Week 12 Biology Definitions

type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen.

• Aerobic respiration
• Monomers
• Hydrophobic
• Centrioles
• Pluto

type of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen.

• Anaerobic respiration
• Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Grana
• Light Reactions

a type of reproduction where an organism can reproduce and create offspring without the involvement of another organism.

• Asexual reproduction
• Adenosine Triphosphate(ATP)
• Chloroplasts:
• Monomers

method of asexual reproduction that occurs in prokaryotic cells in which a parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells

• Binary fission:
• Hypotonic
• Cell Wall
• Prokaryotic Cells

type of asexual reproduction in which an offspring cell pinches off from the parent cell.

• Budding:
• Sexual reproduction
• Spindle
• Endocytosis

disease in which cells grow out of control, usually because of mutations in genes that control the cell cycle.

• Cancer
• Centromere
• ATP synthase
• Centrioles

the process in which one cell, called the parent cell, divides to form two new cells, referred to as daughter cells.

• Cell division
• Polymers
• Light Reactions
• Organic molecules

organelle in animal cells that is located near the nucleus and arranges the mitotic spindles that pull the chromosome apart during cell division.

• Centrioles
• Proteins
• Cell membrane
• Hypotonic

region of sister chromatids where they are joined together.

• Centromere
• Dependent variable
• Concentration gradient
• Concentration gradient

an electrochemical gradient across the thylakoid membrane and the inner membrane of the mitochondrion; due to concentration differences of both positive charges and hydrogen ions.

• Chemiosmotic Gradient
• Enzymes
• Passive transport
• Zygote
