Energy, Cell Cycle, DNA, Protein Synthesis

Front

the process where organisms convert glucose (chemical energy) and oxygen into ATP (chemical energy) and release carbon dioxide and water as waste

Back

Cellular respiration

Front

the movement of molecules across the cell membrane

Back

Cellular transport

Front

a protein that catalyzes (speeds up) a reaction without being changed by it

Back

Enzyme

Front

regulation of an organism’s internal environment in order to maintain conditions suitable for survival

Back

Homeostasis

Front

energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change form

Back

Law of conservation of energy

Front

matter is not created or destroyed, only rearranged

Back

Law of conservation of mass

Front

the process by which light energy is used to make sugars (chemical energy) and produce oxygen from carbon dioxide and water

Back

Photosynthesis

Front

a disease characterized by uncontrolled cell division, caused by a failure to regulate cell cycle mechanisms and checkpoints

Back

Cancer

Front

the sequence of events that result in cell growth and ultimately the division into two daughter cells

Back

Cell cycle

Front

deoxyribonucleic acid, which is self-replicating and contains the code to make all proteins needed by an organism

Back

DNA
