Cells! Cells!
This is the organelle that directs all of the cells activities and contains the DNA
What is the nucleus?
This is the system that breaks down starch and protein.
What is the digestive system?
This is how many copies of each gene an organism has.
What is two: one copy from mom and one from dad
What is variation?
This is all of the living or once living parts of an ecosystem.
What are biotic factors?
This are the organlles that makes proteins.
What are the ribosomes?
This is the system that transports molecules to cells.
What is the circulatory system?
These are gene versions that are different.
What is heterozygous?
This is the number of individuals that have a trait and is on the Y axis.
What is distribution?
This is all of the nonliving, never living parts of an ecosystem and include water, rocks, sand, air, temperature.
What are abiotic factors?
What is the chloroplast?
These are the molecules that all cells need.
What are amino acids, glucose, and oxygen?
A parent whose gene versions are AA and another parent whose gene versions are aa are wondering what their offspring's gene versions could be.
What is 100% Aa?
This allows organisms to survive in a particular environment.
What is an adaptive trait?
This is where one change in a population inadvertently affects a different population. An example is the balsam fir population increasing because the wolf population increased.
What is an indirect effect?
This is the organelle that surrounds the cell and allows some molecules to pass through it.
What is the cell membrane?
These two molecules combine for cellular respiration to make energy for cells in the mitochondria.
What are glucose and oxygen
These connect together in different ways to make our traits.
What are proteins?
This is when camoflage is an adaptive trait.
What is when there are predators in the environment.
This is a diagram showing overlapping food chains.
What is a food web?
These three organelles are only found in plant cells.
What are the chloroplasts, cell wall, and large central vacuole.
These two are needed for growth and repair
What are ATP (energy) and amino acids
These code for the creation of proteins.
What are genes?
Structures (like the ulna, radius, humerus, phlanges) that are shared but may have a different function.
Homologous structures (one piece of evidence for common ancestors)
Both sardines and moon jellies eat zooplankton. Leatherback sea turtles eat jellies. The turtle population has remained stable. The zooplankton population has remained stable. The moon jelly population has tripled in size. This is what happened to the sardine population.
What is decreased?
