What are the 5 kingdoms of living organisms?
Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plants, Animals

Name the structure that protects a bacterial cell.
Cell wall
100
Which kingdom of living organisms does bacteria belong to?
Monera
100
Which kingdom of living organisms does yeast belong to?
Fungi
100
Name 4 types of vegetative propagation.
Cuttings, layering, through tubers, through bulbs
200
Name two important ways asexual reproduction is different from sexual reproduction.
Asexual reproduction only involves one parent. The offspring is identical to the parent.
200
What is the function of the cytoplasmic membrane of a cell?
Cytoplasmic membrane controls what goes in and out of the cell.
200
What feature is unique to living organisms in the Monera kingdom?
The cells do not have a nucleus.
200
What is the process of asexual reproduction of yeast called?
Budding
200
Describe the process of reproduction through cuttings.
Parts are cut off of parent plant. The cutting is replanted. New roots and leaves grow from the cutting.
300
What are the two ways living organisms obtain energy?
1) Get energy from the sun. 2) Get energy from eating/congesting other organisms.
300
What is the function of the DNA in a cell?
DNA holds instruction for how cells should develop and function.
300
What is the process of asexual reproduction of bacteria called?
Binary fission
300
What is yeast used to make?
Bread and alcohol
300
What is a tuber? Give an example of a tuber.
A tuber is thickened underground part of a stem. An example of a tuber would be a potato.
400
Name 4 examples of plants that reproduce by vegetative propagation we discussed in class.
Pineapples, strawberries, potatoes, onions, bananas.
400
What is the function of the mitochondria in a cell?
Energy production
400
Name the structure that helps a bacterial cell with movement.
Flagella

Why does bread have little bubbles in it?
When yeast feeds on sugar, it produces carbon dioxide (CO2) which makes the air bubbles in bread.
400
Draw the process of layering. Give an example of a plant that reproduces by layering.
A shoot of a parent plant is bent until it is covered by soil; tip of shoot remains above ground. New roots and stems grow. An example would be strawberries.

Within your group, label all the parts of a microscope.
Eyepiece, tube, arm, revolving nosepiece, objective lenses (4x, 10x, 40x), stage clips, stage, coarse focus, fine focus, mirror, base.
500
When a cell is described to be prokaryotic, what does that mean? Give an example of a prokaryotic cell.
Prokaryotic means no nucleus. An example of a prokaryotic cell is any bacterial cell (e.g. E. coli).
500
Within your group, draw and label the steps of asexual reproduction of a bacteria cell.
1. Cell replicates DNA 2. Cytoplasmic membrane lengthens, separating the DNA 3. A cross wall forms; membrane folds in 4. Cross wall forms completely 5. Daughter cells formed

Within your group, draw and label the steps of asexual reproduction of yeast.
1) The yeast cell puts out a small bud from one side of itself. It moves a piece of its nucleus into it. 2) The original nucleus divides into two nuclei. 3) The yeast cell gradually pinches off the bud to make a new, smaller yeast cell.

Describe the process of reproduction through bulbs.
A bulb forms a bulbil (a tiny, secondary bulb). A bulbil becomes an offset when it grows to its full size. Offset is removed and planted to produce a new plant.
