What does King Philip came over for Great Spaghetti really stand for? | Kingdom-Phylum-Class-Family-Genus-Species |
Which is more general...Kingdom or Species? | Kingdom |
Which is more specific...Family or Class | Family |
Name the 5 kingdoms. | -Moneran -Protist -Fungi -Plants -Animals |
Give a decription and example of Moneran | uni/multicellular; no nucleus; cell wall; simplest kingdom; all bacteria; first living organisms on Earth; producers, consumers, and decomposers |
Give a description and example of Protist | uni/multicellular; nucleus; 3 groups (protozoans) amoeba, (algae) euglena and seaweed, (slime mold); producers, consumers, and decomposers |
Give a description and example of Fungi | uni/multicellular; all decomposers; nucleus; mushrooms, yeast, and mold; cell wall |
Give a description and example of Plants | multicellular; all producers; chloroplast; cell wall; nucleus; corn, moss, ferns, trees, flowers, fruits and vegetables |
Give a description and example of Animals | multicellular; all consumers; nucleus; most complex; sponges, worms, whales, cows, snakes, insects and people |
Which is the only Kingdom whose cells do not have nucleus | Moneran |
In which kingdom are ALL the organisms producers? | Plants |
Which Kingdom is made of organisms believed to be the 1st on Earth? | Moneran |
How are the terms "life cycle" and "metamorphosis" the same and give an example | "change" in an organism.. Example: the lift cycle of a frog or butterfly |
What is a decomposer? Give an example | Uses dead and decaying things for nutrients Example: bacteria, fungus-mushrooms, earthworms and pillbugs |
Tell me everything you know about AMOEBA! (What kingdom does it belong to? How many cells is it made of? Is it a producer, consumer or decomposer? | -Protist -Consumer -Unicellular -Has nucleus |
What is the difference between Cold-blooded and warm blooded? | -Cold-blooded-body temp same as environment(snake) -Warm-blooded - Body temp is constant (human) |
What is the difference between Invertebrate and Vertebrate | Invertebrate - no backbone Vertebrate - backbone |
What is the difference between Unicellular and Multicellular | Unicellular - Single celled (amoeba) Multicellular - many cells (dog) |
What are the 5 classes of vertebrate animals? | Fish, Amphibians, reptile, birds, mammals |
Are pillbugs Vertebrates or Invertebrates | Invertebrates |
Differentiate between producers, consumers and decomposers | Producer - makes it own food Consumer - must ingest other organisms Decomposer - uses dead and decaying organisms for nutrition |
What is the basic unit of all living organisms | Cells |
What is the smallest part of an organism that can carry out all the characteristics of living organisms | Cells |
Where do all cells come from: | Other living cells |
Explain the difference between plant and animal cell for Vacuoles | Plant - larger and fewer vacuoles Animal - smaller and more vacuoles |
Explain the difference between plant and animal cell for Cell Wall | Plant - has cell wall Animal - no cell wall |
Explain the difference between plant and animal cell for Chloroplasts | Plant - has chloroplasts Animal - no chloroplasts |
What 3 things do plant and animal cells have in common | -Perform all life processes -Basic unit of living organisms -Both have cell membrane, cytoplasm, vacuoles, mitochondria, ER, ribosomes, nucleus and nuclear membrane |
Cells can or cannot be all difference shapes | Can |
Cells can or cannot have different functions | Can |
Cells can or cannot reproduce in order to repair tissue and help an organism grow? | Can |
Where are chromosomes found | in the nucleus |
What is the function of the nucleus | Brain of the cell; directs all cell activities; controls all life processes |
What is the function of the nuclear membrane | protects nucleus; controls all things that go in and out of nucleus |
What is the function of the membrane | protects inside of cell; controls all things that go in and out of cell |
What is function of cell wall (plant only) | protects and supports cell; gives box-like shape |
What is function of cytoplasm | Holds organelles; where most activities take place |
What is function of mitochondria | powerhouse of cell; performs respiration to make energy for cell |
What is function of chloroplasts (plant only) | contain chlorophyll; where food is made |
What is function of vacuoles | storage places for food; waste and water |
What is definition of Diffusion | It is the movement of molecules from crowded to less crowded areas through a cell membrane |
What is the definition of Osmosis | It is the movement of water across a cell membrane |
What are traits and what are they passed on | Traits are characteristics and are passed on genes/chromosomes from parent to offspring |
Who studied pea plants and is called the father of genetics | Gregor Mendel |
What is heredity | Passing of traits from parent to offspring |
Define Dominant Gene | Gene whose trait always shows and can block other genes |
Define Recessive Gene | gene that is hidden when the dominant gene is present |
Define Heterozygous | Two unlike genes for the same trait (i.e. Ff) |
Define homozygous | two like genes for the same trait (i.e. FF or ff) |
Explain how 2 parents with brown eyes could have a blue eyed child. Use the terms dominant, recessive and heterozygous | Two heterozygous brown eyed parents that are both carrying the blue-eyed gene (Bb and Bb) would have a 25% chance of the recessive trait showing (bb) because there would be no dominant gene to block it |
In a pedigree chart, where are the oldest organisms | Top |
In a pedigree chart, what shape represents males | squares |
In a pedigree chart, what color represents an organism with the trait you're trying to track? | Black (filled in) |
What is selective breeding? | When humans choose specific organisms to mate based on the desired characteristics of those organisms |
