This body system helps different parts of our body communicate and allows our brain to control what is going on.
What is the Nervous System?
During asexual reproduction, the offspring have this percentage of the parent’s chromosomes
What is 100%?
An organism that has two identical alleles for a trait is called both of these terms
What is: 1) Purebred 2) Homozygous
This is the term used to describe the push or pull on an object to make it move
What is Force?
Most nutrient absorption takes place in this part of the digestive system
What is the Small Intestine?
The sequence of human body structures ordered from simplest to most complex (see below)
*heart, heart cells, circulatory system, heart tissue
What is:
1) heart cells 2) heart tissue 3) heart
4) circulatory system
This type of cell division occurs when body cells undergo division which results in two identical daughter cells
What is Mitosis?
Scientists would classify an organism that is represented as *Tt* these two ways
What is 1) Hybrid 2) Heterozygous
Inertia is defined this way
What is: the property of a body by which it remains at rest or continues moving in a straight line unless acted upon by an outside force.
This is the shortest phase of mitosis
What is metaphase?
This body system distributes oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to the cells of the body. Also removes carbon dioxide other wastes from the blood.
What is the Circulatory System?
These are two advantages of asexual reproduction
What is:
1) Able to produce many offspring in a short amount of time
2) Efficient because only one parent is needed
In cattle, the alleles for red coat (RR) and white coat (WW), can combine to produce cattle with both red and white called "roan" (RW). *Using a Punnett Square, this would be the expected offspring from a cross of a roan cow and a red cow
What is: 50% Roan(RW), 50% Red(RR)
Sammy the snail travels 20 mm for 10 seconds at the same speed. The snail's speed is this many mm per second
What is 2mm/s?
The endocrine system best supports the many systems in the body this way
What is by producing and secreting chemical messages called hormones?
This is how digestive system and the circulatory system work together to help an organism live
What is the digestive system breaks food into nutrients that the circulatory system moves throughout the body.
These are the main differences between meiosis and mitosis
What is Meiosis results in *four genetically different cells, while Mitosis results in *two identical cells
This blood type is the universal donor - meaning any person can receive this blood type
What is Type O?
It took superman 10 minutes to rescue Lois Lane. If he flew a total of 35 miles. His speed can be calculated as this
What is 3.5 miles/min?
This is the physical representation of a trait
What is Phenotype?
One function of the circulatory system is to carry cellular nutrients to the body. This part of the circulatory system is responsible for exchanging oxygen and wastes at the cell level
What are capillaries?
If a mouse had 40 chromosomes, this is how many chromosomes the gametes have after the completion of meiosis
What is 20 chromosomes?
This statement BEST describes Incomplete Dominance
What is: one allele is not completely dominant over the other allele - the result is a blend of traits
Create a sketch on the board to represent the following story:
Henry ran home from his home to the bus-stop and waited. He realized that he had missed the bus so he walked home.
What is
*(teacher will check work for accuracy)
Hammers, shovels, wheelbarrows, and crowbars are all examples of this type of Simple Machine
What are Levers?
