Biology Scope
The name of an 'option' for a trait (ex: for hair color: blonde, brown, black)
What is an allele.
The building blocks of life
What are Macromolecules.
Organisms that make their own food (Organism that use sunlight to produce chemical energy)
What is an autotroph
When both alleles are the same
What is homozygous.
The four macromolecules
What are Carbohydrates, protein, lipids, and Nucleic Acids
The best type of evidence for evolution
What is molecular biology (DNA).
Field of biology which involves the study of the body.
What is Anatomy.
When both alleles are different
What is Heterozygous
Glucose is this type of macromolecule.
What is carbohydrate.
Cell division
What is mitosis.
The amount of energy passed from each trophic level
What is 10%.
Inheritance pattern where both alleles are present (ex: spotted)
What is Codominance.
Cellular energy produced during cellular respiration
What is ATP.
The physical expression of a gene
What is a phenotype.
The variable I am changing as the scientist
What is Independent Variable.
Inheritance pattern where neither allele is dominant over the other so they are bleneded or mixed (white x red flower= pink flower)
What is Incomplete Dominance.
The monomer unit of proteins.
What are amino acids.
The order of organization from Cell to Ecosystem
Cells to Tissue to Organ to Organ System to Organism to Population to Community to Ecosystem
