Front

Define Mitosis.

Back

A process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, to drive the photosynthesis process.

Front

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Back

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy -> C6H12O6 + 6O2.

Front

What is the difference between transcription and translation?

Back

Transcription is the process of copying DNA to RNA, while translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from RNA.

Front

What is the significance of the cell cycle?

Back

The cell cycle is crucial for growth, development, and repair in organisms, ensuring proper cell division.
