Photosynthesis equation

• Carbon dioxide + water + energy (sunlight)--> glucose + oxygen

• Oxygen + glucose + energy (sunlight)--> carbon dioxide + water

• Carbon dioxide + glucose + energy (sunlight)--> oxygen + water

• Water + energy (sunlight)--> carbon dioxide + glucose + oxygen

Function of nucleolus in building proteins

• Ribosome production-builds ribosome subunits from RNA and proteins, exit through nuclear pores to cytoplasm to form functional ribosomes

• Synthesis of DNA for cell replication

• Production of ATP for energy metabolism

• Modification of proteins after translation

Define ribosomes in prokaryotic cell

• Make proteins

• Store genetic information

• Produce energy

• Transport nutrients

Function of ribosomes in building proteins

• Protein production (rRNA and protein combine)

• Energy production in cells

• DNA replication

• Lipid synthesis

Define cell wall in prokaryotic cell

• Structure inside the cell membrane; made of cellulose

• Structure outside of cell membrane; made of peptidoglycan for many bacteria

• Structure that regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell; made of phospholipids

• Structure that provides energy to the cell; made of ATP

Functions of vacuoles in plants

• Storage of water and nutrients

• Stockpiling proteins or organic ions

• Producing energy through photosynthesis

• Regulating temperature in plant cells

What do chromoplasts do?

• Store pigments for fruits and flowers

• Produce energy through photosynthesis

• Transport nutrients within the cell

• Synthesize proteins for cellular functions

Define flagella in prokaryotic cell

• A structure for photosynthesis in prokaryotic cells

• A tail for movement in prokaryotic cells

• A protective layer in prokaryotic cells

• A site for protein synthesis in prokaryotic cells

Function of endoplasmic reticulum in building proteins

• Processes proteins, manufactures membranes, synthesis and hydrolysis of many compounds

• Transports oxygen in the blood

• Stores genetic information

• Produces energy through cellular respiration

Structure of lysosomes

• Vesicle of digestive enzymes

• Cell membrane structure

• Protein synthesis site

• Energy production unit
