| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 4 characteristics of living things | metabolic process, generative process, responsive process, complex organization process |
| Metabolic Process | Chemical reactions; Organisms obtain, convert, utilize energy to run cellular processes, then release any waste products made |
| Generative Process | Reproduction, growth |
| Responsive Process | Homeostasis |
| Complex Organization Process | Cells |
| Metabolism | Using energy to produce all the chemical reactions required to live |
| Three types of generative processes | organisms can grow & repair by increasing the number of cells; organisms reproduce either sexually or asexually to pass on genetic information to their offspring |
| Unicellular organisms reproduce | asexually |
| Responsive/Regulation Process | Organisms interact with and respond to stimuli from their external environment & from their internal environment |
| Homeostasis | Maintaining a constant/stable internal environment that allows dynamic metabolic activities |
| Complex Structural Organization/Order | Cells are the most basic unit of structure and function in living organisms |
| Levels of Biological Organization | Atoms, Molecules, Cells, Tissues, Organs, Organ Systems, Organisms, Population, Community, Ecosystem, Biosphere |
| Taxonomy | The service of naming organisms and grouping them into logical categories |
| Hierarchical Groupings: DKPCOFGS | Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species |
| Domains | Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya |
| Bacteria | Prokaryotic, unicellular, reproduce asexually, lack membrane band nucleus |
| 4 Major Biomacromolecules in linving organisms | Proteins, Lipids, Carbohydrates, Nucleic Acids |
| Tissues (4) | Nervous, Muscle, Connective, Epithelial |
| Archaea | Prokaryotic, unicellular organisms. Reproduce asexually. |
| Eukarya | Unicellular to multicellular organisms. Sexual reproduction. Each kingdom has specializations. |
| 4 Major modes of Nutrition | Photoautotrophs, Photoetrotrophs, Chemoautotrophs, Chemotetrotrophs. |
| Two major cell types | Prokaryotic, Eukaryotic |
| Prokaryotic | small, simple structure, few organelles, DNA with no membrane, reproduce asexually |
| Eukaryotic | Larger, complex structure, contain many types of organelles, DNA surrounded by membrane, reproduce asexually |
| Animals | Eukaryotes, lack cell walls |
| How animals are classified | Types of body symmetry, number of tissue layers, types of body plans, segmentation, type of skeleton |
| Types of body symmetry | Asymmetry, radial, bilateral |
| Number of tissue layers | diploblast, triploblast |
| Types of body plans | acoelomate, psuedocoelomate, coelomate |
| segmentation | annelida, arthropoda, chordata |
| type of skeleton | hydroskeleton, endoskeleton, exoskeleton |
| human organ system | |
| integumentary | skin to protect |
| skeletal | bones to move |
| muscular | muscles to move |
| nervous | coordination |
| endocrine | hormones in your blood |
| cardiovascular | circulates oxygen, nutrients, and waste |
| lymphatic/immune | filters out the bad stuff |
| respiratory | intake oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide |
| digestive | intake nutrients |
| urinary | filters out nitrogenous waste from the blood |
