Evolution
What is evolution?
These three ingredients are required for photosynthesis.
What are light (energy), water, and carbon dioxide?
This organelle is responsible for controlling the functions of the cell?
What is the nucleus?
I am non-living and attack cells around me.
What is a virus?
The "powerhouse" organelle that generates most of the cell's energy.
What are mitochondria?
The 5 Characteristics all living things have in common.
What are Cells, Metabolism (Energy Use), Homeostasis, Reproduction and DNA?
These two ingredients are required for cellular respiration.
What are oxygen and sugar?
This organelle is only present in plant and bacteria cells.
What is a cell wall?
Bacteria can be in this small, round shape.
What is cocci?
Mitosis and Meiosis are two cell reproductive processes, but they differ in a vital way.
What is Mitosis creates identical cells by dividing and Meiosis creates sperm and egg cells to create genetic variation?
The random appearance of a new trait in an organism causing a sometimes drastic ship in the organism.
What is Mutation?
This kind of cell does not have a cell wall.
What is an animal cell?
This organelle is the site of photosynthesis.
What is the chloroplast?
Bacteria can be found in this rod-like shape.
What is bacilli?
Large molecules crossing the membrane via transport proteins use this type of movement.
What are facilitated diffusion/active transport?
The scientist and process that explains how species change over time as advantageous, random variations help organisms better adapt and survive to reproduce, leading to the diversity of life from common ancestors
Who is Charles Darwin and what is natural selection?
This kind of cell uses a flagella to motor itself around.
What is a bacterium?
An infected cell is unable to package and sort proteins. This organelle must be damaged.
What is the Golgi apparatus?
These are three reasons we know viruses are not alive.
What are: 1. They are not made of cells and don't have cell parts. 2. They need a host in order to reproduce. 3. They do not grow and develop. 4. They do not respond to their environment.
The process of water moving across a semipermeable membrane.
What is osmosis?
Carl Linaeus created a system to classify all life within 8 categories that get more specific with each lower level.
What are Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species?
Louis Pasteur disproved spontaneous generation with his broth experiment, thereby proving this axiom of cell theory.
What is all cell come from existing cells?
This organelle is present in plant cells, animal cells, and bacteria cells.
What are ribosomes?
These are the 6 steps of virus reproduction.
What are:
1. Attaches to a host cell
2. Releases its DNA into the host
3. DNA combines with host DNA
4. Host copies the viral DNA thinking that it is its own.
5. The proteins made by the viral DNA begin to assemble into new viruses.
6. The new viruses break out of the host, killing it in the process.
White blood cells engulfing germs is an example of this engulfing process.
What is endocytosis?
