1. Passive transport: Nutrients exchange occurs without the need for cellular energy.
2. Exocytosis: Process used by the cell to secrete material outside the plasma membrane.
3. Homeostasis: Process by which organisms maintain a relatively stable internal environment.
4. Qualities measures: Water can have a cold temperature.
5. Elephantine: Family gene the elephant goes in.
6. Antibiotics: Treat bacteria.
7. Liver damage effect: It would affect urine.
8. Connective tissue: The most abundant tissue in the body.
9. Phagocytosis: Uptake of food through the cellular membrane creating a food vacuole.
10. Broad needles: Dominant trait over the thin needle trait in pine trees.
11. Isotonic solution: Must be injected into tissues to prevent cells from shrinking or swelling.
12. Carbohydrates: Macromolecule that provides immediate energy for metabolism.
13. Enzyme action: Lowers the activation energy to increase the rate of a biological reaction.
14. Surface to volume ratio: Cells require a large ratio for nutrient and gas exchange.
15. Epithelial tissue: Covers the outside of the body.
16. Prokaryotic: Cell means before nucleus.
17. Lipids: Macromolecule that provides a lot of energy besides carbohydrates.
18. Immune system: Involves immediate as well as slower response specifically to infecting agents.
19. Prokaryotic cell: A cell that does not contain membrane bound organelles or a defined nucleus.
20. Eukaryotic cell: A cell that contains a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
21. Metabolism: Sum of all chemical reactions in an organism.
22. Photosynthesis end product: Oxygen.
23. Telophase: Cytokinesis pinches into two cells to split into two cells following this phase.
24. Dominant allele: Represented by a capitalized letter in a Punnet square.
25. Transcription: DNA for protein synthesis.
26. Chloroplasts: Where photosynthesis occurs.
27. Hypertonic: Term for when a cell shrinks (lower concentration).
28. Uracil: Not a nitrogenous base found in DNA.
29. Osmosis: Diffusion of water through a permeable membrane.
30. Cytosine: In DNA, binds with guanine.
31. Muscular tissue: Allows movement in the body.
32. Meiosis: Process by which gametes are produced.
