What is the basic unit of life?

Cells

200

Long term relationship where one organism benefits and the other organism is hurt or harmed.

Parasitism

200

What type of adaptation is it when an organisms blends into the environment to avoid predators?

Camoflauge

200

What type of relationship is it when organisms are fighting for resources. 

Competition

What happens during transcription?

tRNA carries amino acids to the mRNA on the ribosome. The amino acids join together to form a polypeptide chain.

200

The process by which water moves through the cell membrane to balance out a high concentration of solutes.

osmosis

300

How much energy is passed on from one trophic level to the next? 

10%

300

movement of ions, and molecules across cell membranes without the need for energy input

passive transport (diffusion, facilitated diffusion, osmosis) 

300

What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis? Give AT LEAST 3 differences. 

Mitosis - 1 cell division, daughter cells are identical, daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as parents, no crossing over, somatic cells, 

Meiosis - 2 cell divisions, daughter cells are unique, half as many chromosomes as parents, crossing over, gametes (sperm and egg)

300

What happens when an enzyme is exposed to temperatures high above its optimal range?

the enzyme becomes denatured

300

What type of respiration produces the most ATP?

Aerobic Respiration

400

The legs of crocodiles and cats have similar bone structures and develop in a similar way which indicates a common ancestor.  What are these considered?

homologous structures

400

What is an enzyme? What do most enzyme names end in?

A protein that speeds up chemical reactions. -ose

400

If the producers contain 10,000 Kcal, then how much energy will the secondary consumers contain?

100 Kcal

400

Which type of movement across a cell's membrane requires energy supplied by ATP?

Active transport

400

What type of cell is a chloroplast found in?

Eukaryote; plant cell

500

What is the monomer of starch and glycogen (carbohydrates)

Monosaccharides (single sugars)

500

What is the difference between bottleneck effect and founder effect?

Bottleneck effect is a random shrinking of the population, often a natural disaster. Founder effect is when populations move. 

500

What is the Cellular Respiration equation?

C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36/38 ATP

(GO --> COW!)

500

What is the monomer of a nucleic acid? What are the three parts of this monomer?

Nucleotide - nitrogenous base, phosphate, sugar

500

What is the equation of photosythesis?

6CO2 + 6H2O + Sunlight ---> C6H12O6 + 6O2
