provide mobility

used to move substances outside human cells

24
Q

what is harvested energy called

A

ATP

25
Q

what happens in the process of photosynthesis

A

plants use the suns energy to convert carbon dioxide gas into sugar molecules

26
Q

what is a solvent

A

a solvent is something that can dissolved into another substance

27
Q

what is adhesion

A

it is the attraction between water molecules and other molecules

28
Q

cohesion

A

water molecules attracted too each other keeping tension tight

29
Q

osmosis

A

higher concentration moving lower concentrate

e.g the paper towel having water move throughout

30
Q

anabolic

Q

catabolic

A

complex broken into smaller compounds

chlorophyll

A

green pigment that captures the light energy that drives the reactions of photosynthesis

34
Q

Glycolysis

A

Glucose being broken down by enzymes producing energy and pyruvic acid
