Biomolecules
Which biomolecule is known as a source of quick energy?
Carbohydrates
This type of cell, such as bacteria, lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
This sugar can be found in DNA.
Deoxyribose
The process where organisms better adapted to their environment survive and produce more offspring.
Natural Selection
This is the broadest, most inclusive, and is at the very top of the taxonomy chart/pyramid.
Domain
What are the four most abundant elements found in the biomolecules?
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen
Eukaryotic cells contains this organelle known as, "the powerhouse" of the cell.
Mitochondria
This RNA molecule transfers amino acids to the ribosome.
tRNA
The phrase describing individuals with the best adaptations surviving or only the fittest survive.
Survival of the Fittest
Unlike plants, members of the Kingdom Animalia lack this rigid outer cellular structure.
Cell Wall
Enzymes are ______that lower the activation energy of reactions
Proteins
I am found in plant cells. I contain a rigid outer layer that is not found in animal cells.
Cell Wall
DNA replicates during which phase of the cell cycle?
A type of adaptation where an organism "blends" in with the environment.
Camouflage
This two-word scientific naming system, developed by Carl Linnaeus, used in Genus and Species.
Binominal Nomenclature
Fried chicken is a saturated fat which contains this biomolecule, which provides energy per gram.
Lipid
This structure is found in all cells (both types) and is responsible for protein synthesis.
Ribosomes
A mutation caused by an extra base being added. (Think of the arrow that was pointed up)
Insertion
The famous island where Darwin studied finches. Hint: think back to our Bird Beak lab and reading assignment, starts with a G.)
Galapagos Islands
The eight-level classification system includes Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus and this final, most specific level. (Hint: Think of the posters you made, what was at the bottom of the pyramid?)
Species
These are the four nitrogenous bases found in DNA.
Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine
These organisms, which include bacteria and archaea, possess this type of cell/are known to be what type of cell.
Prokaryotes
What are the three components of a nucleotide?
Sugar, Phosphate, and base
Bacteria evolving resistance to this is a direct example of natural selection. (Hint: What does the Doctor prescribe you when you have an infection?)
Antibiotics
What are the three domains of life?
Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya
