Study Notes
Cellular Biology
- The main function of the mitochondria in a cell is to generate energy for the cell through a process called cellular respiration.
Plant Biology
- The process by which water moves through a plant, from the roots to the leaves, and is then released into the air as water vapor is called transpiration.
Cell Membrane
- The part of a cell membrane responsible for allowing certain molecules to pass through while keeping others out is the semi-permeable membrane.
Genetics
- The process by which an organism's genetic information is passed from one generation to the next is called heredity.
Biology Basics
- The scientific term for the 'building blocks of life' is cells.
