QuestionAnswer
Questioning many questions about all organisms
Benefits of life science fight disease, environmental problems, inherit code that controls cells
Hypothesis possible answer to a question
Models study things no longer around, too small, too large, mathematical, physical, conceptual
Theory summary of tested hypothesis
Laws start off as hypothesis or theories
Light microscope view living things
Control group used to compare results to
SI system milliliter,
Life scientist study living things
Characteristics of all living things use energy, grow and develop, sense and respond to change
DNA nucleic acid
Water 70% of human body
Stimulus causes change
Response caused by stimulus, shivering when cold, sweating when hot
Needs of living things food, water, air, a place to live
Cells smallest part of a living thing to carry on the processes of life
Tissues cells with the same function
Function related to structure
Ribosomes make proteins, located on ER
ER cells delivery system
Vesicles carry materials between organelles
Levels of organization each is more complex than the one below
Surface Area to Volume ratio keeps cells small
Cell Theory all organisms are made of one or more cells, cells are the basic unit of living things, all cells come from other cells
Vacuole plants cells, digestion
Specialization makes organisms work more efficiently
Protists Animalcules
Hydrophobic repels water
Osmosis occurs in cells because they are mostly water
Diffusion materials move from area of high concentration to low concentration
Endocytosis move large particles in
Exocytosis move large particle out
Photosynthesis water and carbon dioxide form glucose and oxygen
Active transport move particles from low concentration to high concentration, needs energy
Chlorophyll in chloroplast
Respiration glucose and oxygen form water and carbon dioxide
Eukaryotes nucleus, more DNA
Prokaryotes no nucleus, ring of DNA in cytoplasm

DNA “rungs”= bases, made of nucleotides, twisted ladder
mRNA matches with transfer RNA at the ribosome
Deletion base is left out
Protein string of nucleotides for a trait
Addition extra base is added
Amino Acid code contains 3 bases
