shape. All enzymes have a unique shape.
17.What is meant by the “lock and key” model?
Shape of enzyme and substrate “fit” each
other

1. List the levels of organization in a
multicellular organism from simplest to most
complex. Cell, tissue, organ, organ system.
2. What invention made the discovery of cells
possible? Microscope
3. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus while
eukaryotic cells enclose their DNA in a
nucleus
Chapter 7 Cell Structure and Function
4. What is the relationship between the nucleus
and the cytoplasm? The nucleus is an
organelle surrounded by the cytoplasm.
5. What is the function of the cell membrane?
Serves as cells boundary from its
environment
6. What is the function of the Golgi body?
Modifies, sort and packages proteins and
other materials for storage or release from
cell.
Chapter 7 Cell Structure and Function
7. What is the function of the endoplasmic
reticulum? Protein synthesis
8. What is the function of the mitochondria?
Power house—produce ATP
9. What organelle is found in plants but not
animals? Chloroplast
10.Which two organelles are involved in energy
conversion? Chloroplast and mitochondria
Chapter 7 Cell Structure and Function
11. Describe what happens during diffusion as
equilibrium is reached? Molecules continue
to move across the membrane in both
directions at equal rates.
12.What is osmosis? Diffusion of water
a. Why does an animal cell burst if placed in
fresh water? Water moves into cell due to
osmosis.
Chapter 8 Photosynthesis
1. Draw and label an ATP molecule.
2. What is the difference between ATP and ADP?
ATP has 3 phosphates, while ADP has 2
phosphates
Chapter 8 Photosynthesis
3. Define autotroph. Organism that makes its
own food
4. Define heterotroph. Organism that must
obtain energy from external sources
5. Write the overall equation for
photosynthesis.
Light
6 CO2 + 6 H2O
C6H12O6 + 6 O2
6. What gas is given off? Oxygen
7. The energy needed to power photosynthesis
comes from the sun.

produced.
10.Draw a graph that represents
the effect of temperature on
the rate of photosynthesis.

respiration.
C6H12O6 + 6 O2

3. Cellular respiration releases the energy in
food molecules.
4. Cellular respiration is called aerobic because
it requires oxygen.
Chapter 9 Cellular Respiration
5. How do animals get the energy they need?
By breaking down food molecules gradually
and capturing their chemical energy
6. In what way are photosynthesis and cellular
respiration opposite? Photosynthesis
removes CO2 from the atmosphere, and
cellular respiration puts it back.
7. Glycolysis starts with what molecule?
Glucose

11.Define crossing-over. Homologous
chromosomes pair up and exchange DNA
segments during meiosis I
