Intro To Bio/Review

Question 1

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Answer 1

6CO2 + 6H2O ——> C6H12O6 + 6O2

Question 2

What is the equation for cellular respiration?

Answer 2

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ——> 6CO2 + 6H2O

Question 3

Which types of organisms are prokaryotes?

Answer 3

Bacteria and Archaea

Question 4

Which types of organisms are Eukaryotes?

Answer 4

Animals, plants, fungi, and protists

Question 5

What is the difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

Answer 5

Prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus or membrane bound organelles, as well as their dna is not associated with proteins.

Question 6

What are the three parts of the cell theory?

Answer 6

All living things are composed of cells
Cells are the basic unit of life
All new cells come from pre-existing cells

Question 7

What are cell membranes made up of? How permeable are they?

Answer 7

Cell membranes are made up of phospholipid belayers that have water attracting heads and 2 water repelling tails. They are selectively permeable.

Question 8

What does hydrophilic and hydrophobic mean? Are they the same thing?

Answer 8

No they are not the same. Hydrophilic means water loving, while hydrophobic means water repelling.

Guess the organelle: made of microtubules. Separates chromosomes during mitosis

Answer 15

Centrioles

Question 16

Guess the organelle: is a phospholipid bilateral that determines which substances can enter and exit the cell

Answer 16

Cell membrane

Question 17

Guess the organelle: contains the genetic information and controls the activities of the cell

Guess the organelle: flattened sacs of phospholipids in a chloroplast

Answer 25

Thylakoid

Question 26

Guess the organelle: the fluid in the chloroplast

Answer 26

Question 29

What else is needed in photosynthesis?

Answer 29

Light energy (sunlight)

Question 30

What else is made as a result of cellular respiration?

Answer 30

ATP (energy)

Question 31

What is sexual reproduction?

Answer 31

The production of offspring from the fusion of two gametes

Question 32

What is asexual reproduction?

Answer 32

The production of offspring involving the genetic material of only one parent

Question 33

Why are offsprings from sexual reproduction not identical to either parent?

Answer 33

The offsprings genetic makeup is different because it inherits a combination of genetic material from each parent

Question 34

True or False: the offspring from asexual reproduction is the same as the parent organism.

Answer 34

True
