Q

It basically takes the products of glycolysis and utilizes them to produce a little ATP (and NAD—which is needed for glycolysis to proceed)

Q

Photosynthesis:
CO2+ H2O + solar energy ——> carbohydrate + O2 (glucose)

A

The process involves the absorption of light, splitting of water molecules to release oxygen, and the synthesis of carbohydrates in the form of glucose.

Q

carbohydrate + O2
——-> CO2 + H2O + ATP

Q

Plants, algae (Eukaryotes), cyanobacteria (colorful bacteria from the domain Bacteria)

What do they have in common? They make light energy absorbing pigments

The pigments allow the conversion of solar energy into chemical energy (carbohydrates).

15
Q

is how cell reproduce and multicellular organisms grow and develop!

16
Q

Prokaryotes reproduce in a similar fashion called

A

binary fission

16
Q

We have___pairs of chromosomes

16
Q

Each of the different types of chromosome has a unique set of genes—But each specific pair has the same set of genes in the same location

17
Q

The pairs are called

A

homologus pairs

18
Q

DNA and histone proteins are known generally as _____

The fully condensed structure is called a _____

A

chromatin
chromosome

19
Q

Events of interphase

A

Growth
Biosynthesis

20
Q

The S in S-phase stands for

A

synthesis of DNA

21
Q

Sorted, duplicated chromosomes-

22
The division of the chromosomes occurs in the steps of
mitosis
23
Mitosis is arbitrarily divided into 4 distinct stages
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
24
focuses on separation of daughter chromosomes.
mitosis
25
The final step in cell reproduction is complete separation of cytoplasm/daughter cells.
cytokinesis
26
only cells which are destined to divide remain in, or enter the cell cycle.
cell cycle control
27
Some cells can re-enter the cell cycle and prepare to divide again. Other cells cannot…If they have changed into fully specialized cells, they cannot revert to actively dividing cells. This process of specializing is sometimes called
terminal differentiation
28
Regulation of the cell cycle is known as the It consists of a number of checks on the health and readiness for cell division
cell cycle control system
29
Scientists have identified 3 places in the cell cycle where important checks are made and where a cell may pause its progression.
G1 checkpoint G2 checkpoint M checkpoint
30
If a cell cannot fix the problem that initiated the pause in the cell cycle, it will activate a specific kind of cell death known as is also known as programmed cell death.
apoptosis
31
has the ability to pause a cell for repair OR push a damaged cell to die—in a tidy fashion that doesn’t hurt neighboring cells.
P53 protein
