Biotechnology
Genes are turned on all of the time (what is true or false?)
What is false?
An allele frequency in a population changes over time.
What is evolution?
The process that breaks down glucose into ATP (in the cells).
What is cellular respiration?
The largest ecological level of the biosphere? (example: desert)
What is biome?
A gene is turned on in a given cell type that produces keratin. (What is liver, heart, hair follicle, kidney?)
What is hair follicle?
Evolution occurs in these groupings (what is population community ecosystem individual?)
What is population?
These cells carry electrical signals and chemical neurotransmitters
What is a neuron?
Sea otters eat this creature. When sea others were overhunted this creature reproduced out of control and damaged habitat.
What is the sea urchin?
When cells become specialized, cells need to control the production of proteins coded for in their DNA. (Is it gene control, gene expression, gene destruction)
What is gene expression?
The type of natural selection that occurs when the extreme traits (ex: tall and short) are favored. What is disruptive, stabilizing or direction selection?
What is disruptive selection?
Myosin heads attach to and move along actin-binding sites occurs in this human tissue type so as to allow movement and contraction such as walking or picking up a heavy object.
What is muscle?
Water air and soil are all nonliving. They are this type of factor.
What is abiotic?
An example of a gene that is inserted into a bacterium so that it can produce a lot of protein that can later be used as medication for a patient. (What is a gene for insulin, collagen, chocolate?)
What is insulin?
A bat wing, an alligator leg, and a human arm are all consider this in terms of the theory of evolution. (What are homologous analogous or divergent structures?
What are homologous structures?
Humans live in this stage as their cells contain DNA from both parents. While plants only spend part of the time in this phase. (What is diploid or haploid?
What is diploid?
An animal in Idaho that is at the top of the trophic level (the level with the least amount o energy). Any top Idaho predator.
What is wolf, bear, wolverine etc?
Transcription, translation and the production of a protein.
What is gene expression?
The domain in which cells contain membrane bound organelles such as chloroplasts.
What is Eukarya?
This body system has skin, lymph nodes, white blood cells, and spleen. And protects the body from illness.
What is the immune system?
An important environmental topic that is currently affecting all life on earth and is supported by sound scientific data.
What is climate change or global warming?
