All Living Things
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| All living things have... | DNA/Genetic Makeup |
| Whats the Difference Between the DNA of Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes? | P: free-floating DNA E: contained in a nucleus |
| All Living things are... | unicellular or multicellular |
| All Living things... | Reproduce |
| Sexual vs Asexual | S: 2 parents (male and female) A: 1 parent |
| What's the difference between growth and development? | Growth is getting bigger and Development is going through life stages (changes) |
| All living things pass on... | their traits to their offspring, have heredity |
| Whats the difference genetically between sexual and asexual reproduction? | A: organism makes a copy of itself original and copies genes are the same (mitosis) S: organisms have male and female genes change depending how they divide into the genetic code. |
| All living things depend on... | other organisms in their community for survival. both biotic (living) and abiotic (nonliving) INTERDEPENDENCE |
| All living things maintain... | homeostasis |
| What is homeostasis? | an organisms response to the environment through its maintenance of internal and external envornment |
| Stimulus | something in the environment that causes a response |
| Examples of homeostasis | body temperature pH levels sugar glucose levels nutrients water level |
| All living things need | energy |
| How do organisms obtain energy? | Autotrophs: synthesize their own food for energy ex: sun, photosynthesis, plants Heterotrophs: need to consume food for energy |
| What is energy used for? | synthesizing/ building complex molecules or signal molecules (enzymes) and catabolizing/ breaking down complex carbs into simple carbs |
| 3 parts of cell theory | 1) all living things are made up of one or more cells 2) cells are the basic units of structure & function in organisms 3) all cells arise from existing cells |
| 4 things all cells have are... | cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, and DNA |
| difference between p cells and e cells | p are not as contained and do not have a nucleus e are more complex with more organelles and have a nucleus |
| difference between a cells and h cells | a cells synthesize their own food for energy h cells consume food for energy |
| what structures are important to autotrophic plant cells | chloroplasts, cell wall, nucleolus, golgi apparatus cell membrane |
| levels of organization (living) | cell tissues organs organ systems organism population community ecosystem biosphere |
| levels of organization (nonliving) | atom molecule organelle |
