EOC Review

QuestionAnswer
DNA to RNA transcription
RNA to protein translation
DNA to DNA replication
proposed answer based on prior knowledge hypothesis
well tested explanation based on experimental evidence theory
environmental factors choose who survives natural selection
process that creates 2 genetically identical daughter cells mitosis
process that creates 4 genetically different daughter cells meiosis
cell organelle that makes proteins ribosomes
cell organelle that maintains homeostasis by controlling what enters and leaves cell cell membrane
solution that causes no change in cell size isotonic solution
solution that causes water to rush in and increase cell size hypotonic solution
solution that causes water to rush out and decrease cell size hypertonic solution
movement of molecules from high concentration to low needing no energy diffusion
movement of molecules from low concentration to high needing energy to happen active transport
movement of water molecules from high concentration to low osmosis
random change in DNA mutation
limiting factors that depend on the size of population density-dependent limiting factors
limiting factors that do NOT depend on the size of population density-independent limiting factors
random change in the allele frequency of a population genetic drift
structures with similar structures but different functions ; is evidence of common ancestor homologous structures
structures that no longer have function in modern species ; is evidence of common ancestor vestigial structures
structures with similar function in unrelated species analogous structures
cells that DO NOT have a nucleus prokaryotic cells
cells that DO have a nucleus and membrane bound organelles eukaryotic cells
programmed cell death ; happens to damaged or worn out cell parts apoptosis
maintaining stable internal conditions ex. sweating when hot homeostasis
geographical, temporal, behavioral, ecological, mechanical (before zygote) pre-zygotic isolation
hybrid dies or hybrid is sterile (after zygote) post-zygotic isolation
both organisms benefit mutualism
one organism benefits & the other is unaffected commensalism
one organism benefits & the other is harmed parasitism
one organism benefits & the other is hunted and killed predation
what an organism does to survive in its environment niche
where an organism lives in its habitat habitat
non-living factors ex. weather, sun, water, rocks abiotic factors
living factors ex. plants, animals, bacteria biotic factors
cell organelle that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins for delivery golgi
cell organelle that stores water, nutrients, waste vacuole
adding phosphate group to store chemical energy ADP --> ATP
removing last phosphate group to release chemical energy ATP --> ADP
building blocks are glycerol + 3 fatty acids; fats, oils, cholesterol ; has 9 calories per gram (used 2nd for energy) lipids
building blocks are monosaccharides (sugars) ; has 4 calories per gram (used 1st for energy) carbohydrates
building blocks are amino acids ; has 4 calories per gram protein
process of a cell becoming more specialized [this happens to stem cells] differentiation
cells that can differentiate into any cell in the body stem cells
proteins that can speed up chemical reactions enzyme
why replication is a "semi conservative" process half old DNA strand + half new DNA strand
cycle that involves carbon dioxide, fossil fuels, combustion carbon cycle
cycle that does NOT go through the atmosphere ; involves the weathering of rocks phosphorus cycle
cycle that involves precipitation, condensation, evaporation, transpiration water cycle
cycle that has gas that makes up 78% of Earth's atmosphere nitrogen cycle
element that is found in all organic compounds carbon
DNA --> RNA --> Protein central dogma
transcription & translation protein synthesis (2 steps)
process of converting atmospheric nitrogen into useable nitrogen by organisms in food chain (done by bacteria in the soil) nitrogen fixing
building blocks are nucleotides; never broken down for energy nucleic acids (DNA, RNA)
respiration that forms lactic acid or alcohol when oxygen is NOT present fermentation
when crossing over occurs during meiosis prophase I of meiosis
meiosis step, the chromosomes separate to opposite sides of the cell anaphase I of meiosis
meiosis step, the chromatids separate to opposite sides of the cell anaphase II of meiosis
cell division that creates 2 genetically identical diploid daughter cells mitosis
cell division that creates 4 genetically different haploid daughter cells meiosis
3 nucleotide sequence of tRNA (compliments mRNA) anticodon
3 nucleotide sequence of mRNA (compliments DNA) codon
gradual change to populations of organisms over time evolution
cycle process that creates sugar during photosynthesis using ATP and NADPH Calvin cycle
cycle process that creates ATP and NADH that flow into the electron transport chain (ETC) of cellular respiration Krebs cycle
respiration that requires oxygen aerobic cellular respiration
respiration that does NOT require oxygen anaerobic respiration (fermentation)
the first species to arrive after a disturbance (lichensm , mosses) pioneering species
the final stage of succession ; the populations in a community are stable climax community
positive human impact on environment reduce, re-use, recycle, re-forestation ; lowering carbon emission
negative human impart on environment overhunting, overfishing, habitat fragmentation , increasing carbon emission
a cross of 2 traits at the same time (16 boxes) dihybrid cross
a cross of 1 trait (4 boxes) monohybrid cross

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.
