A prediction about a problem that can be
tested = HYPOTHESIS
A standard for comparison in an experiment
= CONTROL
An explanation backed by results from
repeated tests or experiments
= THEORY
Problem-solving strategies used by scientists
= SCIENTIFIC METHOD
A changeable factor in an experiment
= VARIABLE
First step in scientific method
= PROBLEM
Second step in scientific method
= HYPOTHESIS
Third step in scientific method
= EXPERIMENT OR TEST
Fourth step in scientific method
= ANALYZE RESULTS
Last step in scientific method
= CONCLUSION
The passing of traits from parents to offspring
= HEREDITY
The maintenance of constant internal
conditions in spite of changes in the
environment = HOMEOSTASIS
Stands for the traits of all living things
= CRIMEHH
The study of life
= BIOLOGY
Symbols for the elements found in all living
things = CHOPS
Process by which organisms make more of
their own kind
REPRODUCTION
Feed directly on producers
HERBIVORES
Insects pollinating flowers is an example of
this form of symbiosis
MUTUALISM
Feeds on herbivores
CARNIVORES
Feeding level
TROPIC LEVEL
The study of the interaction of organisms with
each other and their environment
= ECOLOGY
An organism’s role in its environment
= NICHE
The living things interacting in a habitat
=COMMUNITY
The living things interacting with each other
and their environment
= ECOSYSTEM
The living part of earth
= BIOSPHERE
A group of organisms of the same type
(species) living in the same geographic area
=POPULATION
A sketch that shows all the feeding
relationships in a community
= FOOD WEB
When an organism hunts, kills and eats its
prey.
= PREDATOR
A tick on a deer is an example.
=PARISITISM
Type of symbiosis where one organism
benefits and the other is neither helped nor
harmed.
=COMMENSALISMS
Nonliving factors in a habitat
= ABIOTIC FACTORS
Living factors in a habitat
= BIOTIC FACTORS
Type of succession that is faster because soil
already exists
= SECONDARY SUCCESSION
Cleans up the cell
LYSOSOMES
Trophic level that recycles nutrients
= DECOMPOSERS
Type of succession that starts with bare rock
= PRIMARY SUCCESSION
Organisms that eat plants and animals
OMNIVORES
Changes in plant and animal life in an
ecosystem
SUCCESSION
2 Microscope parts that are used to carry it.
ARM AND BASE
Part of the microscope that regulates how
much light enters.
DIAGPHRAM
What the slide is set on.
STAGE
Type of scope with two eye pieces
STEREOMICROSCOPE
How many times bigger an object appears
MAGNIFICATION
Seeing many different levels of an object with
changes to the fine focus.
DEPTH OF FIELD
Provides structure to plant cells
CELL WALL
Contains the DNA
NUCLEUS
Controls the movement of things into and out
of the cell
PLASMSA MEMBRANE
Provide energy for the cell
MITOCHONDRIA
Membranes that provide a passageway for
proteins
ER
Jelly-like substance inside the cell
CYTOPLASM
Green organelle that is the site of
photosynthesis
CHLOROPLAST
Credited with naming cells
HOOKE
Organelle that packages proteins, found on
rough ER
GOLGI APPARATUS
This will be bigger on low power than high
power.
FIELD OF VIEW
All living things are made of cells
Cells are the basic unit of structure and
function.
Cells come from existing cells.
CELL THEORY
How objects move when looking through a
compound microscope
OPPOSITE DIRECTION
All the chemical processes taking place in a
cell
METABOLISM
Used to bring the object into sharp view.
FINE FOCUS
Basic unit of heredity
GENE
Used to find an object
COURSE FOCUS
Store water for the cell
VACUOLE
How clear an object appears
RESOLUTION
Mini-organ
ORGANELLE
Assembles the proteins in the cell
RIBOSOMES
The genetic code for a cell, composed of a
nucleic acid.
DNA
Basic cell type that does not have a nucleus or
membrane-bound organelles
PROKARYOTE
Causes materials to move across the cell
membrane IF the membrane is permeable to
it
CONCENTRATION GRADIENT
Type of cell that has a cell wall, chloroplasts
and large central vacuole
PLANT
Study of the number and types of organisms
living in a habitat
BIOSURVEY
Basic type of cell that has a nucleus and
membrane-bound organelles
EUKARYOTE
Having a large variety of organisms in a
community present in large numbers.
BIODIVERISTY
These are always single-celled organisms that
are small and do not have a nucleus
BACTERIA
Changes in inherited traits over time in a
population.
EVOLUTION
