Observe the following object. Determine if it is living or nonliving and explain your reasoning.


Living - organelles (nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm)


100

Name the two organelles that are found only in plant cells.

Cell wall and chloroplast

100

The organelle where photosynthesis occurs.

Chloroplast



100

A group of organs that work together.

Organ system

100

A living thing that breaks down wastes and eats dead things.

Decomposer

200

Observe the following object. Determine if it is living or nonliving and explain your reasoning.


Nonliving - no organelles

200

This organelle allows materials to move into and out of the cell:


Cell Membrane

200

The organelle where cellular respiration occurs.

Mitochondria

200

As the rate of exercise increases, the heart rate ______.

Increases

200

All of Earth's ecosystems make up the ________.

Biosphere

300

As an organism grows, their mass _______.

Increases

300

This organelle is the site of photosynthesis and makes food for the plant:


Chloroplasts

300

This process can be performed by both animal and plant cells.

Cellular respiration

300

Name the 2 body systems that work together when oxygen is inhaled into the lungs and then oxygen is transported throughout the body in the bloodstream.

Respiratory (lungs) and circulatory (bloodstream)

300

In ecosystems, all energy for life comes from this source.

The Sun

400

An action your body does after something happens (ex. mouth waters, moves hand away)

Response

400

The difference between a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic cell. (Hint: "Pro" means "no")

A prokaryotic cell doesn’t have a nucleus.  

A eukaryotic cell has a nucleus.


400

Glucose (C6 H12 O6) and Oxygen (O2) are the two products of this process.

Photosynthesis

400

List 3 functions of the skeletal system.

Support, protection, makes blood.

400

Define consumer and list the 3 types of consumers.

Consumer - An organism that cannot make its own food

Herbivore- eat plants

Carnivore- eat meat

Omnivore- eats plants and animals

500

Something that causes you to react (ex. smell good food, touch hot object)

Stimulus

500

Explain why water moves out of a cell across the membrane when placed in salt water and what happens to the cell's appearance.

When a cell is placed into saltwater, water will leave the cell and move into the salt water.  Salt water always has a lower water concentration.  Water naturally wants to move from high concentration to low concentration.  The cell membrane and cytoplasm will shrink.  

500

Carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H20), and chemical (ATP) energy are the products of this process.

Cellular respiration

500

List the five levels of organization of living systems from smallest to largest.

Cells - The basic unit and function of all living things.

Tissue - Group of similar cells performing the same function.

Organs - A group of specialized tissues performing one main function.

Organ Systems -  A group of organs that carry on one of the major body functions.

Organism - Made up of systems that perform its functions.

500

Many overlapping food chains where there are always more producers than consumers.

Food webs
