Answer:
They are Polymers of 20 molecules called Amino Acids. Enzymes are a type of protein, which catalyze different reactions or processes. Largest Biological Molecule
Question 2: Saturated fat
Answer:
Clogs arteries. No double bonds in their hydrocarbon tail. Solid at room temperature.
Question 3: Prokaryotic Cells
Answer:
Lack defined nucleus and do not contain membrane- bound organelles.
Question 4: Autotrophs
Answer:
is an organism that can feed itself i.e. produces its own food.
Question 5: Lycopods
Answer:
first plants that formed true leaves and roots.
Question 6: Binary Fission
Answer:
In this process, the chromosome binds to the cell membrane, where it replicates. The as the cell grows, it pinches in two, producing two identical cells.
Question 7: Omnivores
Answer:
Eat meat and plants
Question 8: Movement of a substance from High to Low?
Answer:
Active transport is the movement of molecules against their concentration gradient, such as when moving from low to high concentration.
Question 9: Virus
Answer:
Viruses can be composed of either DNA or RNA, but not both. If they are composed of RNA, they are called a retrovirus. Viruses are typically much smaller than bacteria Viruses are considered acellular because they do not have organelles or cytoplasm. All viruses are parasitic, as they depend on a host source to be able to reproduce
Question 10: Cytokinesis is
Answer:
The division of cytoplasm is known as cytokinesis. This stage begins when the mitosis is near completion and results in the formation of two daughter cells.
