These variables stay constant throughout the experiment
What are controlled variables?
200
The number of chromosomes a fruit fly would have after meiosis, if a fruit fly has 8 chromosomes in it's body cells.
What is 4 chromosomes (half the original number)?
200
These changes are responsible for variations in the population.
What are mutations?
200
In DNA, Adenine binds with this nitrogen base.
What is Thymine?

300
The primary source of energy for an ecosystem.
What is the sun?

Darwin's theory of evolution, that with enough time a population is modified to produce a new species.
What is natural selection?
300
The building blocks of proteins.
What are amino acids?

Glycolysis is the breakdown of this molecule during cellular respiration.
What is Glucose?
400
This is the part of the experiment that is used for comparison.
What is the control group?
400
The waste products of cellular respiration (must name both correctly)
What are Carbon dioxide and Water?
400
Why are organisms in the same niche in competition?
What are Limited Resources (compete for food, shelter, reproduction, and escape from predation)?
400
DNA is made of these subunits.
What are nucleotides?
400
How the pancreas regulates blood glucose levels.
What is releasing hormones?
Hormones involved:
-Insulin to bring levels down
-Glucagon to bring levels up
500
This rejects or accepts the hypothesis based on the data.
What is the conclusion?
500
The necessity of decomposers in an ecosystem.
What recycles animal waste, inorganic substances, and/or nutrients back to the soil (for plants to absorb)?
500
The reason why the frequency of an allele for stronger wing muscles increase in a bat population.
What is 'more likely to survive and reproduce'?
(Bats with the stronger wing trait are more likely to survive and reproduce, when completing for food and avoiding predators.)
