THE PROCESS OF GROUPING THINGS BASED ON THEIR SIMILARITIES
Classification
Makes Energy; Powerhouse of the Cell
Mitochondria
What are specialized cells? and where are they found?
Cells that perform a specific function.
Only found in MULTICELLULAR organisms
The process of change over time is called
Evolution
What are four basic needs all living things need to have in order to survive?
FOOD, WATER, LIVING SPACE, HOMEOSTASIS (STABLE INTERNAL CONDITIONS)
The first word in an organism’s scientific name is always capitalized and is its
Genus
Acts as storage for the cell, especially for water. In the plant cell it is very large.
Vacuole
The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight and uses it to make food is called?
photosynthesis
The maintenance of stable internal conditions is called
Homeostasis

stimulus
Who developed a naming system that grouped organisms on the basis of their observable features
Carl Linnaeus
This organelle can only be found in plant cells and is used during photosynthesis
Chloroplast
The movement of dissolved materials across a cell membrane without using the cell’s energy is called
passive transport
Evidence for Evolution
Fossil record
The mistaken idea that living things can arise from nonliving things is called?
Spontaneous Generation
What was Darwin’s contribution to CLASSIFICATION?
The Theory of Evolution
These three ideas are part of the_______
ALL LIVING THINGS ARE COMPOSED OF CELLS
CELLS ARE THE BASIC UNIT OF STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION IN LIVING THINGS.
ALL CELLS ARE PRODUCED FROM OTHER CELLS
Cell Theory
What are the products of cellular respiration?
CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER, and ENERGY
Individuals that are better adapted, are more likely to survive and reproduce
Natural Selection
Name the six characteristics that all living things have in common
MADE OF CELLS,
DNA,
GROW & DEVELOP,
RESPOND TO THEIR ENVIRONMENT,
REPRODUCE,
USE ENERGY
List the eight levels of classification in order from broadest to most similar

(Dear, king, philip, came, over, for, good spaghetti)
Put the following in order from least complex to most complex: tissue, organism, organ, cell, organ system.
CELL, TISSUE, ORGAN, ORGAN SYSTEM, ORGANISM
Why is photosynthesis important for heterotrophs?
Oxygen is released into the air and it creates food that they can eat
What are organs or skeletal elements of organisms that show connection to a common ancestor?
Homologous structures
