What are the properties of life? - correct answer ✔✔ Order-Reproduction-
Regulation(Homeostasis)-Energy Processing(Cell Respiration)-Growth & Development-Response
to Environment-Evolutionary Adaptation
Ostrich Eggs Run Home Rapidly At Dawn
What are the levels of biological organization? - correct answer ✔✔ Biosphere-Ecosystem-
Community-Population-Organism-Organ System-Organ-Tissue-Cell-Organelles-Molecule-Atom
What is systems biology? - correct answer ✔✔ is an approach that attempts to model the
dynamic behavior of whole biological systems based on a study of the interactions among the
system's parts.
How do we classify organisms? - correct answer ✔✔ taxonomy
What are the main differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? - correct answer ✔✔
Eukaryotic - membrane bound organelles, DNA in the nucleus
Prokaryotic - no organelles, DNA everywhere
What domains are prokaryotic? - correct answer ✔✔ Bacteria and Archae
, What is the difference between positive and negative feedback? - correct answer ✔✔ negative
feedback is when it slows down and positive feedback is when it speed up; exceeds the limit;
amplifies.
Example: The contractions are speeding up so its positive feed back. Slowing down contractions
is negative feedback.
What is a hypothesis? - correct answer ✔✔ is a tentative answer to a well framed question
What is a prediction - correct answer ✔✔ The act of making an educated guess as to the
outcome of a situation
What is the difference between qualitative and quantitative data? - correct answer ✔✔
Qualitative data( blue hair and brown eyes)
Quantitative data( 180lbs. and 5ft. 9in.)
What is the difference between catastrophism and uniformitarianism? - correct answer ✔✔
Catastrophism is an idea that natural disasters can dramatically and quickly change the surface
of the Earth.These natural disasters includes floods and earthquakes.
Uniformitarianism is the idea that geological processes slowly changed how the surface of the
Earth appears. These geological processes include erosion.
Who were the individuals who believed in these topics? - correct answer ✔✔ Cuvier
(Catastrophism)
James Hulton & Charles Lyell (Uniformitarianism)
What must a population have in order to have natural selection? - correct answer ✔✔ variation
in the population
