Scientific Method/ Characteristics of Life
All living things are composed of
What is the sun
What are the reactants and products of photosynthesis
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Water (H2O)
Oxygen (O2) and Glucose (C6H12O6)
What body system breaks down food into usable molecules
What is the digestive system
A change in a species over time
What is evolution
The acquiring of information using the 5 senses
What is an observation
An organism that makes its own food
Producer
These are the reactants and products of cellular respiration
C6H12O6 (glucose) and O2(oxygen)
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and H2O (water) and ATP
This body system coordinates and controls all the life functions in the body
What is the nervous system
When an organism cannot adapt to a changing an environment the organism
The group that is not exposed or given the independent variable, it serves as a comparison
In a energy pyramid as you go from one level to the next there is
What is less energy
What are the building blocks of proteins and what do they do
Amino Acids, build and repair muscle and speed up reactions
This organelle is is where DNA is stored in the cell also know as the "control center of the cell"
What is the Nucleus
When look at fossil evidence for evolution how are the layers arranged
What are lower layers are older and layers closer to the surface are younger
To maintain a normal body temperature, or to balance water levels in the blood, are examples of how the body performs
What is homeostasis
Give an example of a herbivore, carnivore and omnivore
What is a deer, Wolf and bear
What are sugars stored as in humans
Glycogen or fat
This is where proteins are made in the cell, some are attached to the Rough Endoplasmic or free floating in this
What are ribosomes and in the cytoplasm
What are the 5 pieces of evidence of evolution
What is fossil evidence, embryology, DNA and amino acid comparison, analogous and homologous structures
What is the independent variable and dependent variable
What are 3 ecological Relationships and an example of each
Mutualism: bees and flowering plants
commensalism: remora fish and sharks/ birds and tree
Parasitism: mosquito and human
What are the 4 macromolecules and give me an example of each
Carbohydrates: sugars
Lipids: glycogen
Proteins: enzymes
Nucleic Acid: DNA and RNA
These are the organelles where cellular respiration and photosynthesis occur
What are the mitochondria and the chloroplasts
Pieces of evidence for evolution are analogous and homologous structures the difference between the 2 are... it shows... and examples are...
What are structures that look different and have the same function, look similar and have different functions, shows a common or no common ancestor and what are human arm and whale flipper, and bird wing and moth wing
