When the parent cell splits into two, creating a new clone offspring.
100
A segment of DNA, found on a chromosome, that determines a particular trait.

What is a GENE
100
What is the difference between a physiological adaptation and a structural adaptation?
Physiological=How the body works
Structural=How the body looks
100
Gathering food is which type of Adaptation?
What is a Behavioral Adaptation
100
Explain the process of MITOSIS! 1000 points again!
When cells in the human body REPLICATE (split into two identical cells)
200
What type of reproduction was done in ancient times to grow crops? Sketch an example.
What is vegetative propagation
200
Cell structure that contains DNA. Where is it located?
What is the NUCLEUS...located in the DNA.
200
Name 3 types of behavioral adaptations
Migration, Gathering food, building a web
200
Creating Venom is which type of Adaptation?
What is a Physiological Adaptation.
200
Give two examples of organisms who reproduce through budding. Three for double points!
Hydra, Yeast, and Coral
300
What type of reproduction occurs when an offspring grows out of the parent cell? and give an example.
What is budding
Yeast
300
Chromosomes are made up of what and found where?
Sketch THEM!
What is DNA and this is found in the NUCLEUS..DUH!
300
Name 3 examples of physiological adaptations
creating venom, skin changing color from sun, goosebumps, hibernation
300
Webbed feet is which type of adaptation? Why is this an advantage for an animal?
What is a Strucutral Adaptation
Swim faster to gather food and escape predators
300
Name two organisms that reproduce through vegetative propagation. Sketch one.
spider plant and potato
400
Describe three differences between sexual and asexual reproduction
In asexual reproduction the offspring is a clone 100% from parent.
In sexual reproduction the offspring is 50% from each parent so the offspring is unique.
400
If one parent has brown hair and the offspring then gets that trait, explain the process.
Brown hair is a dominant trait.
400
Explain an example of how an animal may become extinct such as polar bears. Needs to be detailed!
Answers will vary hold up boards!
400
A fish changing color to blend into its surroundings is an example of which type of adaptation? Sketch an example
What is a Structural Adaptation
Cuttle Fish
400
What is binary fission?
Name two organisms who do this.
What is the parent cell splitting into two cells.
Bacteria and Paramecium and Amoeba
500
What is a benefit and a negative of asexual reproduction?
What is a benefit and negative of sexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction is very fast. If one cell gets a disease then all will die
Sexual reproduction produces a variation of offsprings which can adapt and survive in its environment. Takes a long time.
500
Explain the process of an offspring getting blue eyes, even if neither parent or only one parent has them.
Both parents had to carry a RECEESIVE trait for blue eyes!
500
What are evolutionary adaptations? Give two examples.
Evolutionary Adaptations are changes that have taken place in an organism over a long period of time.
Exapmle: Giraffe's Neck and Horse growing
500
Explain how Hibernation is both a physiological and beavioral adaptation
Phys: Body has to slow down processes
Behavioral: Bear knows that it is a time of year to start the hibernation process
500
What is the reason scientists use dichotomous keys?
