Big Idea 2

16. Fermentation: This beverage has gone through the process of fermentation because it has been deprived of oxygen

10. Cohesion: This sparkling blue water given to tortoises displays this property by sticking to the bowl.

32. Saturated Fat: This peanut butter contains saturated fat, so named for its straight carbon chain structure

14. Entropy: The chaos of the universe is ever increasing as energy is displaced. This river is a prime example of this energy chaos.

15. Enzyme: There are many enzymes at work in this snake, including special ones specific to its unique functions and form.

12. Ectothermy: This lizard can be considered ectothermic because it absorbs heat from its environment rather than creating its own heat.

13. Endothermy: This lemur is endothermic, like all mammals, because it creates its own heat and regulates itself temperature-wise.

24. Hydrophobic: This dressing is hydrophobic because it is oil based rather than water based and oils are hydrophobic.

5. Calvin Cycle: This plant is undergoing the calvin cycle, using this step as part of its creation of ATP.

29. Long- Day Plant: This tobacco is actually the opposite of a long day plant, a short day plant, which flowers when the day lengths are shorter than the critical photoperiod, as opposed to a long day plant which flowers when the day length is longer.

27. Citric Acid Cycle: This orangutan is undergoing the citric acid cycle, after completing glycolysis. This cycle uses acetyl coA.

19. Heterotroph: This lion, king of the jungle, is the ultimate heterotroph because it is the top of the food chain.

6. Carbohydrate: Carbohydrates are an essential part of this snakes diet, which it uses for energy storage.

8. Cellulose: This plant contains a large amount of cellulose, which is the form with which it stores energy.

2. Anabolic: This plant goes through anabolic reactions to build things up, using the sun's energy.

3. ATP: This zebra is currently using ATP in most of its energy requiring actions and processes, in this case bending down and eating.

22. Hypotonic: This river is hypotonic to the surrounding area because it has less solute for the amount of water than the land around it.

18. Glycolysis: This lizard is undergoing glycolysis to convert glucose to pyruvates that then will be converted and used in the Kreb's cycle.

17. Glycogen: This is the form in which energy is stored in animals, such as this snake.

23. Hydrophilic: This worms in this picture have a hydrophilic outer layer, meaning they are polar and agreeable in a water based solution.
