diffusion
particles go from high to low concentration

(animals) located near the nucleus, helps organize chromosomes during cell material by seperating chromosomes

making proteins

requires light energy to work
light independent
does not use light energy
lysosomes
(plants and animals) cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in a cell
hypotonic
concentraion of solutes is greater inside the cell than outside (cell expands)
elctron carrier in respiration
NADH+ and FADH^2
3 differences between plant and animal cells
1-mitosis cell plate forms (plants) 2- not centrioles (plants) 3-bigger vacuoles (plant), chloroplast (plant)
Principle of dominance
some alleles are dominant some are recessive
F2 generation tall vs. short
tall = 75% short=25%

microtubules
(plants, animals, bacteria) hollow structures made of proteins, plays a roll in mainting cell shape also helps seperate chromosomes in mitosis
what happens to the ATP when it looses energy
becomes ADP (loses a phosphate group)
principle of segregation
2 factors for segragation segragate or seperate, during formation of eggs and sperm
respiration
takes place in mitochondria (opposite of photosynthesis) lets out energy
Mitosis (PMAT)
nuclear division of all cells except sex cells
proteins

Chemical factors that determine traits
genes

spermatiogenesis
the replication of sperms-ending in 4 identical sperms that each have half the # of chromosomes the parent had (end up with 1n)

if an atom contains 11 nuetrons and protons
the atomic # is 11
frame shift mutation
addition of deletion of a base causing a shift in translation
principle of independent assortment
factors for different traits are not connected, they are distributed to reproductive cells independently
isotopes
odd # of nuetrons
Gregore Mendel concluded that traits are
inherited
nucleolus
(plants, animals) small dense region within most nuclei in which the assembly of proteins begin
What phase of mitosis do chromosomes line up in center of cell
metaphase
golgi apparatus
