Biology 1406 Quiz #1

QuestionAnswer
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
3 types of Classifications Domain Eukarya Archaea
Lateral Gene Transfer organism transfers genetic information to another organism in the same generation
Taxonomic Levels of Classification Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family Genus Species
Binomial System of Nomenclature scientific name for the organism Genus/Species
Whittaker System of 5 basic Kingdoms Monera Protista Fungi Plantae Animaila
Biology study of life
Eukaryotic Cell DNA is Subdivided by internal membranes
Prokaryotic Cell DNA is not serparated from the rest of the cell
gene expression the process by which information encoded in DNA directs the synthesis of proteins
Genome the genetic material of an organism or virus
negative feedback the most common form of regulation in living systems in which the accumlation of an end product of a process SLOWS that process
Positive feedback a form of regulation in which an end product of a process speeds up that process
Domain Bacteria prokaryotes, rod shaped
Domain Archaea prokaryotes, round shaped
Domain Eukarya All eukaryotes
Kingdom Animalia multicellular eukaryotes that inject other organisms
Kingdom Fungi which absorb nutrients from outside their bodies, eukaryotic
Protists unicellular eukaryotes

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
