What are specialized cells? and where are they found?

Cells that perform a specific function. 

Only found in MULTICELLULAR organisms

100

The process of change over time is called

Evolution

What are four basic needs all living things need to have in order to survive?

FOOD, WATER, LIVING SPACE, HOMEOSTASIS (STABLE INTERNAL CONDITIONS)

200

The first word in an organism’s scientific name is always capitalized and is its

Genus

Acts as storage for the cell, especially for water.  In the plant cell it is very large.

Vacuole

The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight and uses it to make food is called?

photosynthesis

The maintenance of stable internal conditions is called

Homeostasis

The movement of dissolved materials across a cell membrane without using the cell’s energy is called

passive transport

Evidence for Evolution

Fossil record

The mistaken idea that living things can arise from nonliving things is called?

Spontaneous Generation

400

What was Darwin’s contribution to CLASSIFICATION?

The Theory of Evolution

  2. CELLS ARE THE BASIC UNIT OF STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION IN LIVING THINGS.

  3. ALL CELLS ARE PRODUCED FROM OTHER CELLS

Cell Theory

Why is photosynthesis important for heterotrophs?

Oxygen is released into the air and it creates food that they can eat

500

What are organs or skeletal elements of organisms that show connection to a common ancestor?


Homologous structures
