100
This lifecycle process takes place in the sporangium, giving rise to spores.
Meiosis
100
True or false: Gymnosperms produce fruit?
False.
100
Is the earthworm more closely related to a snail or a nematode?
The snail. They are in the same clade Lophotrochozoa.
100
What are the three domains of life?
Bacteria, Archea, Eukarya
100
If you are using a 4X objective lens, what is the total magnification of the specimen under observation?
40X
200
Is this organism haploid or diploid?
The gametophyte of moss is haploid.
200
Where would you find the microgametophyte of a seed plant?
The pollen.
200
Name an animal that we saw in lab that is diploblastic.
Ex. Hydra, jellyfish, seafans, coral (any cnidaria).
200
What are the three components of a good hypothesis?
Focused, predictive, testable.
200
Do arthropods have an open or closed circulatory system?
Open.
300
Spores will develop into what lifecycle stage?
Gametophyte
300
What does the carpel of seed plants develop into?
The fruit.
300
Why are nematodes and arthropods grouped together in the same clade?
They both have an exoskeleton, thus they are in the clade Ecdysozoa.
300
Consider our units on soil microbiology (Units 10-11): What information were we hoping to obtain from the K-streak plates?
Diversity of microorganisms.
300
What is the difference between a primary and secondary forest?
A secondary forest is one that has developed after extensive alteration of the original forest site. For example, a forest that developes on abandoned farmland would be a secondary forest. A primary forest retains its original characteristics.
400
Where would you find the sporangia on Lycopodium or Selaginella?
In the strobilus.
400
Name the two tissue types produced by the vascular cambium.
The xylem and the phloem.
400
Are humans more closely related to insects or starfish?
Starfish. They are both deuterostomes.
400
Why is a sea urchin, which appears radially symmetrical, in the clade Bilateria?
It has a larval stage that has bilateral symmetry.
400
True or False: Your laboratory notebook should only record successful experiments, where all data supported our hypotheses.
False. Record all data, and all experiments whether they were successful or not.
500
Define the term haplodiplontic.
Having a lifecycle that alternates between multicellular haploid and diploid generations.
500
Where does primary growth occur in plants?
At the tips of roots and stems.
500
What is the lophophore?
U-shaped mouthparts with cilliated tentacles found on brachiopods and some other phyla within the clade lophotrochozoa.
500
Do cnidarians exhibit cephalization?
No.
500
Where would you find the secondary phloem of a woody plant?
The inner bark.
