Cells
This organelle holds DNA
What is the nucleus?
This body system is responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, and wastes throughout the body.
What is the circulatory system?
A trait that is hidden when a dominant allele is present is called this type of trait.
What is a recessive trait?
This is the term for all the populations of different species living together in the same area.
What is a community?
This molecule is made of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base, and is the basic building block of DNA.
Ribosomes are responsible for making these important molecules used for growth and repair.
Proteins
This type of muscle is found in the heart and works involuntarily.
If a parent has the genotype Bb and another parent also has the genotype Bb, what is the probability their child will have the genotype bb?
What is 25%
This is the role or job an organism has in its ecosystem, including what it eats and how it survives.
What is an ecological niche?
This type of evidence for evolution compares the early developmental stages of different organisms.
What is embryology?
This organelle in plant cells uses sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food for the cell.
What is the chloroplast?
The real name for the bone that makes the shoulder blade.
What is the scapula?
In pea plants, purple flowers (P) are dominant over white flowers (p). What are the possible genotypes of a purple-flowered plant?
What are PP and Pp?
This type of relationship occurs when one organism benefits and the other is harmed.
What is parasitism?
This biome has cold temperatures, permafrost, and low-growing plants like mosses and lichens.
What is the tundra?
This is the phase of mitosis where chromosomes separate from eachother.
What is the anaphase?
This blood vessel carries oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to the body.
A heterozygous tall plant (Tt) is crossed with a short plant (tt). What percentage of offspring are expected to be short?
What is 50%?
This type of succession occurs in an area where no soil previously existed, such as after a volcanic eruption.
What is primary succession?
What are lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids?
This organelle modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids into vesicles so they can be transported to other parts of the cell or outside the cell.
These tiny air sacs in the lungs are where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged with the blood.
What are alveoli?
In guinea pigs, black fur (B) is dominant over white fur (b). Two black guinea pigs produce one white offspring. What must the genotypes of the two parents be?
What is Bb and Bb?
This is the amount of energy that goes up each trophic level in an energy pyramid.
What is 10%
This evolutionary mechanism occurs when a small group of individuals becomes isolated from the main population and start a new population.
What is the founder effect?
