Week 3 EOC Review Recap

Front

What type of microscope provides high-resolution images of internal structures of cells?

Back

Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) is used to view internal structures of cells at a high resolution.

Front

What is the equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS?

Back

light + carbon dioxide + water --> glucose + oxygen

Front

Which process is NOT a function of the roots?

Back

Photosynthesis is NOT a function of the roots; roots primarily absorb water and minerals, store sugars, and anchor the plant.

Front

What is Codominance in genetics?

Back

Codominance is a genetic scenario where both alleles in a heterozygote are fully expressed, resulting in offspring with a phenotype that is neither dominant nor recessive.

Front

What is the function of the Cell Wall in plant cells?

Back

The Cell Wall provides shape, structure, and protection for the cell.

Front

What type of microscope is used for viewing the surface of specimens?

Back

Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is used to view the surface of specimens.

Front

What is the primary role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is the main function of plant roots?

Back

The main functions of plant roots are to absorb water and minerals, store sugars, and anchor the plant to the ground.

Front

What is the difference between Incomplete Dominance and Codominance?

Back

In Incomplete Dominance, the phenotype is a blend of the two alleles, while in Codominance, both alleles are fully expressed.

Front

What is the role of the mitochondria in cells?

Back

Mitochondria are the site of cellular respiration, where energy (ATP) is produced.
