Question
Answer
show studies living things and their characteristics. encompasses both plans and animals, the structure of the cell, reproduction and propagation of the species, physical structure, behavior within environments, adaptations and interdependence of a species  
🗑
show monera, protista, fungi, plantae, animalia  
🗑
show single-celled organisms without nuclei (bacteria)  
🗑
protista   show
🗑
fungi   show
🗑
plantae   show
🗑
show multi-cellular animals (10-21 phyla)  
🗑
show kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species (Kids Playing Chicken On Freeways Get Smashed)  
🗑
show contains organisms that are genetically related through common ancestry  
🗑
class   show
🗑
orders   show
🗑
show splits order into smaller units in which organisms have multiple traits in common  
🗑
show breaks down family in which the organisms show many common attibutes  
🗑
show last break down in which organisms can interbreed and produce offspring that can propagate the species  
🗑
show made of protoplasm, organized into cells, use energy, capable of growth, have definite life spans, reproduce and give rise to similar organisms, affected by the environment, adapt to the environment, respond to the environment  
🗑
cell   show
🗑
breakdown of a living body (4 things)   show
🗑
tissue   show
🗑
organs   show
🗑
show a group of organs working together  
🗑
show a group of systems  
🗑
show manufacture proteins and other materials for building cells, manufacture energy, to reproduce  
🗑
cell membrane   show
🗑
show control center of cell, "the brain" that contains DNA  
🗑
cytoplasm   show
🗑
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)   show
🗑
show manufacture proteins  
🗑
mitochondria   show
🗑
lysosomes   show
🗑
show packages the proteins and transports them through the cell  
🗑
vacoules   show
🗑
show only in plants; made of cellulose, provides rigit structure for plant, permits passage in and out of cell  
🗑
chloroplasts   show
🗑
show the anchor/absorbs water and minerals  
🗑
stem   show
🗑
leaves   show
🗑
flower   show
🗑
fruit   show
🗑
show nutrition (digestive), respiration (respiratory), response (brain and NS), regulation (glands and hormones), excretion (kidneys and other organs), circulation (circulatory), movement (NS and brain), reproduction (sexual and asexual)  
🗑
show a cell that cretes two identical pairs of chromosomes, splits, and forms nuclei around the chromosomes. Cells divide by mitosis. new cells are created using only one "parent" ex. algae, bacteria, sponges, mold, fungi  
🗑
sexual   show
🗑
show deoxyribonucleic acid - carries the code of protein production, which is the code of life  
🗑
chromosomes   show
🗑
show dominate trait appears in organism  
🗑
DR   show
🗑
RR   show
🗑
examples of D traits   show
🗑
examples of R traits   show
🗑
show a scientific process in which inherited traits of organisms change from one generation to the next - two major beliefs - natural selection and adaptations  
🗑
natural selection   show
🗑
adaptations   show
🗑
show organisms best adapted to an environment will generally produce the most offspring. Offspring that pose the more favorable traits will survive and reproduce ex. polar bears are best suited to the cold region of the world and continue to populate there  
🗑
ecology   show
🗑
biosphere   show
🗑
ecosystem   show
🗑
show 1. constant source of energy (sun-solar energy) 2. energy is converted to glucose (needed by all living things). 3. organic nutrients and matter are recycled successfully  
🗑
show the primary way ecosystems transmit and disperse energy  
🗑
show supply of energy changes, food cycle interrupted, organic matter and nutrients increase or decrease, natural disasters (floods, eqarthquakes, tornadoes, erosion), natural phenomena (el nino), human contribution (air or water pollution, etc)  
🗑
show 1. come into being (sometimes a larvae state) 2. grow 3. metamorphosis 4. mature 5. reproduce 6. die  
🗑


   

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.
