NGSS.HS-LS1-4

The process of translation requires a cell to utilize —

• strands of DNA as substitutes for strands of messenger RNA.

• cytoplasm to prevent ribosomes from disintegrating.

• ribosomes as sites for the process of protein synthesis.

• chains of proteins to replicate themselves without transfer RNA.

What is happening at point Y?

• Blood vessels dilate and sweat glands release fluid on the surface

• Body hair stands due to the blood vessels being constricted

• Sweat glands release fluid that is carried away by dilated blood vessels

• Sweat glands do not release fluid and blood vessels are constricted

The cells in this leaf are making their own energy by the process of —

• photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide and sunlight at Q and R are taken in and then converted into glucose and oxygen at S and T.

• respiration, where carbon dioxide and oxygen at Q and R are taken in and then converted into thermal energy and methane gas at S and T.

• photosynthesis, where glucose and oxygen at Q and R are taken in and then converted into water vapor and thermal energy at S and T.

• respiration, where oxygen and sunlight at Q and R are taken in and then converted into carbon dioxide and glucose at S and T.

How do plant and animal cells similarly maintain homeostasis?

• Both extract energy by converting sunlight into usable energy, but each type of cell uses different organelles to do this process.

• Both extract energy, but plant cells extract energy from sunlight, while animal cells extract energy from food.

• Both form cell walls of cellulose to protect their cells.

• Both absorb carbon dioxide for cellular respiration.
