DNA is the genetic material found in these, basic units of structure and function of living things.
What are cells?
100
This man fathered the Theory of Evolution
Who is Charles Darwin?
100
Any way that animals interact with each other or the environment.
What is Animal Behavior?
100
This the study of how living things interact with each other and with their environment.
What is Ecology?
100
This is the physical environment in which a species lives and to which it has become adapted.
What is habitat?
200
There are three types of this organic compound (Messenger, Ribosomal and Transfer) all of which are involved in making proteins.
What is RNA?
200
This process explains how some members of a species pass on advantageous traits because they are better suited or adapted to their environment.
What is Natural Selection?
200
Branch of biology that studies animal behavior.
What is Ethology?
200
Situation in which a species completely dies out and no members of the species remain.
What is extinction?
200
Most humans eat both plants and animals, making them this type of consumer.
What is an Omnivore?
300
This is the name of the spiral shape we commonly see DNA depicted in.
What is a Double Helix?
300
Those who believe that a God or God-like figure created all in the universe would more than likely think this was the evolutionary theory that made the most sense.
What is Creationism?
300
This behavior style is more flexible, it is a change in behavior based on what an animal has seen or experienced.
What is Learned Behavior?
300
What is a Food Web?
300
The feeding positions in a food chain or web are called these.
What are Trophic Levels?
400
The process in which cells make proteins or protein synthesis, consists of these two processes.
What are transcription and translation?
400
This theory from Jean-Baptiste would best suit you if you believed that you and your future offspring would grow longer limbs the more often you used them.
What is Lamarckism?
400
Behaviors that are closely controlled by genes with little or no environmental influence are called this.
What are Innate Behaviors?
400
This is a relationship between two species, or individuals of the same species, that strive for the same resources in the same place.
What is Competition?
400
This occurs when water on the surface changes to water vapor. The sun heats the water and gives water molecules enough energy to escape into the atmosphere.
What is Evaporation?
500
In terms of biological makeup, this "Code" is universal. All living things share this, it is unambiguous, and redundant.
What is the Genetic Code?
500
Mutationism; the theory that new species come from old species who have undergone a specific change or mutation was introduced by this man; his theories didn't gain a ton of traction during his time.
Who is Hugo de Vries
500
These are regular changes in biology or behavior that occur in a 24-hour cycle.
What are circadian rhythms?
500
A role that a particular species plays in its ecosystem, including all the ways that the species interacts with the biotic and abiotic factors in the ecosystem is referred to as this
What is a Niche?
500
This is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits
What is Symbiosis?
