metabolism - CORRECT ANSWER-sum of the biochemical reactions in a living
organism
in order to sustain life, biochemical reactions are utilized to produce
_______________. - CORRECT ANSWER-energy
living organisms must obtain ______________ ________ or use metabolic
processes to produce their own energy - CORRECT ANSWER-biological fuel
many prokaryotes use organic substances, metabolizing them via
____________________ ____________________. - CORRECT ANSWER-anaerobic
respiration
plants use light to trap energy through the process of __________________. -
CORRECT ANSWER-photosynthesis
animals ingest food & use biomacromolecules as apart of anaerobic respiration
to produce _____________ for ________________ _______________. -
CORRECT ANSWER-ATP; cellular energy
the generation of new offspring is always accompanied by distinct
_______________ & ________________ changes - CORRECT ANSWER-growth;
development
adaptation - CORRECT ANSWER-a change or a process that allows an organism to
become better suited for their environment
,stimulus - CORRECT ANSWER-anything that causes an organism to respond
(T/F) Adaptations can be physical or behavioral - CORRECT ANSWER-True
an example of a physical adaptation - CORRECT ANSWER-a crab's hard shell
an example of a behavioral adaptation - CORRECT ANSWER-a squirrel hibernating
through the winter
cats, monkeys and humans are in the same ______________. - CORRECT ANSWER-
order
when it comes to classification, latin binominal names are used to identify
individual organisms of a certain ____________. - CORRECT ANSWER-species
the first part of the binominal is the ___________ name, and the second part is
the _____________ _____________. - CORRECT ANSWER-genus; unique species
phylogenic tree - CORRECT ANSWER-a branching diagram that shows the
relationship between different levels of linnean classification taxa
Each branch point of the phylogenic tree represents - CORRECT ANSWER-where
the organisms likely shared a common ancestor
branches arise from the shared point of the phylogenic tree represent - CORRECT
ANSWER-different species referred to as sister taxa
, scientists use 2 types of tree diagrams to demonstrate evolutionary
relationships and Linnean classification - CORRECT ANSWER-the rooted tree and
the unrooted tree
rooted tree - CORRECT ANSWER-has a node or "root" that is shared between
leaves on the tree. the leaves represent all organisms that have shared an
evolutionary link to the main, node.
unrooted tree - CORRECT ANSWER-illustrates the levels of relatedness without
making hypothesis about common or shared ancestry
archaea - CORRECT ANSWER-members of this domain are single-celled
microscopic organisms with a prokaryotic cell structure and reproduce by
binary fission
plasmids - CORRECT ANSWER-a nucleoid region with single, circular DNA
containing structures
ribosomal RNA (rRNA) - CORRECT ANSWER-molecules that facilitate the assembly
of amino acids in a protein chain and form ribosomes within the cell
rRNA is a necessary component for all living cells to ______________
______________. - CORRECT ANSWER-synthesize protein
in _______________, rRNA is unique and specific to the organism - CORRECT
ANSWER-phylogeny
rRNA can provide insights into - CORRECT ANSWER-the evolutionary relationships
of organisms with different domains and kingdoms
