hypothesis, make a prediction, experiment, analyze data, conclusion
a broad, comprehensive, and well substantiated explanation acquired through the
scientific method✔✔Theory
a proposed explanation for an observation before the experiment✔✔hypothesis
an educated guess about what will happen in an experiment✔✔Prediction
the studying/ watching of something in an experiment to learn more about
it✔✔Observation
a factor or condition of an experiment that is changed or manipulated✔✔Variable

outcome✔✔independent variable
a factor or condition that is affected based on the independent variable✔✔dependent
variable
a factor or condition that lacks the specific factor being tested✔✔controlled variable
What are the properties of a living organism?✔✔Order, Regulation, Growth and
Development, Energy Processing, Response to environment, reproduction, evolution
a substance that can not be broken down into other substances by chemical
means✔✔Element
a subatomic particle with a single unit of positive charge that is found inside the
nucleus of an atom✔✔Proton
A subatomic particulate with a single unit of negative charge that is found
outside/moving around the nucleus✔✔Electron
a neutrally charged particle found in the nucleus✔✔Neutron
, variants of a particular element that differ in number of neutrons but have the same
amount of protons and electrons✔✔Isotopes
an atom that has gained or lost on or more electrons and becomes a charged
atom✔✔Ion

nucleotides (blueprint for cell) (DNA and RNA)✔✔nucleic acids
A chemical bond that involves sharing one or more pairs of electrons between atoms
in a molecule✔✔Covalent Bond
Attraction between a slightly positive hydrogen atom and a slightly negative
atom.✔✔Hydrogen Bond
A chemical bond resulting from the attraction between oppositely charged
ions.✔✔ionic bond
Amino Acids✔✔Macromolecule: Protein (enzymes)
Fatty Acid/glycerol✔✔Macromolecule: Lipids
Monosaccharides✔✔Macromolecule: Carbohydrates (sugars)

a chemical compound that donates H+ ions to solutions✔✔Acids
a compound that accepts H+ ions and can remove them from a solution✔✔Bases
What is Organic chemicals based around✔✔Carbon
the physical process by which a protein chain is translated to 3D structure in a
folding formation and the protein becomes biologically functional✔✔protein folding
function of the nucleus✔✔DNA storage
function of the nucleolus✔✔Creates ribosomes aside the nucleus
