The Biosphere
What does the biosphere consist of ?
Regions of land, bodies of water(oceans lakes and rivers) and the atmosphere.
Woodland is an example of what biologists call an ______
Ecosystem
Define Organisms
an individual living thing that carries on the activities of life by means of organs which have separate functions but are dependent on each other : a living person, plant, or animal.
What is DNA?
Atoms can bonding together forming molecules.
What are species?
A biological species is a group of organisms that can reproduce with one another in nature and produce fertile offspring.
What kind of life lives in each biosphere?
Land- Lions, Elephants, Zebra
Ocean- Shark, Squid and Dauphin
River- Salmon, Frogs and Tilapa
An __________ is the community of living things in an area, along with nonliving features of the environment that support the living community.
Ecosystem
Tell me how a squirrel benefits from a oak tree
A oak tree produces acorns and the squirrel eats it. Including the squirrel uses the leafs that fall off the tree to nest for the winter time and the squirrel uses the oak tree for a home.
the basic blocks of all materials both living and nonliving

5,000
100,000
8,600
30,000
100,000
280,000 and 1,000,000
Signs of life at the global scale
What thrives in the ecosystem community.
Plants, squirrels and other animals along with microscopic forms of life such as bacteria.
Microscopic organisms is
When soil are decomposing (breaking down) the leaf litter and other wastes on the woodland floor.
DNA is the chemically responsible of what?
Inheritance and passing on traits from parent organisms to their offspring.
Define Unicellular and give an example of what it doesn't have.
Unicellular is the cell entire body consist of just a single cell
Example- an cell that lacks a nuclei and the DNA is not separated from the rest of the cell
What do people see in space?
You can see the evidence of life and the dark green regions of forests on the continents.
Woodlands nonliving features include.
They include sunlight, water, air and soil upon the living things.
Cells are the life basic units of structure and function.
What does DNA gives instructions to cell for
to make all the other molecules it needs to function
What is a Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cell?
Prokaryotic cells are cells without a nucleus.Eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a nucleus.
Bonus Points- What forest is the called he earth lungs?
Amazon forest
All earth ecosystems combined make up what?
The Biosphere
A. is the microscope that show the different cells in the cross section of a leaf.
B. Is a computer model rep resection the molecular structure of DNA within a cell's nucleus.
What is the definition of genes?
DNA molecules are units of inherited information
Define a multicellular organism?
Multicellular organisms are composed of more than one cell, with groups of cells differentiating to take on specialized functions.
Example: In humans, cells differentiate early in development to become nerve cells, skin cells, muscle cells, blood cells, and other types of cells.
