How many domains are there
three
How many kingdoms are there? Name them
six: fungi, protists, archaeabacteria, eubacteria, plantae and animilia
This organism has been used to study natural selection due to pollution
peppered moths
A birch tree has wide large leaves on high up branches to catch sunlight for photosynthesis
structural adaptation
The ability to see colors for birds that are active during the day is very important. Daylight allows birds to see all colors even better than humans. They have more cone structures in their eyes to detect color so that they can easily obtain food, notice attractive possible mates, and see danger quickly. They can even see ultraviolet light! Birds that are active at night have more rod structures and less cone structures in their eyes. Rod structures allow birds to see outlines and shapes clearly. Name 2 reasons why this beneficial
for better chance of survival and reproduction during the day and night
Name the three domains
archaea, bacteria and eukarya
Which of the kingdoms include eukaryotes. Name them
fungi, plants, animilia and protist
The variations in DNA among among the organisms of the same species
genetic variation
Pufferfish swim slow and clumsy which makes it easy to be attacked by a predator (benefeficial, or harmful)
behavioral adaptation and harmful
Which adaptation or behavior below involves abiotic factors that affect a plant’s survival in a desert biome?
A. bats pollinating flowers at night B. birds and insects pollinating flowers during the day C. herbivores trying to eat spiny plants D. needle-thin leaves lose less water and wide shallow roots soak up rain quickly
D. needle-thin leaves lose less water and wide shallow roots soak up rain quickly
Name the domain that is coined by "ancient bacteria"
Archaea
Which kingdom from the Eukarya domain are NOT heterotrophic?
Plants
Organisms are selected for particular traits and bred to create offspring with the desired traits or a combination of desired traits
Selective breeding
Male moose called bulls, roar loudly to attract mates (beneficial, or harmful)
behavioral adaptation and beneficial
One-celled organisms without a nucleus that are commonly found almost everywhere in nature are in domain
A. Prokarya B. Archaea C. Bacteria D. Eukarya
C. Bacteria
Halophile and Thermophile are apat of which domain?
Archaea
Which two kingdoms are classified as prokaryotic
archaebacteria and eubacteria
Actions that an organisms does to give it a better chance of survival in a given environment
behavioral adaptation
Beavers claim their territory by building piles of mud and marking it with a scent
behavioral adaptation
Which kingdoms have some organisms that can move freely?
archaebacteria eubacteria fungi protista plantae animalia
archaea, bacteria, eubacteria, protists, animalia
Name 2 characteristics that allow you to properly classify orgnaisms
The presence of a nucleus, the number of cells, how an organism obtains energy, and the mode of reproduction is used to classify as well
Pine tree, bluebonnet and catus all belong to which kingdom?
Plantae
Those organisms that are best suited to an environment are able to reproduce and pass on their genes. those offspring then continue to pass beneficial genes on to their offspring. Over time the species is better adapted ti its environment
Natural selection
Mama koala have a pouch where newborn koalas spend their first 6 months (beneficial, or harmful)
structural adaptation and beneficial
Kelp is an aquatic autotrophic multicellular organism with primitive characteristics when compared to the highly organized features of the other eukaryotic kingdoms, like plants. In which kingdom does it belong
protista
