What does DNA replication do?
What does the Carbon Cycle do?
It reuses carbon atoms.
What is parasitism?
One benefits and the other is harmed.
What is a Scientific Law?
A statement describing an observable occurrence in nature that consistently appears to be true.
What is it called when it shows a blending of traits?
Incomplete Dominance.
What is Genotype?
Genetic makeup.
What is a Stomata in plants?
Pores in the lower part of the leaf that allows gas exchange. Open and closing using guard cells.
What is phenotype?
Physical Trait.
What is a Scientific Theory?
a well-substantiated, comprehensive explanation of a natural phenomenon, backed by extensive evidence and confirmed through repeated observation and experimentation
What are sections of chromosomes (DNA) that code for specific traits?
Genes.
What is the difference between Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes?
Prokaryotes does not have nucleus while Eukaryotes does.
What is it called when the cell completely divides into two identical cells?
Cytokinesis.
What is it called when both traits are shown in the offspring? (both parental traits)
CoDominance.
What does C.E.R. stand for?

Where is DNA found in a cell?
Nucleus
What is it called when chromosomes line up in the middle of cell?
Metaphase.
When it comes to mutations what happens in framework deletion?
A base is removed from a sequence.
When it comes to mutations what happens in Chromosomal Inversion?
Reverse the direction of part of a chromosome.
What are the steps to the Scientific Method?
Observation: Noticing a phenomenon and asking a question.
Research: Consulting existing information to understand the topic.
Hypothesis: Forming a testable, educated explanation (e.g., "If [cause], then [effect]").
Experiment: Designing a controlled test to collect data, including independent, dependent, and controlled variables.
Data Analysis: Organizing and analyzing results to see if the hypothesis holds.
Conclusion: Determining if the data supports or refutes the hypothesis, leading to further investigation if necessary.
What is the difference between Scientific Law and Scientific Theory?
Scientific laws describe what happens (not why) in nature under specific conditions (often as a formula), while scientific theories explain why or how those phenomena occur.
What are the Biological Levels of Organization? (There are 10)
Cell, Tissue, Organ, Organ System, Organism, Population, Community, Ecosystem, Biome, and Biosphere.
What is it called when something is Unicellular, Prokaryotic, and it can be autotrophic or heterotrophic?
Bacteria.
What are the stages of Mitosis? (There are 6)
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, and Cytokinesis.
