What are the Important Polysaccharides?
Glycogen,Starch,Cellulose
What are cells?
Cells are the basic units of life
All living organisms are made of cells
Unicellular: Living things made of a single cell
Multicellular: Living things made up of many cells
What are the types of symbiotic relationships?
mutualism, commensalism, parasitism
What is Biotechnology?
Refers to any technology used to change the genetic makeup of living things to make products.
What is Taxonomy?
Is the branch of biology that’s concerned with making these groups.
What are Important Monosaccharides?
Simple sugars, Galactose, Glucose, Fructose
Why do we need different types of cells?
We are large!
We need different types of cells to carry out different jobs throughout our bodies
Because they do special jobs they need different shapes and structures to make them more successful
What does parasitism symbolic relationship mean?
One organism benefits and one is harmed.
What are some examples of Biotechnology?
Production of antibiotics, vaccines, synthetic hormones, biofuels, food production
Why is Taxonomy Important?
We need a consistent way to name and organize new and existing organisms.
What are the elements of nucleic acids?
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus
What is an organelle?
An organelle is a tiny part of a cell that carries out a specific function.
They work together just as your organs work together.
What are some types of learning in Animal Behavior?
Habituation, Conditioning, Trail and error learning, Insight learning
What is Genetic engineering?
The direct manipulation of an organism genome using biotechnology.
What are the 8 levels of Taxonomy?
What are the 2 types of Nucleic Acids?
Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) and Ribonucleic Acid (RNA)
What are some Type of organelles?
Nucleus, Cytoplasm, Mitochondria, Ribosomes, Cell/Plasma membrane, Vacuole, Lysosome.
What is conditioning?
Making an association between two stimuli.
How is the DNA separated?
The DNA is cut with the restriction enzymes.
Then, it is loaded into the gel and hooked up to an electrical source.
The negative electrical source repels the negative DNA.
DNA is separated by size!
Small fragments move further down the gel.
What is a Cladograms?
A type of phylogenetic tree that compares organisms based on their shared characteristics.
What Factors that affect enzymes?
Extreme Temperature, pH,Salinity,Concentration
What are Stem cells?
They are cells that can become almost any body part and continually reproduce.
What are some animal behavior?
Migration, Taxis, Estivation and Hibernation, Imprinting, Courtship, Territoriality
What ares some types of Genetic Engineering
Personal genome sequencing, Gene cloning and bacterial transformation, Gene therapy and CRISPR, stem cells, Selective breeding, Hybridization
What is a bryophyte?
A group of plant species that reproduce via spores rather than flowers or seeds.
