Slide 4: a living being
Slide 5: organism
Slide 6: a white, tasteless, granular complex carbohydrate
Slide 7: starch
Slide 8: the female reproductive cell
Slide 9: egg cell
Slide 10: the smallest unit of life that can exist independently and that makes up all living things
Slide 11: cell
Slide 12: a type of cellular respiration, not requiring oxygen, in which food is broken down into carbon dioxide and alcohol, with the release of energy
Slide 13: fermentation
Slide 14: the production of energy through the conversion of complex molecules into simpler ones (breaking down)
Slide 15: catabolism
Slide 16: the part of the cell that controls all the cell’s activities
Slide 17: nucleus
Slide 18: the layer of matter that separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm; the nucleus’s skin
Slide 19: nuclear membrane
Slide 20: thin layer of matter of enclosing a cell; the cell’s skin
Slide 21: cell membrane
Slide 22: a group of atoms that are held together by covalent or ionic bonds
Slide 23: molecule
Slide 24: a metabolic process in which energy is used to make compounds and tissues from simple molecules (building up)
Slide 25: anabolism
Slide 26: the part of a cell’s nucleus that contains genetic information
Slide 27: chromatin
Slide 28: a complex natural substance that has a globular or fibrous structure, composed of amino acids
Slide 29: protein
Slide 30: a part of a cell that has a role in making protein
Slide 31: ribosome
Slide 32: the jellylike substance that surrounds a cell’s nucleus and holds the cell’s other structures
Slide 33: cytoplasm
Slide 34: a structure within a cell that performs a specific function to keep the cell alive
Slide 35: organelle
Slide 36: the process by which a cell nucleus divides during cell division to form two daughter nuclei identical to the parent nucleus
Slide 37: mitosis

Slide 42: the cell undergoing mitosis and cell division
Slide 43: parent cell
Slide 44: an organic compound of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen that is part of many foods

Slide 46: the chemical process by which green plants convert water and carbon dioxide into food and oxygen using energy absorbed from sunlight or other light
Slide 47: photosynthesis
Slide 48: an inherited characteristic
Slide 49: trait
Slide 50: a trait that will appear in an offspring if one parent contributes it
Slide 51: dominant trait
Slide 52: the study of inherited characteristics
Slide 53: genetics
Slide 54: a trait that does not appear when combined with a dominant trait, and that must be contributed by both parents to appear in the offspring
Slide 55: recessive trait
Slide 56: an organism that, when bred, always produces the same trait in its offspring
Slide 57: purebred
Slide 58: an organism that carries both the dominant and recessive versions of a particular trait
Slide 59: an organism that carries both the dominant and recessive versions of a particular trait hybrid
Slide 60: a part of the genetic molecule DNA that determines a particular trait
Slide 61: gene
