What is reproduce with another, grow and develop, process energy, respond to stimuli, made of cells, have DNA/RNA, etc...
200
How is total magnification calculated with a microscope ?
What is multiply power of eyepiece with power of objective being used.
200
An educated guess is also called a -
What is hypothesis
200

These pieces of glass or plastic contain specimens when viewed.
What is a slide
300
Maintaining a balanced internal environment is called -
What is homeostasis
300
Why is a control needed in an experiment ?

400
Name the characteristic each of the following terms is associated with - METABOLISM, DNA, HOMEOSTASIS
What is METABOLISM - processing energy, DNA - reproduction, HOMEOSTASIS - response to stimuli

The slide adjustment knobs move the stage in these directions.
What is left and right and away and toward the viewer
400
Which variable is not regulated by the scientist ?
What is dependant
400
What's wrong with the statement, "Viruses are alive because they are made of cells ?"
What is Viruses are MUCH SMALLER than even the smallest of cells.

What's with this way of using a microscope, "Amelia could not find the specimen on the slide even though she always started with the stage at its lowest setting and brought it up using the slide adjustment knobs."
What is two things wrong - you should always start high and move and slide away from or down when looking through the eyepiece AND the coarse and fine adjustment knobs are used to move the slide up and down; the slide adjustment knobs are used to move the slide left, right, away and toward the viewer.

Evolution and adaptations are related. Explain how.
What is evolution occurs through natural selection of adaptations of populations.

The transmission electron and light microscopes work essentially the same way but with different particles. The scanning electron microscope works differently. Explain.
What is With the scanning electron microscope, electrons are BOUNCED OFF OF the specimen instead of going through them.
