1.6 Organization Of Living Things
What is a Cell?
The basic unit of structure and function in all living things.
Who proposed The Theory Of Evolution?
Charles Darwin.
Where are Organic Compounds usually found?
They are mostly found in living organisms and include carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.
What are Monomers?
Monosaccharides, such as glucose serve as teh building blocks of carbohydrates.
What are Organic Compounds made of?
They are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
What are Tissues?
Groups of similar cells that perform a specific function.
What is The Theory Of Evolution?
The theory states that inherited traits change over time through natural selection.
What are Carbohydrates?
Provided energy and structural support.
How many Amino Acid types are there?
There are 20 different types.
What is the classification of Carbohydrates?
They include dimple sugars (Monosaccharides) and complex carbohydrates (Disaccharides and Polysaccharides)
What is a Organ and Organ Systems?
Organ System= Groups of organs that collaborate to perform complex functions, leading to the formation of an organism.
What are Organism with Beneficial Traits more likely to do?
They are more likely to survive and reproduce, inc creasing the frequency of those traits in future generations.
What are Proteins?
Composed of amino acids, they perform a variety of functions in living organisms.
What do the types of Amino Acids form?
They form protein.
What is Carbohydrates formula?
CH2O
What is Population?
A group of organisms of the same species in a specific area.
What are Fossils?
They provide historical evidence of past life forms and their evolution over time.
Carbohydrates Examples?
Glucose and Cellulose.
What do Proteins play roles in?
Proteins play roles in biological processes including catalyzing reactions (Enzymes) providing structure, and facilitating communication within and between cells
What is a Community?
All populations living together in a defined area, interacting with one another.
What do Genetic Studies show?
They reveal the relationships between different species and their common ancestors.
What is the formula for Glucose?
Glucose=C6H12O6
