Biology 1406 Quiz #1
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Order of Life | Without order of an organism, there would be no life |
Evolutionary Adaptation | Organisms must change and adapt to their environment in order to survive |
Response to Environment | All living things must respond to the environment it's living in. |
Regulation | The process of regulation helps sustain the living organism's bodily functions. Part of the metabolic process by storing nutrients. |
Reproduction | Reproduce with their own kind |
Energy Processing | Metablism is the ability for an organism to make energy |
Growth and Development | Inherited information carried by genes controls the pattern of growth and development of organisms. |
DNA | chromosomes have almost all the cells genetic material |
Chromosomes | made up of DNA |
Gene | codes for a trait |
Nucleotide | 3 parts |
Phosphate | 1 part of a nucleotide |
Pentose Sugar | 1 part of a nucleotide |
Deoxyribose | 1 part of a nucleotide |
5 Carbon Sugar | bonded with 1 of 4 nitrogen bases A - Adonine T - Thymine C - Cytosine G - Guanine |
Phototropism | plats require light |
Adenine bonds with | Thymine |
Thymine bonds with | Adenine |
Cytosine bonds with | Guanine |
Guanine bonds with | Cytosine |
ATP means | Adenosine Tri Phosphate |
Tropism | orientation towards or aways from the light |
Phototropism | hormones are chemical messengers |
Auxin hormone | cell walls loosen, allowing plant to bend toward the light |
Homeostasis | body's ability to maintain an internal equilibrium regardless of external stimuli |
Kinetic energy | motion |
potential energy | stored |
chemical energy | stored in chemical bonds |
hypothalamus | body temperature. |
ATP | used on a cellular level |
ATP | basic source of energy |
Ecdysome | triggered by brain hormone in Larval stage |
Asexual Cellular | cell does not require gametes - reproductive cells |
female cells | ova o |
mitosis | cell maintence through growth and repair |
Meiosis | occurs in gonads |
Gonads | reproductive organs |
purpose of meiosis | produce eggs and sperm |
4 structures of a cell | plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, free ribosome |
3 Domains | Eukarya - each Archaea - ant Bacteria - bites |
Binomial System of Nomenclature | Genus/Species |
5 Kingdoms | Kingdom Monera Kingdom Protista Kingdom Plantae Kingdom Fungi Kingdom Animalia |
Prokaryotic | Unicellular |
Eukaryotic | Multi-cellular |
Prokaryotic | Unicellular -monera -proteist -yeast -algea |
Eukaryotic | Multicellular -Plantae -Animalia -Fungi |
Ecology | Study of organisms |
Ecosystem | where orgamisms reside |
Autotrophic | self feeders, i.e. plants |
Consumers | heterotrophic |
Heterotrophic | other feeders |
3 subatomic particles | protrons electrons neutrons |
Protons | positive charge |
Electrons | negative charge |
Nuetrons | neutral charge |
Atomic Nucleus | protons and neutrons (P+N) |
Daltons | a measure of mass for atoms |
Valence Shell | the outer most shell of an atom |
Valence Electron | electrons in the outer most shell of an atom |
Electron Shells | followed by electrons around an atom's nucleus |
Potential energy | energy that matter possesses |
isotopes | varying atomic form of an element vary on the number of neutrons and atomic weights |
radioactive isotopes | isotopes that spontaneously decays (atomic nucleus) releasing radioactive particles |
Valence (bonding capacity) | # of unpaired electrons in the valence shell |
Rules of engagement #1 | atom w/1 energy shell is stable with a total of 2 electrons |
Rules of engagement #2 | atom with more than 1 energy shell is most stable with electron in the valence shell ex. 8---octet rule |
Covalent bonds #1 | non polar covalent bond have equal sharing of electrons between atoms |
Covalent bonds #2 | polar covalent bond that have unequal sharing of electrons between atoms |
Non Polar Covalent Bond | equal sharing of electrons between atoms |
Polar Covalent Bond | un equal shring of electrons between atoms |
Ionic Bond | formed due to transfer of electrons between atoms |
Cation | + charged ion |
Anion | - charged ion |
Ion | atom that has gained or lost an electron |
Loses an electron | gains charge |
Gains an electron | loses charge |
Hydrogen Bonds | 2 weak electronegative atoms to hydrogen |
Electronegatives equal 0 or <1 | bond is non-polar covalent |
Electronegatives 1 or greater, but < 2 | bond is polar covalent |
Electronegatives 2.0 or > | bond is ionic |
