloid membrane, Stroma"
    Autotrophs:
make their own food
Heterotrophs:
don’t make their own food
What are Pigments and why are they important for photosynthesis?
They attract the sunlight needed for photosynthesis.
Carrotniods

xanthrophylls
yellow-brown
Anthocyanin
"red, purple, blue"
Why do leaves change color in the fall?
The chlorophyll decays.
"Why is photosythesis an ""endergonic"" reaction?"
It uses sunlight as intial energy.
Why are stroma important to plants?
Controls the amount of water coming into a cell.
Why is photosynthesis important to your existance?
All organisms need food but we all rely on those that can produce their own through photosynthesis.. welcome to the food chain.
Cellular Respiration:
Process of which sugars are produced into energy through oxidation.
Cellular Respiration Formula:
6(water) + glucose + 6(oxygen) = 12(water) + 6 (carbon)
Anaerobic:
Uses no oxygen and only produces about 2 ATP.
  Aerobic:
Uses oxygen and produces 36 ATP.
What are the 2 main kinds of anaerobic respiration-fermentation? Compare and Contrast.
Alcoholic fermentation(used when fruit etc. breaks down) & lactate fermentation (when muscles are excerted and need more energy)
Why aren't there anaerobic elephants?
Because they are to big to be supported anaerobically.
What is glycolysis?
Splitting of glucose molecules.
What are the 3 main stages of aerobic respiration?
Glycolisis; Creb Cycle; Electron Transfer chain.
Examples of anaerobic organisms:
Bacteria; Lactic Acid; Fungi; Yeast.
Food/beverages we consume due to fermentation/ food microbiology?
"Yogurt, Pickles, Cheese, Alchoholic Beverages."
Why is Cellular Respiration important to your existance?
Gives us the needed energy to live from our lives
Fast Twitch:
Muscles needed for short bursts of strength (usually strenuous)
Slow Twitch:
Muscles needed for extended strength.
3 main parts of the cell cycle?
"interphase, mitosis, cytoplasmic division"
What is a karyotype?
Picture of a chromosome.
List the 4 main characteristics of all cancer cells.
"Grow and divide abnormally, cytoplasm altered, weakend adhearision, random mitosis"

What are the basic differences between the cytoplasmic division of plant and animal cells?
Plant division is more difficult and must go through cell plate formation due to its cell wall.

Helps repair old cells and grow new ones.
Why is Meiosis important to you?
Grows and rebuilds sex cells needed for reproduction.
