QuestionAnswer
scientists have identified how many species, and how many species are left to be identified 1.5 mil identified, 2-100 mil left to be identified
taxonomy classification of organisms+ given universally accepted name (in Latin)
binomial nomenclature (and who invented it) two-part name for classification, invented by Carolus Linneaus)
what are the levels of classification kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species (remember kings play cards on five green stools)
phylogeny study of evolutionary relationships between organisms
evolutionary classification organizing groups based on evolutionary history (used because sometimes organisms that look similar don't have a common ancestor)
cladogram like a tree diagram
derived characters located in newer generations in cladogram but not in older generations
what is the domain, kingdom, cell type, cell structure, number of cells, mode of nutrition and examples of bacteria bacteria, eubacteria, prokaryote, cell walls w/peptoglycan, unicellular, autotroph or heterotroph, strep, e. coli
what is the domain, kingdom, cell type, cell structure, number of cells, mode of nutrition and examples of archea archea, archaebacteria, prokaryote, cell walls without peptoglycan, unicellular, autotroph or heterotroph, methanogens, halophiles
what is the domain, kingdom, cell type, cell structure, number of cells, mode of nutrition and examples of protists eukarya, protista, cell walls of cellulose in some; some have chloroplasts, most unicellular and some multicellular, autotroph or heterotroph, ameoba
what is the domain, kingdom, cell type, cell structure, number of cells, mode of nutrition and examples of fungi eukarya, fungi, eukaryote, cell walls of chitin, most multicelluar, some unicelluar, heterotroph, mushroom
what is the domain, kingdom, cell type, cell structure, number of cells, mode of nutrition and examples of plants eukarya, cell walls of cellulose, chloroplasts, multicellular, autotroph, mosses, ferns trees
what is the domain, kingdom, cell type, cell structure, number of cells, mode of nutrition and examples of animals eukarya, eukaryote, no cell walls or chloroplasts, multicellular, heterotroph, mammals
what are four important characteristics of a population -geographic distribution -population -growth rate -age structure
what are three factors that affect population size -number of births -number of deaths -number of individuals moving in/out of the population
natality birth rate
logistical growth s curve
exponential growth j curve
what is rate strategy (also known as r strategy) used in smaller animals with shorter lifespans and produces many offspring
what is carrying capacity strategy (also k-strategy used in larger animals with longer lifespans and produces fewer offspring
dispersal movement of organisms away from the parent organism
uniform dispersal uniform
random dispersal random
clumped dispersal clumped
limiting factor what causes the population to decrease and not continue to grow exponentially
what are 4 density dependent factors (depend on population size) competition predation parasitism disease
when do density dependent factors happen when a population reaches a certain level (affects large and dense populations more than small and sparse)
density independent factors (DONT depend on population size) unusual weather natural disasters seasonal cycles certain human activities
when did the human population growth start to increase exponentially 500 years ago during the 1st industrial revolution
demography study of human populations
look at demographic transition graphs and age structure diagrams did u? :)
population growth depends highly on what age distribution
population a group of animals that can interbreed
what is a grid that you put over a small population to count it called quadrat
when a population increases by a constant factor at constant time intervals, it expiriences what type of growth? logistical growth
what kind of population growth is characterized by a repeating cycle of rapid increase in size followed by rapid decline boom and bust cycles
competition between members of the same species intraspecific
competition between members of different species interspecific
Hardy-Weinburg principle states that two species cannot occupy the same niche indefinitely without competition driving one into extinction
look at the graph of demographic transition did u do it?

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.
