| | Term | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| |
ATP | molecule that stores the useable energy created during cellular respiration |
| |
carbohydrate | examples of this organic molecule include glucose, glycogen and starch |
| |
cytoplasm | the region of a cell outside of the nucleus but within the cell membrane |
| |
atom | particle made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons |
| |
hemoglobin | protein that transports oxygen on red blood cells |
| |
homeostasis | processes by which organisms maintain their internal stability |
| |
capillary | smallest of the blood vessels which allows gas exchange to occur across its wall |
| |
active transport | ions or very large particles use this process which requires energy to cross the cell membrane |
| |
compound | the chemical combination of 2 or more elements in specific amounts |
| |
metabolism | all of the chemical reactions that build or break down materials within an organism |
