what 2 parts make up a fungus?


how do fungi reproduce?

mycelium and fruiting body


spores

100

what domain is plantae in?


what is Sphagnum moss and how was it used during war?

eukarya


Sphagnum moss can hold up to 20 times its weight in water. It releases tannins which creates an acidic environment. In WWI, it was used as a sponge to soak up blood.

eukaryote

prokaryotes

autotroph

heterotrophs

mixotrophs

invasive species

nucleus

no nucleus

L.O. that makes their own food

L.O. that can't make their own food and rely on other organisms

both heterotrophs and autotrophs

a foreign species that invades/attacks something

who disproved spontaneous generation?


coined the term cells


believed in the "great chain of being"

Francesco Redi


Robert Hooke


Aristotle

What are the different parts of the skull and what do they do?

What are the 8 levels of classification

1) Cranium - top part of skull, holds the brain. 2) Mandible - Bottom part of skull. 3) Orbits - eye sockets 4) Rostrum - nose/snout 5) Teeth - eating 6) Auditory Bullae - Hearing

Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species

what is a pioneer species?


what is mycorrhizal fungi?

any species that can colonize new/lifeless land and prepare the environment for future species


tree roots + fungi mycelium = symbiotic

ex) truffles, fairy rings, death cap

200

What are rhizoids in moss? Why are they not REAL roots?


How are bogs able to preserve things (like bodies) so well?

Rhizoids anchor moss into place and they are non-vascular so they are not true roots.


The sphagnum moss releases tannins which makes the body leathery and it makes the water acidic so bacteria can't break things down.

200

spontaneous generation

pathogen

extremophile

key stone species

spore

homeostasis

L.O. can come from nonliving things

a disease-causing agent

an organism that can live in extreme conditions

a species that helps hold an ecosystem together

some plants, all fungi and fungi-like protists use spores

maintain stable internal conditions

discovered the philosopher's stone 


hunted electric eels with horses   


climbed tree in storm

Albertus Magnus


Alexander Von Humbolt


John Muir

What are the 6 characteristics of life?


What are the 4 requirements for life?

Use energy, are made of cells, reproduce or is a product of reproduction, are made of 6 common elements, react to stimulus, grow and develop.

Need water, need space, need energy, need to maintain homeostasis.

300

what are the 5 groups of fungi we've learned and one fact about each?


draw and label a mushroom



Zygomycota- fuzzy, Ascomycota- largest fungi phylum, Basidiomycota- spores look like clubs, Chytridiomycota-some species target amphibians, fungi imperfeci- don't reproduce sexually

300

Why do bryophytes and pteridophytes need water to reproduce?


What is alternation of generations and the two stages?

They need water to move around and mix.


It is when every plant goes through two stages and they are gameophyte and sporophyte.

300

capsid 

lyse

haploid

vascular tissues

diploid

aerobic

protective protein coat/ disguise

when a cell membrane explodes

half the genetic code

tube like structures in vascular plants

the full genetic code

don't need oxygen

father wanted him to be a physician, but he chose to be a botanist


came up with natural selection


made his own microscope, studied tooth scrapings

Carl Linnaeus


Charles Darwin


Antonie Von Leeuwenhoek 

300

What are the 5 types of teeth and what do they do?

How is a binomial written?

Incisor - cuts food / grooming. Canine - pins food in place. Premolar - always in front of molar, tear/grind. Molar - pulverizes, crushes. Carnassial - meat shears.

Genus (is capitalized), species (lower case), underline if written, italicized if typed.

400

what is an example of fungi imperfecti?


why is the exotic pet trade a problem?

Penicillium camemberti


fungi spreads a messes up the frog's skin which leads to suffocation

400

What are the 3 Pterdophytes we learned about?


How do bogs form?


Where do plants get their mass from, and what was Jan Van Helmont's experiment?

Lycophyta = "club moss", Sphenophyta = "horse tail or puzzle grass", Monilophyta = "ferns"

Dead plant matter called peat builds up and covers the water to make a bog.

They get their mass from carbon dioxide in the air, his experiment was: 200 lbs of soil, planted 5 lb tree in it, grew for 5 yrs, tree weighted 169 lbs, soil lost 2 oz.

400

diffusion

osmosis

passive transport

active transport

virulent

vaccine

molecules move from high concentration to low concentration

diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane

moving materials without energy

moving materials with energy

particularly severe or harmful in its effects

modified/killed version of a virus

CARL LINNAEUS - what was he most famous for? what is it called?


ARISTOTLE- what's he known as? what did he believe in? what are the 3 types of soul? 

he invented our modern system of naming. binomial nomenclature


father of biology. spontaneous generation. vegetative (plants), sensitive (animals), rational (humans)

400

Why do we use Latin for the naming system?


What are the different shapes of a virus?

it's "dead" (can't change) traditional language for scholars, everyone knew it.


Filamentous, Head & Tail, Enveloped, Isometric

_______ + fungi = _______ (not a plant)


the fungi give the L.O. ______. the _______ give the L.O. nutrients

algae     lichen


water and nutrients    algea

What are the characteristics of a plant?


Draw a diagram of the Fern's life cycle.


What is the equation we learned for photosynthesis and what are the two steps?

All are eukaryotic, all are multicellular, virtually all photosynthesis, virtually all have cell walls and cell membrane, all have specialized tissues.


Sun + CO2 + H2O = O2 + Glucose.  The two steps are 1) light dependent reaction 2) cellular respiration.
