Material for 12/4 Bio Final
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Units of the Metric System (Length, width, height) | Kilometer (1km=1000m), meter, centimeter, millimeter, micrometer(1000 micro meters=1mm). |
| Units of the Metric System (Mass) | Metric ton (1t=1000kg, kilogram, gram, milligram, microgram (1000 micro grams=1mg). |
| Units of the Metric System (Volume) | liter, milliliter (1000ml=1L), cubic centimeter, microliter (1000 micro liters=1ml). |
| Scientific Method | Observation Question Hypothesis Prediction Experiment Conclusion. |
| Sample Size | The number of samples you can use in an experiment. |
| Totipotency | The ability of cells to undergo cell division and differentiate to regenerate. |
| Micropropagation | A technique used to asexually generate new plants by culturing plant cells and tissue in vitro. |
| Micropropagation Steps | 1. Tissue prep 2. Transfer to sterile media 3. Multiplication (shoot and root) 4. Transfer to soil 5. Acclamation |
| Plant Protective Structures | Raphides and Druce Crystals |
| Scientific Writing | Title Abstract Introduction Materials and Methods Results Discussion References |
| Shapes and Arrangements of Bacteria | Cocci(balls grouped together), Baccilli (chain-like pills), Spirilli (Spiral), Vibrios (pear-like), Filamento (stick-like). |
| Independent Variable | The factor that is changed or manipulated by the experiment. |
| Dependent Variable | The factor that is observed/measured. |
| Controlled Variable | Remains constant for all groups. |
| Continuous Variable | Uses a logical set of numbers. |
| Discrete Variable | Uses an unordered set of numbers. |
| Gametic Cell vs. Somatic Cell | Gamete-reproductive cell that has half the copies for each gene. Somatic Cell-Form the body, organs of the organism. |
| 4 Phases of Mitosis | Prophase-condensing of chromosomes. Metaphase-sister chromatids line up. Anaphase-sister chromatids divide. Telophase-chromosomes are at poles and expanding. |
| Phases of Meiosis | Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I, Telophase I. (sister chromatids cross over) |
| Differences Between Mitosis and Meiosis | Meiosis has crossing over and independent assortment of homologous pairs (these increase genetic diversity). |
