9 Living Environment
Safety, Measurement, Life Functions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Life Function: 1)Use food to make ATP, 2)Releases energy from food 3)Obtaining nutrients and then using them to make usable form of energy ATP | RESPIRATION |
| Life Function: 1)Organisms producing new individuals of the same kind 2)Make more members of a species | REPRODUCTION |
| Life Function: Organisms get/obtain food/nutrients and use it for all the functions | NUTRITION |
| Waste from cells from metabolism of all the functions working together, such as water, CO2, nitrogen, sulfates, phosphates... | METABOLIC WASTE |
| Life Function: 1)Reacting to a change in the environment (weather, temperature) to maintain stability, control, coordination... 2)Controls the nerves and chemicals in multi-cellular animals and all organisms | REGULATION |
| Life Function: 1)DISTRIBUTING nutrients, gases, wastes, and ABSORBING of nutrients and gases. 2)Movement of nutrients and wastes around the organism | TRANSPORT |
| Life Function: Increase in the number of cells resulting in an increase in the organisms SIZE | GROWTH |
| 1) a.k.a. Dynamic Equilibrium, 2) maintaining a stable internal environment | HOMEOSTASIS |
| The sum of all chemical activities and functions working together in an organism to sustain life. (Hint: Good=healthy and growing, Bad=fat, sick, disease) | METABOLISM |
| Which function provides substances that may be used by an organism for its growth and for the repair of its tissue? | NUTRITION |
| What activity is carried on by EVERY living plant and animal? | GETTING NUTRIENTS TO MAKE ENERGY/ATP = RESPIRATION |
| 1)Combine simple molecules to form complex molecules. 2)As a direct of the ___ life process, a plant makes a variety of complex chemical substances from simpler ones, such as poisons, drugs, and flavorings. | SYNTHESIS |
| Taking IN food is called _____. | INGESTION. |
| The study of living things is called B_______. | BIOLOGY |
| 1)The removal of metabolic waste products in the form of sweat, urine, and CO2. 2)Disposal of metabolic waste | EXCRETION |
| This is the one life process not necessary for any individual organism to survive but IT IS needed for survival of the species because organisms make their own kind. | REPRODUCTION |
| How does excretion help the organism to maintain homeostasis? | EXCRETION GETS RID OF HARMFUL WASTES THROUGH SWEAT, URINE, AND CO2. |
| How does transport assist the organism to maintain homeostasis? | TRANSPORT MOVES NUTRITION AND WASTE MATERIALS THROUGH THE CELL OR ORGANISM. |
| A n________ is a substance that provides the body with the materials and energy needed to carry out the basic life of cells. (Fats, carbohydrates, water) | NUTRIENT |
| What is the acronym (little saying) to remember the order of the metric system prefixes, from largest to smallest? | KING HENRY DRANK 1 DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE MILK |
| Name the prefixes for metric measurement in order from largest to smallest | KILO, HECTO, DEKA, 1, DECI, CENTI, MILLI |
| KHD1dcm To convert a smaller unit to a BIGGER unit, move the decimal point to the ________ or _____. | LEFT or DIVIDE |
| KHD1dcm To convert a bigger unit to a smaller unit, move the decimal point to the __________ or ____________. | RIGHT OR MULTIPLY |
| 8 g = ________ mg | 8000 mg |
| 742,000 m = ________km | 742 km |
| 10 m = ________ cm | 100 cm |
| 31 L = ________ mL | 31,000 mL |
| 5.05 m = ______ cm | 502 cm |
| True/False: The primary function of an egg for a developing baby bird is continuation of the species through reproduction. | True |
| True/False: A bean seed germinates. This is an illustration of the life process of growth. | True |
| True/False: If there is a rapid rise in the number of red blood cells, there will NOT BE a disruption of homeostasis. | False, there WILL BE a disruption of homeostasis. |
| Nutrition includes three processes: 1) I___, 2) D___, 3) E_____ | INGESTION, DIGESTION, EGESTION |
| What is the difference between egestion and excretion? | EGESTION: POOP/ELIMINATION OF UNDIGESTED FOOD. EXCRETION: SWEAT/URINE/CO2 REMOVED FROM CELLS |
| What acronym do we use to remember the 8 life functions? | G R R S N E R T |
| Taking in materials through cell membranes | ABSORPTION |
| True/False: If you don't maintain internal homeostasis, you could get a disease (like cancer). | TRUE |
| Breaking down food. Hint: the first part of nutrition | DIGESTION |
| Mass is measured in g_____ on a t___ b____ b_____ | GRAMS on a TRIPLE BEAM BALANCE |
| Volume is measured in l____ in a g___ c_____. | LITRES in a GRADUATED CYLINDER |
| Length is measured in m____ with a r____. | METERS with a RULER |
| Temperature is measured in C___ with a _____. | CELSIUS with a THERMOMETER |
