| A | B |
| the 3 parts of the cell theory(1.a) | 1) all living things are made of cells 2) the cell is the basic unit of living things 3) all cells come from other living cells |
| prokaryotic cell | smaller, more primitive cells with a nucleus or other organelles except for ribosomes. Bacteria are prokaryotic. |
| eukaryotic cell | a cell with a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles; plants and animals are examples of the types of organisms made of eukaryotic cells. |
| differences between plant cells and animals cells (1.b) | plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large central vacuole |
| What is the purpose of mitosis (1.e) | part of the cell cycle in which the cell creates an identical set of chromosomes before it divides |
| What are the 3 stages of the cell cycle (1.e) | interphase, mitosis, cytokinesis |
| the levels of organization in multi-cellular organisms ( 5.a, 1.f) | cell, tissue, organ, organ system, organism |
| organelle in which the genetic information in plants and animals is stored (1c.) | nucleus |
| In cellular respiration, the organelle that frees up energy needed by the cell. (1.d) | mitochondria |
| In photosynthesis, the organelle in plants that captures the energy of sunlight that will be stored as food (1.d) | chloroplast |
| What is the name of the molecule carrying genetic information found in all living things (2.e) | DNA |
| How many copies of each gene an organism has (2.d) | two copies of each gene |
| What are different versions of a gene for the same trait called? (2.d) | alleles |
| What are the two types of alleles (2.d) | dominant and recessive |
| what's a phenotype? (2.d) | the characteristics of an organism you can see ( brown eyes, purple flower, etc.) |
| what's a genotype? (2.d) | the genetic structure of an organism (BB, bb, Bb etc.) |
| What percentage of an organism is inherited from each parent through sexual reproduction? (2.b) | 1/2; 50% |
| What's the difference between asexual and sexual reproduction? (2.a) | asexual reproduction involves one parent organisms; sexual involve two |
| What's an example of an organism that would use asexual reproduction? (2.a) | bacteria |
| What's a gene? (2.c) | Genes carry the information that determines your traits (say: trates), which are features or characteristics that are passed on to you — or inherited — from your parents. |
| What are the two products of photosynthesis? (1.d) | glucose and oxygen |
| what are the two reactants of photosynthesis? (1.d) | carbon dioxide and water |
| what are the two products of cellular respiration? | carbon dioxide and water |
| what are the two reactants of cellular respiration? (1.d) | glucose and oxygen |
| between photosynthesis and cellular respiration, which occurs in both plants and animals? ( 1.e) | cellular respiration |
| What is the purpose of the cell cycle? (1.e) | make more identical cells; repair damage to the organism |
