Monocot = flowering plant whose seeds have one embryonic leaf (cotyledon) Dicot = plant with seed with two embryonic leaves (cotyledons)

– Cell wall: surrounds/protects cell (only in plant cells) – Cell membrane: controls movement of materials into and out of the cell (active/passive transport) – Cytoplasm: watery area of movement – Mitochondria: produces/supplies energy – Chloroplasts: contain chlorophyll (capture sunlight) [only in plants] – Vacuoles: store food/water/chemicals – Nucleus: regulars.controls cell activities – Nuclear membrane:[…]
What is mitosis? Mitosis is the process of cell division. One cell becomes two cells with full chromosomal identity. Stages of mitosis: 1. Prophase 2. Metaphase 3. Anaphase 4. Telephase Cytokinesis begins in anaphase or telephase. Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm into 2 new cells.
– Higher temperatures will (usually) increase reaction rate, colder temperatures will (usually) decrease reaction rate. – Amoebas: unicellular, have a nucleus, lack cell wall – Trophic level: the higher in a food chain an organism is, the higher its trophic level is. Producers have a lower trophic level than consumers. – Accuracy vs. Precision in[…]
– DNA undergoes transcription to become RNA. RNA undergoes translation to become protein. – Ribosomes contain RNA – Proteins are large molecules with smaller amino acids in them. – The nucleus of a cell contains chromosomes. The chromosomes have DNA wrapped in proteins.
The center of an atom is a nucleus. In the nucleus, there are 2 subatomic particles: protons (positive charge) and neutrons (neutral charge). Outside of the nucleus are electrons. The energy of an electron is in shells. An atom is a single nucleus with a positive charge surrounded by a cloud of negatively charged electrons.[…]

What is the sum of (6+2i) + (−9+11i) ?
On Monday, Anna starts pouring water into a bucket at a rate of 4 cubic meters per second. Twenty seconds later, Bella starts pouring water into the same bucket at a rate of 5.5 cubic meters per second. How many seconds after Anna starts will the amount of water in the bucket equal or exceed[…]
