Questions and All Correct Answers.
Biology - Answer The science of living organisms and life processes
complex, organized structure
response to stimuli
ability to maintain homeostasis
ability to acquire materials and energy
growth
ability to reproduce
ability to evolve - Answer the characteristics of life
Emergent Properties - Answer each level of life has ingredients or components which
interact to make something greater than the sum of the parts
Biosphere - Answer The part of Earth inhabited by living organisms, includes both living and
non living components
Ecosystem - Answer A community together with its nonliving surroundings
Community - Answer Two or more populations of different species living and interacting in
the same area
Species - Answer Very similar, potentially interbreeding organisms
population - Answer members of one species inhabiting a certain area
Multicellular Organism - Answer an individual living thing composed of many cells
Organ system - Answer two or more organs working together in the execution of a specific
bodily function
Organ - Answer a structure usually composed of several tissue types that form a functional
unit
, tissue - Answer a group of similar cells that perform a specific function
cell - Answer the smallest unit of life
organelle - Answer a structure within a cell that performs a specific function
molecule - Answer a combination of atoms
atom - Answer the smallest particle of an element that still retains the physical and chemical
properties of that element
subatomic particle - Answer particles that make up an atom
stimuli - Answer Organisms react to internal and external _____
homeostasis - Answer the ability to maintain the structure and regulate the internal
environment
ability to acquire material and energy - Answer Material and Energy are often transformed.
And energy is used to maintain a high level of complexity and organization to grow and
reproduce.
Heterortoph - Answer Organisms that take in nutrients(food) for raw material and energy
Autotrophs - Answer Use sunlight for energy(photosynthesis) to produce energy rich sugar-
molecules
Metabolism - Answer The sum of all the chemical reactions that occur inside an organism
Changes the raw material and energy into the forms which are needed for maintenance,
growth, reproduction, etc.
DNA - Answer the genetic information on "How to build offspring" is stored in this of the
parents and passed onto the offspring
Evolution - Answer If the environment changes, then the population of organisms must
change to fit the environment or face the possibility of extinction
