Definition
Passive transport
Term
45.I can predict the effect of a hypertonic solution on cells and cell size.
Definition
Explodes
Term
46. I  can predict the effect of a hypotonic solution on cells and cell size.
Definition
Shrinks
Term
47. I can predict the effect of an isotonic solution on cells and cell size.
Definition
Stays the same
Term
48. I can explain diffusion
Definition
Through the membrane
Term
49. I can expain active transport
Definition
ATP to use
Term
51. I can explain where the chemical energy in sugar ultimately comes from.
Definition
Sunlight
Term
63. I can explain what type of light produces the fastest rate of photosynthesis.
Definition
Red or blue
Term
61. I can explain what happens to the levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide when photosynthesis is occurring.
Definition
CO2 goes down when photosythesis occurs
Term
60. I can identify the parts of plants where photosynthesis occurs.
Definition
Thylakoids
Term
59. I can identify the primary function of the Calvin Cycle.
Definition
To make sugar and oxygen
Term
58.  I can identify the reactants of the Calvin Cycle.
Definition
carbon dioxide
atp
 nadph
Term
56. I can explain the processes associated with Photosystem I and Photosystem II.
Definition

PI produces NADPH, an energy carrier needed in the Light Independent Reaction. While P II produces Oxygen and an electron used in P II.

 

P1: NADPH

p2: ATP

Term
55. I can explain where the oxygen gas released from photosynthesis comes from.
Definition
H20
Term
54. I can write out the chemical equation for photosynthesis.
Definition
6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy ® C6H12O6 + 6O2
Term
53. I can explain how different colored light affects the rate of photosynthesis.
Definition
Reflects
Term
52. I can explain what the results of photosynthesis are.
Definition
oxygen and sugar
Term
1.)I can define hypothesis and explain its major function in the scientific method.
Definition
A hypothesis is a guess to explain a problem observed
Term
2.)I can define control group.
Definition
The group that doesn't get the elements and stays unchanged
Term
3.)I can explain what a control group is used for in an experiment.
Definition
It is used to compare
Term
4.)I can identify extraneous variables in an experiment.
Definition

Extra variables that could effect the outcome of an experiment

Term
13. I can use the number of valence electrons an atom has to predict the maximum number of bonds that atom can form.
Definition
Well, the first ring has 2 so if the atom had 4 it would be able to have 6 bonds.
Term
5.)I can explain how the control group differs from the experimental group(s) in an experiment.
Definition
Experimental has test substances placed on them, unlike the control group.
Term
12.)12. I can explain what happens to the charge of an atom when it gains or loses an electron.
Definition
It becomes an ion
Term
14.)14. I can identify the reactants in a chemical equation.
Definition

REACTANTS + REACTANTS ----> PRODUCTS

Term
15.)15. I can explain how hydrogen bonding occurs.
Definition
Slightly positive bonded to slightly negative
Term
16.)16. I can define organic compound.
Definition
ANy compound dealing with Carbon
Term
17.)I can identify the major function of carbohydrates.
Definition
Storage of energy
Term
18.)
I can identify the molecules needed to construct a DNA molecule.
Definition
Nitrogenous base, 5carbon sugar, and phosphate group
Term
20.)  I can identify the building blocks of proteins.
Definition
amino acids
Term
21.) I can explain what happens to proteins when the sequence of their amino acids is changed.
Definition
A different protein is formed
Term
6.) I can identify the experimental and dependent variable in experiment.
Definition
Experimental- a variable whose values are independent of changes in the values of other variables
Dependent variable - The thing effected by what you did to change it, the experimental set up pretty much.
Term
7.I can interperet a graph
Definition
YES
Term
8. I can explain how to properly use the compound light microscope
Definition
Yes
Term
9.)I can explain how to calculate total magnification
Definition
Lens x eyepeice
Term
10.) I can explain the relationship between magnification and the size of an image.
Definition
Bigger magnification = bigger size
Term
11.) I can explain the relationship between magnification and the area of the field of view
Definition
Bigger magnification = smaller area of view
Term
I can identify the monomers and polymers of all four types of organic molecules
Definition
Carbohydrate: Monosaccharide --->Polysacharide

Lipid: Lipids (made of 3 fatty acids) ---> Triglyceride

Nucleic acids: Nucleotides ---> Nucleic acids

Proteins: Amino acid ----> Proteins
Term
23.) I can explain how monomers are joined to form polymers
Definition
Polymerization
Term
24.) I can define dehydration synthesis
Definition
The opposite of polymerization, also called hydrolysis
Term

25.) I can differentiate a saturated fatty acid from an unsaturated fatty acid by looking at a diagram

 

 

Definition

Saturated fatty acids do not contain any double bonds The term "saturated" refers to hydrogen, in that all carbons (apart from the carboxylic acid [-COOH] group) contain as many hydrogens as possible. Unsaturated - whose carbon chain possesses one or more double or triple bonds and hence can incorporate additional hydrogen atoms.
