What three characteristics are used to place organisms into domains and kingdoms? | 1. cell type 2. ability to make food 3. number of cells in their bodies
🗑
|
||||
Why do scientists classify living things? | It makes it easier to study organisms.
🗑
|
||||
What did the experiments of Redi and Pasteur demonstrate? | Living things do not arise from nonliving material.
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
Why was the invention of the microscope important? | It made it possible for people to discover and learn about cells.
🗑
|
||||
What are two parts of a scientific name? Give an example showing each part. | Genus + Species, like "Felis Domesticus" -- A species is group of similar organisms that mate and produce offspring tht can mate and reproduce.
🗑
|
||||
What are cells like in many-celled organisms? p.67 | In many-celled organisms, the cells are often quite different from each other and are specialized to perform specific functions.

|
||||
How does a bacterial cell differ from a plant or animal cell? | BACTERIAL CELL - no nucleus (prokaryote) and has a cell wall

🗑
|
||||
The more classification levels that two organisms share, means they have MORE or LESS characteristics in common? (Be able to interpret a classification table like we looked at in class.) | More
🗑
|
||||
What is the difference between growth and development? | Growth is the process of becoming larger, and development is the process of change that occurs during an organism's life to produce a more complex organism.

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
