What is Hierarchal Classification classification in which groups are contained with larger more general groups
What is the Morphological species concept identifying species based on morphology (body shape, size and structure)
What is the Phylogenic species concept identifying species based phylogeny (evolution history)
What is the Biological species concept identifying species based on their ability to produce fertile offspring

What is anatomy branch of biology that deals with the structure and form of organisms including internal systems
How is anatomical evidence used comparing the anatomy of different species using fossils or looking for homologus structures
what is physiology the study of the biochemistry of organisms in
How is physiological evidence used comparing proteins between species because proteins are determined by genes. this reveal how genetically similar organisms are
how is DNA evidence used comparing DNA sequences of different species to determine evolutionary realtionships
What is a phylogenic tree a branching diagram that represents a hypothesis about the evolutionary relativeness between speices
what is an ancestor any organism from which another organism has descended, forming a part of its evolutionary lineage
What is a heterotroph an organism that eats other organisms for food
What is an autotroph an organism that makes its own food
What is a dichotomous key a key/index that helps identify organisms through a series of choices with 2 contradicting options
What is a eukaryotic cell a cell that has a present nucleus, generally larger cell size, present organelles, linear DNA, which produces sexually (no cell wall)
What is a prokaryotic cell a cell that has an absent nucleus, generally smaller cell size, absent organelles, circular DNA, which produces asexually (present cell wall)
what is a sessile organism an organism which cannot move
what is a motile organism an organism which can move
What is a capsid protective protein coat of a virus which holds genetic material
what is the lytic cycle a process that produces a new virus inside a host cell and results in the destruction of the cell
what are the steps of the lytic cycle 1. attachment 2. entry 3. replication 4. assembly 5. lysis
what is the lysogenic cycle a process where viral DNA replicates along with the host's dna without killing the host immediately
what are the 3 common shapes of prokaryotic cells cocci - spherical bacilli - rod shaped spirilla - spiral shaped
What is conjugation exchange of DNA between bacteria, sharing material transferring between two cells via pilus (bridging structure)
what is an extremophile archaea which live in extreme conditions like high temp, high acid content, and high salt concentration
what is a mesophile bacteria that live in moderate condiitons
what is methanogenesis a process of archaea producing methane gas using methanogens
what is the endosymbiotic theory the theory that a larger cell engulfed smaller prokaryotic cells capable of aerobic respiration or photosynthesis (cells evolved to be mitochondria and chloroplasts)
what is cilia hair like projections that help certain prokaryotic cells move
what is flagella a tail that helps certain prokaryotic cells move
what is a pseudopod false feet that helps certain prokaryotic cells move
what is an embryo plant data inside a seed protected and nourished by parent
what is a gametophyte a haploid organism
what is a sporophyte a diploid organism
what is an angiosperm organisms that protect their seeds in fruits and reproduce using flowers (vascular plants, protected seeds, reproduce with flowers)
what is a bryophyte non-vascular seedless plants that reproduce with spores: gametophyte dominant (haploids)
what is a cone reproductive structures of gymnosperms
what is a flower angiosperm's specialized structures for reproduction
what is a fruit angiosperm's specialized structures for seed protection
what is a gymnosperm a vascular plant that produces naked seeds. reproduces with cones (male and female) and is sporophyte dominant (diploid)
what is a fungus (skip maybe) diverse group of eukaryotic organisms
what is the hyphae the unique filaments of mycelium
what is mycelium fungi's branching network of filaments underground
what is bilateral symmetry when an organism can be divided into two mirror image halves
what is radial symmetry when an organism can be split around a central axis
what is segmentation the division of an animals body into segments that can operate independently
what is a coelom fluid filled cavity - for organ development and movement
what is an exoskeleton external body covering for the body of some invertebrates like anthropods
what is an endoskeleton internal skeleton of vertebrates
what is an invertebrate an animal without a backbone
what is a mammary gland gland in chest area which allows for secretion of milk for offspring
what is a notochord flexible rod like structure that muscles attach to (which was replaced by spine)
what is a vertebrate an animal with a backbone
what is a tetrapod four legged animal
what is antheridium plant structure that produces male gametes (sperm)
what is archegonium plant structure that produces female gametes (eggs)
What cell types do bacteria and archaea have prokaryotes
What cell types do protists, pants, fungi, and animals have eukaryote
are bacteria and archaea unicellular or multicellular unicellular
are plants and animals unicellular or multicellular multicellular
are protists and fungi unicellular or multicellular fungi are mostly multicellular protists are unicellular and multicellular
what type of nutrition do bacteria, archaea, and protists use autotrophic and heterotrophic
what type of nutrition do plants use autotrophic
what type of nutrition do animals and fungi use heterotrophic
how do bacteria and archaea reproduce asexually
how do protists reproduce asexually and sexually
how do plants, fungi, and animals reproduce sexually
how do archaea and bacteria reproduce binary fission (asexual) conjugation (sexual)
what is some evidence that supports the endosymbiotic theory 1. DNA (mitochon and chloropla have own DNA separate from cell) 2. ribosomes similar to other prokaryotes 3. Divide by binary fission like prokaryotes 4. double membrane, evidence of being eated 5. similar genes to bacteria
what are some adaptations plants used to help them survive on land 1. vascular tissue to carry water 2. cuticle to reduce water loss by evaporation 3. stomata to regulate gas exchange while minimizing water loss 4. embryo protected by parent to improve land surival 5. roots to anchor plant and absorb water from soil
how many chambered hearts do fish have 2
how many chambered hearts do amphibians and reptiles have 3
how many chambered hearts do birds and mammals have 4
what are some impacts of bacteria on human life cyanobacteria photosynthesizing probiotic bacteria in gut that helps is inhibit growth of disease causing bacteria bad bacteria can cause disease like pneumonia

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
