State the three fundamentals of the cell theory: i. ALL LIVING THINGS ARE MADE UP OF ONE OR MORE CELLS. ii. CELLS ARE THE BASIC UNIT OF STRUCTURE & FUNCTION IN AN ORGANISM. iii. CELLS ONLY COME FROM THE REPRODUCTION OF OTHER CELLS. 8. The two broadest types of cells are _PROKARYOTIC_ and _EUKARYOTIC_. 9. The differences between plant and animals cells are as follows: Plant Cells Animal Cells 10. -have CHLOROPLASTS -have no CHLOROPLASTS -have CELL WALL -have no CELL WALL -has large VACUOLE -has small VACUOLE -has no CENTRIOLOES -has CENTRIOLES ORGANELLE Cell Wall FUNCTION Provides structure & support for the cell. Protects the cell. Cell Membrane Allows certain things in & or out of the cell; selectively permeable Nucleus Control center of the cell. Stores the heredity information ;DNA Endoplasmic Reticulum Lysosome Moves molecules from one end of the cell to the other Vacuole Clean up crew. They contain digestive enzymes that break up molecules; old organelles & foreign substances Stores enzymes, metabolic waste, & water Chloroplast Converts energy from sunlight into chemical energy for the cell Mitochondria Ribosome Transforms energy from organic compounds (food) into ATP (chemical form of energy that the cell can use). Organizes the synthesis (putting together) of proteins Golgi Bodies Where substances are processed & packaged for export. Cytoplasm Region of the cell between the nucleus & cell membrane. Nuclear Envelope Allows certain things in and or out of the nucleus Centrioles They “tell” the organelles that are involved with cell division, where to go. Where ribosomes are synthesized and partially assembled. Nucleolus 11. The cell membrane is made of a ___lipid bilayer__ with proteins. 12. There are two types of movement in and out of a cell: PASSIVE TRANSPORT_: the movement of substances __THROUGH_ the cell membrane without any input of energy by the cell, molecules move __DOWN_ the concentration gradient (high to low concentration) _ACTIVE TRANSPORT: the movement of substances _THROUGH_ the cell membrane with input of energy by the cell, molecules move _UP_ the concentration gradient (low to high concentration) 13. The three types of passive transport are: _DIFFUSION, OSMOSIS, and _FACILITAED DIFFUSION. 14. The three types of active transport are: _ENDOCYTOSIS, EXOCYTOSIS, and _PROTEIN PUMP. 15. _DIFFUSION is the simplest form of passive transport. It is the movement of _MOLECULES from an area of _HIGH_ concentration to _LOW______ concentration. 16. _OSMOSIS_ is the movement of _WATER_ through a semi-permeable __MEMBRANE_ from an area of _HIGH_ concentration to _LOW_ concentration. 17. When comparing two solutions, they can be classified as either: _HYPOTONIC___: a solution that has a lower concentration of solute than another _ISOTONIC___: a solution that has an equal concentration of solute as another _HYPERTONIC__: a solution that has a higher concentration of solute than another 18. _FACILITATED DIFFUSION_ is the movement of molecules through the cell membrane through a protein. 19. _ENDOCYTOSIS_ is when a cell engulfs _NUTRIENTS_ in a vesicle made from the cell _MEMBRANE_ and _EXOCYTOSIS__ is when a vesicle from inside a cell fuses with cell _MEMBRANE_ and releases __WASTE__. CELL REPRODUCTION 20. The two types of cellular reproduction are: _BINARY FISSION____ & __MITOSIS________. MITOSIS___ is the process your “body” cells use to reproduce. This process is ASEXUAL / SEXUAL. 21. ____MEIOSIS__ is the reproduction of sex cells + fertilization is this process: ASEXUAL / SEXUAL.. 22. Another word for “body” cells is _____SOMATIC______ cells. 23. Skin cells, nerve cells, and blood cells, are DIPLOID / HAPLOID. This number is represented as 2n / n. 24.

DNA REPLICATION 38. DNA stands for _DEOXYRIBOSE NUCLEIC ACID_. 39. _WATSON_ and _CRICK__ are credited with the discovery of the structure of DNA, _ROSALIND FRANKLIN is not, even though it was her work that lead to the discovery. 40. DNA’s structure is a _DOUBLE HELIX__, which looks like a _SPIRAL___ staircase. It is then wound up tightly and held together by _PROTEINS___, this is called a _CHROMOSOME___. 41. The building block of DNA is the _NUCLEOTIDE__, which is composed of: a _SUGAR___, a __PHOSPHATE___ , and a _NITROGEN BASE _. 42. The four nitrogen bases of DNA are: _ADENINE _(_A_), _GUANINE__(_G_), _CYTOSINE_(_C_), and _THYMINE_(_T_). _A__ is properly paired with _T__ and _G__ is properly paired with _C__. 43. The 2 enzymes that help during DNA Replication and their functions are: _HELICASE: unzips the _DNA_ molecule _____________: Fills in the gaps at _______________ _POLYMERASE_: Bonds the complimentary _BASES 44. How DNA Replication occurs: First, the DNA is _UNZIPPED_ by helicase and the two strands are exposed. Then, free floating _NUCLEOTIDES_ come over and properly line up with their partner (_A with _T_, and _G_ with _C_). Next, polymerase _BONDS the paired _BASES_ together. This results in two _IDENTICAL daughter molecules of DNA, each with one _OLD____ strand and one _NEW_ strand. PROTEIN SYNTHESIS 45. A _SECTION__ of the DNA that gives the _CODE__ for one _PROTEIN__ is a gene. 46. RNA stands for _RIBOSE NUCLEIC ACID. 47. The four nitrogen bases of RNA are: _URACIL (_U_), _ADENINE_(_A_), _CYTOSINE_(_C_), and _GUANINE__(_G_). 48. The three types of RNA are: rRNA: makes up the _RIBOSOME__ mRNA: travels out of the _NUCLEUS___ and into the __CYTOPLASM__ tRNA: carries the _AMINO ACIDS_ to the mRNA going through the ribosome 49. Protein synthesis is composed of two parts: TRANSCRIPTION and _TRANSLATION. 50. How Protein Synthesis occurs: TRANSCRIPTION: The SYNTHESIS of mRNA from a DNA blueprint. This occurs in the NUCLEUS, then the mRNA travels out of the nucleus into the CYTOPLASM. TRANSLATION: The information in the mRNA is TRANSLATED by a ribosome (made of rRNA), who “reads” it. The TRANSFER RNA (tRNA) enters the ribosome to drop off an AMINO ACID. The amino acids bond TOGETHER into a chain. The CHAIN of amino acids exits the RIBOSOME & folds into a PROTEIN. 51. A protein is made up of 20 different kinds of AMINO ACIDS. GENETICS 52. The “Father of Genetics” is __GREGOR MENDEL__. He studied __PEA__ plants to understand genes. 53. The offspring of the P generation is the _F1___ generation. The offspring of the F1 generation is the _F2___ generation. 54.

When one trait is being looked at in a punnet square it is called a ____MONOHYBRID_____ cross, if two traits are examined it is called ____DIHYBRID__________ cross. For questions 29-32 use the following information: The trait for free ear lobes (E) is dominant to attached ear lobes (e). If a HETERZYGOUS person is crossed with a HOMOZYGOUS DOMINANT person: 61. What is the genotypic ratio? 2:2:0 62. What is the phenotypic ratio? 4:0 63.What percentage of the offspring would have attached ear lobes? 0% 64.What two genotypes would you have to cross to get a 50% likelihood that the offspring would have attached earlobes? HETEROZYGOUS X HOMOZYGOUS RECESSIVE For questions 65-67 use the following information: Hemophilia is a recessive sex-linked trait. 65. Draw the cross (punnett square) between a HOMOZYGOUS DOMINANT woman with a RECESSIVE male. XH XH XHXh XHXh Xh 66. What is the chance their daughter will have Hemophilia? XHY XHY 0% 67. What is the chance their son will have Hemophilia? Y 0% For questions 68-70 Match the explanation with the type of dominance: Complete Dominance (A) Incomplete Dominance (B) Codominance (C) 68. A dominant allele will always mask a recessive allele when paired together: ___A____ 69. When two dominants are paired and the phenotype shows both together but not as a blending: __C___ 70. A dominant allele does not mask the recessive allele, but blends with it when they are paired: _B_ EVOLUTION 71. Spallanzani and Pasteur disproved _SPONTANEOUS GENERATION_, which is the belief that living things arose from __NON-LIVING_________ things. 72. When a species has an inherited characteristic that _INCREASES___ it’s chance of surviving in an environment this is known as an _ADAPTATION_. There are 3 forms of this: A. Structural: the _FORM________ the organism takes _B._PHYSIOLOGICAL__: the _BIOCHEMICAL___ processes happening in an organism C.__BEHAVIORAL___: the innate __ACTIONS_____ an organism performs 73. Jean Baptiste de Lamarck hypothesized that “_ACQUIRED TRAITS” is how evolution occurred. Charles Darwin argued and hypothesized that is “_NATURAL SELECTION__.” _DARWIN__ was correct because a species come with _VARIED____ features and the environment _SELECTS__ the characteristic that is most suited, so the individuals with that characteristic will survive. 74. A particular parent isotope has a half-life of 15 years. If the organism originally had 40 million isotopes, how much will be left after 45 years? Show Work!!! 40/2 = 20 20/ 2 = 10 10/2 = 5 million parent isotopes left 75.You found a fossil and did tests on it to determine the amounts of the parent isotope and the daughter isotope. You found there were 3 atoms of the parent isotope and 21 atoms of the daughter isotope. The half-life for this isotope is 220 years. How old is your fossil and how many half-lives did it go through? Show Work!!! 3 + 21 = 24 24/2 = 12 12/2 = 6 6/2 = 3 (original amt) (after 1 half life) (after 2 half-lifes) (after 3 half-lifes) 3 x 220 = 660 years old 76.The 4 patterns of evolution are: Coevolution: when species are in a _DEPENDENT__ relationship on each other _DIVERGENT__ Evolution: when related species become more dissimilar Artificial Selection: when _UNNATURAL____ characteristics favored for breeding _CONVERGENT____ Evolution: when not closely related organisms become more similar 77. The 3 types of structures that are studied in evolution are: HOMOLOGOUS structures: there is evidence of a common ANCESTOR although the structure & its function are different Vestigial structures: the structure is _FUNCTIONLESS, but had an original purpose ANALOGOUS_ structures: structures are similar from adaptations due to an _ENVIORONMENTAL__change. CLASSIFICATION 78. _TAXONOMY__ is the branch of biology that identifies and names organisms 79.To write an organism’s scientific name in binomial nomenclature you must _CAPITALIZE_ the first word but not the _2ND________ and _ITALISIZE__ both words, or _UNDERLINE them if hand written. 80. The taxonomic levels from smallest to largest are: _SPECIES, GENUS, FAMILY, ORDER, CLASS, PHYLUM, KINGDOM, and DOMAIN_. Bacteria Archaea 81. The 3 domains are: Archaea The 6 kingdoms are: Bacteria Eukarya Animalia Plantae Fungi Protista 82. A _DICHOTOMOUS_is a set of statements that separate a group of organism into one of two different groups over and over again. 83. A _PHYLOGENETIC TREE is a visual image that shows the adaptation paths taken by several different organisms. 84. A _CLADOGRAM__ is a diagram that shows different common features of several organisms. ECOLOGY 85.

The Carbon Cycle includes: cellular respiration, __VOLCANIC________ eruptions, creation of _LIMESTONE____ from dissolved _CO2_____ in the ocean, __CONSUMPTION__ of carbohydrates (eating), the _DECAY_ of organic material, and the __COMBUSTION_ (and burning) of natural resources. 88. In the Nitrogen Cycle, atmospheric nitrogen, _N2_____, is not in a useable form, so it must be “_FIXED_.” There are 3 forms of fixation: _ATOMOSPHERIC FIXATION _(lighting), _BIOLOGICAL FIXATION_(bacteria), & _INDUSTRIAL FIXATION _(in labs). 89. The Hydrological Cycle, _WATER__ cycle, has the following 5 processes: __TRANSPIRATION_: the lose of water out of a plant’s leaves (plants “sweating”) Evaporation: when water heats up enough to become _STEAM_/_VAPOR__________ Condensation: when water vapor _COOLS________, forming __CLOUDS_________ __COLLECTION___________: the accumulation of water in soil, rivers, lakes, and oceans Precipitation: when condensation becomes too _HEAVY__, and falls as _RAIN, SLEET, SNOW, OR HAIL_ to the earth 90. Ecology is the study of _INTERACTIONS_ between _LIVING__ and the non-living components of their _ENVIRONMENT_. 91. Organic compounds always contain _CARBON__ and __HYDROGEN. 92. _AUTOTROPHS_ (aka: PRODUCERS) are organisms that make their own energy, while HETEROTROPHS_ (aka: CONSUMERS) must consume other organisms for their energy. 93.The four types of consumers are: _HERBIVORE __ : organism that consumes only plants _CARNIVORE___: organism that consumes only meat _OMNIVORE____: organism that consumes both plants and meat _DETRIVORE : organism that consumes dead/decaying organisms 94. Organisms who feed at the same level are in the same _TROPHIC LEVEL. The four levels are: _PRODUCERS, PRIMARY CONSUMERS, SECONDARY CONSUMERS, and TERTIARY CONSUMERS. 95. When the passage of energy through an ecosystem is mapped out linearly it is called a _FOOD CHAIN, if it is a branching network it is called a _FOOD WEB_. 96. The ultimate source of energy for all ecosystems is the _SUN_. Plants gain _1%__ of the sun’s energy and organisms who consumer other organism gain _10%__ of the their food’s energy and all of their __NUTRIENTS_. Energy is passed on in this fashion through an ecosystem with the majority of it released as _HEAT_, thus it is not _RECYCLED_. Nutrients are _RECYCLED_ because upon death an organism’s nutrients are returned to the _SOIL__. 97. Compare Biotic and Abiotic, and give and example of each. BIOTIC REFERS TO LIVING THINGS (LIONS, PLANTS, CELLS) ABIOTIC REFERS TO NON-LIVING THINGS (CHEMICALS, ROCKS) 98. Compare Habitat and Niche, and give and example of each.

Population density is the NUMBER of individuals in a population per AREA/SPACE. 103. Dispersion is the _SPACIAL_____ distribution of a _POPULATION_, 3 types are: _CLUMPED__: individuals clustered together _RANDOM _: individual’s location is independent of another’s _UNIFORM or EVEN__: individuals are separated by fairly even distance 104. The growth of a population is EXPONENTIAL, which produces a J-SHAPED curve when graphed. If limiting FACTORS are present then the population will hit CARRYING CAPACITY, which produces a _S-SHAPED curve when graphed. If the population fluctuates around the carrying capacity then LOGISTICS GROWTH is seen when graphed. 105. SYMBIOSIS is an ecological relationship in which 2 or more organisms live together in a close long term relationship. 3 types are: COMMENSALISM: one species benefits, the other is not helped or harmed PARASITISM: one species feeds on another (known as the host) MUTUALISM: both species are benefited, neither is harmed Human Systems- honor’s biology only 109.
