Chapters 1-47 (containing Questions and
answers)
adaptation - correct answer>>>Species modification in
structure, function, or behavior that makes a species
more suitable to its environment.
animal - correct answer>>>Multicelluar, heterotrophic
eukaryote that undergoes development to achieve its
final form. In general, mobile organisms, characterized by
the presence of muscular and nervous tissue.
binomial - correct answer>>>nomenclature scientific
name of an organism, the first part of which designates
the genus and the second part of which designates the
specific epithet
biodiversity - correct answer>>>total number of species,
the variability of their genes, and the communities in
which they live
biology - correct answer>>>the branch of science that is
concerned with the study of life and living organsims.
biosphere - correct answer>>>zone of air, land, and
water at the surface of the Earth in which living
organisms are found
, cell - correct answer>>>the smallest unit of life that
displays all the properties of life; composed of cytoplasm
surrounded by a plasma membrane
class - correct answer>>>one of the categories, or taxa,
used by taxonomists to group species; the taxon above
the order level
community - correct answer>>>assemblage of species
interacting with one another within the same
environment
conclusion - correct answer>>>sample that goes through
all the steps of an experiment but does not contain the
variable being tested; a standard against which the
results of an experiment are checked
control - correct answer>>>sample that goes through all
the steps of an experiment but does not contain the
variable being tested; a standard against which the
results of an experiment are checked
data - correct answer>>>facts or information collected
through observation and/or experimentation
