Contrast Accurate vs Precise 

Accuracy is how close you are to the correct answer, and precision is how specific the answer is. it is also how frequently you get that answer

What properties of water allow for Life to exist below a frozen surface 

1) Adhesion 2) Cohesion 3)Terrific Solvent 4) High specific heat

High Specific Heat. Takes a lot of energy to warm or cool water

200

Which Macromolecule makes up the majority of the cell membrane 

Lipids ( more specifically phospholipids)

Compare and Contrast Inference vs observation 

Observation is a fact made from using one of the 5 senses 


Inference is a guess using the information from an observation

You notice its wet outside and decide that it rained while you were sleeping. What is that? 

A) Observation   B) Inference 

Inference.... you are guessing that it rained you do not know that for 100%

Why does oil and water not mix

Oil is hydrophobic and a nonpolar substance 

Water is a polar substance  (Polar and Nonpolar does not mix)

List and Describe 3 qualities of water

1) Cohesion/Adhesion : The ability for water to stick to its self or other objects

2)High Solubility: Water is the universal solvent, dissolves all polar substances 

3)High Specific Heat:heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount  

4) Surface tension: tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer 

500

List monomers and polymers for each macromolecule 

Carbs: Monosaccharides and Polysaccharides

Lipids: Fatty acids and Triglycerides

Proteins: Amino Acids and Polypeptides

Nucleic acids: Nucleotides and Nucleic Acids

Difference between  Technological design and Scientific investigation 

Technological Design is in the Creation and Application and Technology 

Scientific Investigation is about the steps of testing and creating experiments and research activities
