125. Biological Process

Chemosynthesis- A process by which some organisms, I,e bacteria use chemical energy to produce
carbohydrates

CHEMICAL ENERGY + BACTERIA = CARBOHYDRATES

126. Genotype VS Phenotype

Phenotype – Observable characteristics

Genotype- Gene alleles, Genetic makeup

127- PLASMID DNA

128- TRANSPIRATION –

1. Water absorbs by root, 2. Water travels up through plant, 3. Water vapor lost from leaf pores in
transpiration

Phloem- food Xylem- water


130.

Osmosis- movement of water

Solute- concentration (solid)

Solvent- water

132. Asexual VS Sexual Reproduction

Sexual Reproduction Asexual Reproduction


Definition -Involves sex cells and -Does not involve sex cells and
fertilization fertilization
-Only one parent plant
Advantages/ Disadvantages -Offspring are not genetically -Offspring have no variation
identical to one another
-Offspring are genetically
-There is variation in the indentical to one another
offspring
