Cells
A way in which plant cells and animal cells are similar.
Both are eukaryotic cells
Both have a nucleus & membrane-bound organelles
The processes that relies directly on the complementary base pairing of nucleotides.
DNA Replication
Tapeworms are sometimes found in the small intestines of sheep. A tapeworm attaches to the intestinal wall using suckers and then absorbs nutrients from the sheep’s intestine. Identify this specific symbiotic relationship
PARASITIC
Turtles are classified in the order Testudines. Some turtles are aquatic and others are terrestrial. Aquatic turtles have webbed feet and short claws, but terrestrial turtles do not. Despite their differences, aquatic turtles and terrestrial turtles are classified in the same order but different families, genus and species.
What is aquatic turtles and terrestrial turtles evolved from a common ancestor, but they have adapted to different environments?
The respiratory system helps to maintain homeostasis during exercise.
What is increasing breathing rate to carry more O2 to active cells and get rid of CO2 more quickly?
During the processes of respiration and photosynthesis in plant cells, there are the three primary elements that cycle between the mitochondria and chloroplasts.
CO2, H2O, C6H12O6
carbon dioxide, water, glucose
Mendels' law that states two alleles of a gene pair separate during gamete formation.
What is Law of Segregation?
Chipmunks eat a variety of plant material, including acorns from oak trees. During certain years, oak trees produce much greater numbers of acorns than usual. These highly productive years are called mast years. Mast years have an impact on chipmunk population.
What is population increases?
Fossils evidence of snakes with hind limbs but no forelimbs have been discovered.
What is snakes have evolved from an ancestral reptile with limbs?
Yellow fever, encephalitis, and measles are diseases in humans. The disease causing agents take over the machinery of the cells and use it to reproduce.
What is a virus?
Some cell types contain thousands of mitochondria. These cells are likely to use large amounts of a specific molecule.
What is ATP?
In a plant called jimsonweed, flowers can be white or purple. A jimsonweed plant with white flowers is crossed with a jimsonweed plant with purple flowers. All of the offspring have purple flowers.
What is the allele for purple flowers is dominant to the allele for white flowers?
The possible cause of the change in population if emigration and immigration remain stable, but the animal population decreases from 800 individuals to 600 individuals.
What is the population size of the animal’s predator increased?
A species of newt produces a toxin that can kill predators. Scientists have observed that some garter snakes can feed on the newts because they have a natural resistance to the toxin. In areas where populations of newts and garter snakes interact, this relationship is supported by evolutionary theory.
What is the garter snakes with resistance to the toxin will successfully reproduce and pass the trait on to their offspring?
The specialized neurons carry nerve impulses from pressure receptors in the skin to the central nervous system.
What are sensory neurons?
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration both happen in plant cells but photosynthesis only happens in specific organelles.
What is photosynthesis occurs only in cells containing chlorophyll or chlorophasts, but cellular respiration occurs in all cells?
Height is a polygenic trait in humans which explains the huge variation in height with a population.
What is height is controlled by more than one gene?
The number of monarch butterflies counted in one location in the western United States dropped from 354,300 to 50,853 over a 10-year period. What is the most likely explanation for this change in population?
What is the death rate was greater than the birth rate?
The average toxin level in a poisonous frog population increases over time in response to high predation is an example of a biological process.
What is natural selection?
The specific component of blood that is directly responsible for transporting oxygen to body cells.
What are red blood cells?
The cellular process that is directly responsible for replacing skin cells human body sheds constantly.
What is mitosis?
In mussels, the allele for brown coloring (B) is dominant, and the allele for blue coloring (b) is recessive. There is only 1 possible combination of parental genotypes that will result in 100% of the blue offspring.
What is bb x bb?
Many lichens are composed of fungi and algae. The fungi get sugars from the algae, and the algae get water, minerals, and proteins from the fungi. This is an example of a specific ecological relationship between the fungi and algae.
What is mutualism?
Whale fins and bat wings are anatomically similar or homologous structures. This indicates a specific evolutionary connection between whales and bats
What is whales and bats have a common ancestry?
Hepatitis is a disease of the liver that results in decreased liver function.
What is toxic compounds build up in the blood?
