Question
Answer
How long has humans been around in a "24 hour" history?   less than 4 seconds  
🗑
Fill in the blank: Accumulation of (blank) from photosynthetic (blank)   atmospheric O2, cyanobacteria  
🗑
When was the mass extinction?   between the precambrian era and the paleozoic era  
🗑
What experiment produced amino acids, sugars, and nucleotide bases in a tube?   Miller-Urey 1953 experiment  
🗑
What was the problem with Miller-Urey experiment?   ammonia and methane wouldn't be in early atmosphere because intense UV breaks them down.  
🗑
Lerman   Proposed Bubble Model: suppose that reactions took place within bubbles to protect ammonia and methane from UV. (Microspheres)  
🗑
True or false: The first genetic material and enzymes may both have been DNA   FALSE. They were RNA  
🗑
Which is more diverse: prokaryotes or eukaryotes   prokaryotes  
🗑
How many ways can animals and prokaryotes do metabolism?   animals have 1 way; prokaryotes have at least 20 ways  
🗑
The first cells were most likely...   chemoautotrophs  
🗑
What is the energy source and carbon source of photoautotroph   sunlight and CO2  
🗑
What is the energy source and carbon source of chemoautotroph   inorganic chemicals and CO2  
🗑
What is the energy source and carbon source of photoheterotroph   sunlight and organic compounds  
🗑
What is the energy source and carbon source of chemoheterotroph   organic compounds and organic compounds  
🗑
What are the domains of prokaryotes   archaea and bacteria  
🗑
Differences between bacteria and archaea: RNA polymerase   Bacteria: one kind simple and small; Archaea: several kinds; complex and similar to eukaryotic  
🗑
Differences between bacteria and archaea: Introns (noncoding parts of genes)   Bacteria: absent. Archaea: present in some genes  
🗑
Differences between bacteria and archaea: membrane lipids   Bacteria: carbon chains unbranched; Archaea: some carbon chains branched  
🗑
where do archaea live?   in extreme environments: salt lakes, acidic hot springs, animal digestive systems  
🗑
What did prokaryotes create on Earth?   atmosphere and soil  
🗑
Nitrogen fixation:   makes nitrogen available  
🗑
Are prokaryotes decomposers?   yes, we use them in sewage treatment  
🗑
How did the eukaryotic cell originated?   probably as a community of prokaryotes via endosymbiosis  
🗑
Evidence for endosymbiosis   mitochondria and chloroplasts are surrounded by two membranes, have circular DNA, have prokaryote-like ribosomes, divide by binary fission  
🗑
What are the 4 kingdom of Eukarya   Animalia, plantae, fungi, protista  
🗑
Which kingdom of eukarya is well defined evolutionary groups and mostly multicellular   animalia, plantae, fungi  
🗑
What kingdom of eukarya is very diverse and unicellular   protista  
🗑
Which is the most diverse of the eukaryotic kingdom?   protists  
🗑
Protozoa   protists that ingest their food  
🗑
Zoomastigotes   ancestor of all animals was member of this group  
🗑
algae   photosynthetic protists  
🗑
seaweeds   multicellular marine algae  
🗑
Green algae   ancestor of true plants  
🗑
cellular slime molds   the simplest model system for cellular differentiation  
🗑
Green algae   ancestor of true plants; microscopic and unicellular  
🗑
brown algae   contain the largest and most photosynthetically productive living thing; multicellular and marine  
🗑
What could multicellular life evolved from?   from colonial protists  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
