Q

What waste is produced during respiration?

A

Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

17
Q

What evidence did you observe from our respiration activity?

A

The balloon inflated and there were bubbles in the tube.

18
Q

What is the function of the cell membrane

A

To let things that won’t hurt the cell in and keep everything else out.

19
Q

What substance was able to pass through the membrane? How do you know?

A

The Iodine was able to pass through. We knew because the starch in both experiments turned purple.

20
Q

What substance was not able to pass through the membrane? How do you know?

A

The starch was not able to pass through. We knew because the starch in both experiments turned purple.

21
Q

Were the carbon pieces or powder more efficient at absorbing the blue dye?

A

The powder was more efficient because it had more surface area that the pieces.

22
Q

Why are small cells more efficient than large cells at absorbing oxygen and nutrients

A

more surface area.

23
Q

What are some of the common structures in a cell

A

nucleus and cell membrane

24
Q

Why is the nucleus an important part of most cells?

A

It has the information to drive a cell.

25
Q

What type of organism doesn’t contain a nucleus?

A

Bacteria

26
Q

What do mitochondria use to produce energy for a cell?

A

Oxygen and nutrients.

27
Q

WHy do plant cells have a cell wall in addition to a cell membrane?

A

To keep the cells in order and to make them strong enough to stand straight up.

28
Q

What are the six kingdoms of life?

A

animal, plant, fungi, bacteria, protist, and archaea

29
Q

Why are viruses NOT a kingdom of life?

A

they are not alive.

30
Q

List two ways bacteria are helpful.

A

They help produce food and decompose things.
