When a farmer picks the best crops or animals to breed in order to get offspring with the wanted characteristics | Artificial Selection |
When one species evolves or changes into more than one species | Speciation |
When a physical barrier separates two organisms and they eventually evolve into two species (one type of speciation) | Geographic Isolation |
When two organisms are separated due to the time the organism mates, which eventually will result in the evolution of two species (one type of speciation) | Reproductive Isolation |
Two types of speciation | Reproductive and Geographic Isolation |
Compares the embryos of two organisms to see how genetically similar they are | Embryology |
Compares the structure of organisms to compare the similiarities | Anatomy |
Compares the chemical makeup of two organsims to see similarities | Biochemistry |
Same structure, different function | Homologous Structure |
same function, different structure | Analogous Structure |
Structure inherited from the parents of the offspring, but often unused | Vestigial Structure |
Type of structure that is seen when comparing a bird wing and a bee wing | Analogous structure |
Type of structure that is seen when comparing a whale fin to a human arm | Homologous Structure |
Type of structure defined by the human appendix, a hipbone on a snake, or eyes on a blind mole rat | Vestigial Structure |
When examining a fossil record, where is the oldest fossil | the bottom of the sample |
List the levels of classification from BROAD to SPECIFIC | Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species |
In the levels of classification, what is the level that comes right after class | Order |
In the levels of classification, which to levels are used in binomial nomenclatures? | Genus and Species |
In the levels of classification, what are the two levels that are used in the scientific name? | Genus and species |
In a scientific name, which part come first? | Genus |
In the scientific name, what must be done to the genus part? | First, capitalized, underline or italized. It can also be abbreviated to one letter. |
When writing the species portion of the scientific name, what do you need to remember? | Second word, lower case. |
If two organisms have the same order, what other levels are classification are the same? | Everything before it (Class, Phylum, Kingdom |
A type of cell that does NOT contain a true nucleus | Prokaryotic Cell |
All the kingdoms that have prokaryotic cells | Eubacteria and Archaebacteria |
Type of cell that has a true nucleus and organelles | Eukaryotic |
All the kingdoms that are eukaryotic | Everything but bacteria ( Fungus, Protist, Plants, Animals) |
Name of an organims that has the ability to produce its own food | Autotroph |
Type of organism that can not make its own food, it must comsume food for nutrients | Heterotroph |
All the kingdoms that can be heterotrophic | Archaebacteria, Eubacteria, Fungus, Protist, Animals |
How many words are there in binomial nomenclature? | Two |
What is the first word in the scientific name? | Genus |
What is the second part to the scientific name? | Species |
What is the Genus name of an orgnaism whoes scientific name is Meleca hornis | Meleca |
Two main parts of most viruses | Core and capsid |
Part of a virus that is usually made of protein | Capsid |
Is a virus living or nonliving? | Nonliving, it must have a host to replicate |
What do viruses lack that make them nonliving? | They cannot reproduce on their own, they must have a host |
a cell which the virus uses to replicate | host cell |
What is the first two steps of both the lytic and lysogentic cycles of viruses | attach and inject nucleic acid |
injection of a weakend form of a virus that causes your body to produce antibodies to form immunity | vaccination |
Medications that can be used to treat a bacterial infection | antibiotics |
Variable in an experimant that the experimentor has control over | independent |
Variable that the experimentor is looking for, the result of the experiment | Dependent |
Name of organisms that break down dead organic matter | Decomposer |
Purpose of bacteria living on the roots of plants to take nitrogen from the atmosphere and change it into a form that the plant can absorb | Nitrogen Fixation |
Kingdom of bacteria that can live in exterme environments | Archaebacteria |
Kingdom of bacteria that live in common environments | Eubacteria |
Four advantages of bacteria ( How are they helpful?) | Decomposers, Food production, Medicine production, and Nitrogen Fixation |
Living environment of most protist | Moist or watery |
Type of protist that uses a pseudopod to move ( a pseudopod is a false foot) | Ameoba |
Type of protist that uses cilia to move | Paramecium |
Long, whip-like appendage on some organisms that help them move | Flagella |
Short, hair-like projections used by some organisms to move | Cilia or pillus |
Type of protist that uses a flagella to move | Euglena/algae |
List some examples of Fungus | Mushrooms, puffball, atheletes foot, yeast |
How do fungus get their food? | extracellular digestion: Heterotrophs that uses enzymes to breakdown the food and then absorb it |
I am going to study for my test | YES, I love to impress everyone with my vast knowledge of Biology. |
