WHAT IS THE NITROGEN CYCLE

• The nitrogen cycle is when nitrogen is converted into different chemical forms.
• Nitrogen is essential component to animo acids they are the building blocks of protein and nucleotides are the building block of DNA.

Homeostasis through active and passive transport

• Homeostasis is the balance in a cell.
• It maintains balance by the equilibrium .
• Equilibrium is when opposing forces are balanced.

PASSIVE TRANSPORT

• Passive is anything that passes in and out the cell and no energy required.
• Passive has 3 other processes : osmosis, facilitated diffusion, and diffusion.

ACTIVE TRANSPORT

• Active is when energy is required for a substance to move across the membrane.
• Homeostasis regulates the movement of molecules across the membrane.

SEXUAL AND ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION

• Sexual reproduction is when both female and male sex cells contribute to chromosomes of the offspring's genes.
• Asexual is when a cell and it's nucleus is divided into two separate cells.

MICROMOLECULES

• Are bigger molecules made up by smaller molecules.
• There are four different type of molecules that make up Macromolecules witch are lipids, carbohydrates, protein, & Nucleic acids.
• How it relates to our plant is that without macromolecules it wouldn't be able to function, the way it function is by helping it create its food/protein.

ORGANELLES IN THE FUNCTION

• Cell organs are called organelles
• Each cell has multiple organelles so that the cell can function.
• All cells have a purpose and if they don't then they are stem cells

BLUEPRINT

MATH COMPONET

• We found the volume of the containers used to grow the plants.
