increases




negative feedback Correct answer-a mechanism of response in which a stimulus initiates
reactions that reduce the stimulus




positive feedback Correct answer-a physiological control mechanism in which a change in
a variable triggers mechanisms that amplify the change




inductive reasoning Correct answer-reasoning based on observed patterns




polymer Correct answer-large compound formed from combinations of many monomers




hydrolysis Correct answer-a chemical process in which a compound is broken down and
changed into other compounds by taking up the elements of water




enzyme Correct answer-protein that acts as a biological catalyst




phospholipids Correct answer-a molecule that is a constituent of the inner bilayer of
biological membranes, having a polar, hydrophilic head and a nonpolar, hydrophobic tail

cellular respiration Correct answer-process that releases energy by breaking down

electrochemical gradient and the ATP synthase enzyme.




fermentation Correct answer-the process by which cells break down molecules to release
energy without using oxygen




gametes Correct answer-reproductive cells, have only half the number of chromosomes

codons Correct answer-a three-nucleotide sequence of DNA or mRNA that specifies a
particular amino acid or termination signal; the basic unit of the genetic code.




RNA splicing Correct answer-process by which the introns are removed from RNA
transcripts and the remaining exons are joined together




mutations Correct answer-random errors in gene replication that lead to a change in the
sequence of nucleotides; the source of all genetic diversity




repetitive DNA Correct answer-nucleotide sequences, usually noncoding, that are
present in many copies in a eukaryotic genome.




transposons Correct answer-small mobile DNA segments




homeobox Correct answer-one of various similar homeotic genes that are involved in
bodily segmentation during embryonic development
