Microscopes/Lab Basics
This is used when first examining a microscope slide
What is the low power objective?
The science of classifying living organisms
What is taxonomy?
location of the cell membrane in plant cells
What is just inside the cell wall?
a pea plant
What is an example of a complete flower?
the perch has this type of circulatory system
What is a closed circulatory system?
these organisms have free-floating DNA
What are Bacteria?
unicellular fungi
What are yeast cells?
vascular plants are divided into these two groups: one group that only has one cotyledon and another that has 2 cotyledons
What are monocots and dicots?
This is done to avoid fingerprints on a specimen slide
What is holding the slide by its edges?
The kingdom, Phyla, and Class of grasshoppers
What is the Kingdom Animalia, Phyla Arthropoda, Class Insecta?
the site of photosynthesis in a plant cell
What is the chloroplast?
classifications of plants indicating seed-bearing flowering plants and non-flowering plants
What are angiosperms and gymnosperms?
"blood" flows freely through the body cavity
What is an open circulatory system?
bacteria are classified by whether or not they need oxygen
What are aerobic and anaerobic bacteria?
this is where organisms are classified if they do not fit anywhere else
What is the Kingdom Protista?
contains food for the emerging plant
What is the cotyledon?
the total magnification of the microscope when the ocular of a microscope is 10X and the objective is set at 33X, what is
What is 330X?
the kingdom, class, and phyla of crayfish
What is Kingdom Animalia, Phyla Arthropoda, Class Crustaceans?
it allows some things to pass through while not allowing others
What is a semipermeable cell membrane?
this is what we call plants because they make their own food and what we call animals because they do not make their own food
What are autotrophs and heterotrophs?
the organism that we dissected that has 3 body segments
What is the grasshopper?
the domains of Eubacteria (bacteria) and Archaea are considered this type of organism because they have no nucleus or membrane-bound organelles
What are prokaryotes?
two things that are found in plant cells but not in animal cells
What are cell walls, chloroplasts, and large central vacuoles?
tubes that carry "food" and tubes that carry water throughout a plant's vascular system
What are phloem and xylem?
A drawing in which all items clearly labeled with the title at the top and the magnification in the lower right corner.
What is a scientific drawing?
the Kingdom, Phyla, and Class of the Perch

the process of cells reproducing and replacing
What is mitosis?
the main purpose of cytoplasm in the cell
What is responsible for allowing things to move around inside the cell?
Characteristics of arthropods
What are jointed legs, segmented bodies, exoskeletons, ventral nerve cords, and brains?
unicellular fungi
What is yeast?
the type of molecule in the cell membrane that allows certain things to enter or exit a cell
What are proteins?
characteristics of monocots
What is one cotyledon, parallel veins in the leaves, fibrous roots, and randomly placed vascular bundles in the stems?
This is used when a quick, temporary slide is needed to allow visualization of live specimens and movement
What is a wet mount?
the seven levels in taxonomy that classify organisms
What is Kingdom, Phyla, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species?
the four stages of mitosis in order
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase?
four things needed to be considered a complete flower
What are stamens, pistils, sepals, petals?
has 4 pairs of walking legs and a green gland,

the three classes of fungi
What are mold, yeast, and mushrooms?
the chemical formula for photosynthesis
What is 6CO2 + 6H2o = C6H12O6 + 6O2 ?
the female and male parts of a flower
What are the pistil (female) and a stamen (male-produces pollen)?
