Classification - Part 2
Don't know what to call this :)
The Origin of Life
100
This idea that living things arise fron a non-living source was proven to be mistaken.
What is spontaneous generation?
100
This scientific study of how living things are classified makes organisms easier to study.
What is toxonomy?
100
Molten rock and hot gases, as well as a cow's intestines are just a few locations where organisms in the domain can be found.
What is archaea?
100
This kingdom in domain eukarya contain organisms that are mostly multicellular, found everywhere on land, and a few in fresh water are heterotrophic.
What are fungi?
100
Evidence suggests that the earliest life forms appeared on Earth this long ago.
What is 3.5-4.0 billion years ago?
200
This type of experiment is when a scientist carries out two tests that are identical in every respect except for one factor.
What is a controlled experiment?
200
Linnaeus developed this two-part naming system for each organism.
What is binomial nomenclature?
200
This domain contains a unicellular prokaryotic organism that is sometimes harmful.
What is bacteria?
200
What is the address, user name, and password to access the on-line textbook?
What is www.pearsonsuccessnet.com, science65rocks, and science?
200
Early life forms probably resembled this domain because of the extremem environment of ancient Earth.
What is archaea?
300
This was the manipulated variable in Redi's controlled experiment.
What are two jars; one covered and one not?
300
This classification grouping contains similar, closely related organisms.
What is Genus?
300
All known organisms belong to one of these domains.
What is bacteria, archaea, and eukarya?
300
This kingdom contains some heterotrophic and some autotrophic organisms that are mostly unicellular prokaryotes that cannot be classified as the remaining kingdoms.
What is the protist kingdom?
300
What is the manipulated variable in the bread experiment?
What is one wet bread and one dry bread?
400
Living things must satisfy these basic needs for survival.
What is food, water, living space, and homeostasis?
400
This classification grouping contains similar organisms that can mate with each other and produce offspring that can also mate and repoduce.
What is species?
400
This British naturalist published the this theory about how a species can gradually change over time.
Who is Darwin and evolution?

500
This property of water makes it vital to all living things.
What is the ability to dissolve more chemicals than any other substance on Earth?
500
This method is a useful tool for determining the identity of an organsim.
What is a taxonomic key?
500
Today, scientists rely mainly on this to determine the evolutionary history of a species.
What is the chemical make-up of an organism's cells?
500
While bacteria and archaea are similar in some ways, these important differences are what separates them.
What is their difference in structure and chemical make-up of cells?
500
These gases were most likely found in ancient Earth's atmosphere.
What is nitrogen, water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane?
