BIO 1050 FINAL EXAM ECU
biology - Correct Answers -the scientific study of life
life - Correct Answers -it is a set of characteristics that all living things consist of
what are the characteristics for life - Correct Answers -ordered from small sub-units to
bigger units
require energy
made up of carbs, proteins, lipids
responds to stimulas
regulate thermal environment
can change over time (adaptations)
science - Correct Answers -is a way of knowing
-limited to observations/measurements (data)
-natural
-new facts take precedence
-influences society (positive and negative)
hypothesis - Correct Answers -testable/falsifiable and cannot be proven only supported
theories - Correct Answers -broad ideas, supported by a lot of evidence (not the same
as a hypothesis)
dependent variables - Correct Answers -the variable you are measuring
independent variables - Correct Answers -what happens because of your change
controls - Correct Answers -what is not exposed
replication - Correct Answers -the amount of each variable you are testing
sample size - Correct Answers -number of subjects in both experimental and control
groups - larger sample size usually means more reliable results (only the number in
ONE group)
peer review - Correct Answers -other scientist review journal
, pseudoscience - Correct Answers -collection of practices mistakenly regarded as being
based on scientific method
cell theory - Correct Answers -theory which describes the properties of cells. these cells
are the basic unit of structure in all organisms and also the basic unit of reproduction
prokaryotic cells - Correct Answers -bacteria and archaea
what properties do prokaryotic cells posses - Correct Answers -no nucleus
DNA in cytoplasm
smaller
cytoplasm contains structures called organelles

what is used in photosynthesis and what does it create - Correct Answers -sunlight +
water + carbon dioxide ---create---- oxygen + sugar
cellular respiration - Correct Answers -function of ATP
where does cellular respiration occur - Correct Answers -in mitochondria
is cellular respiration aerobic or biotic? - Correct Answers -aerobic process (inhalation &
exhalation)
equation for cellular respiration - Correct Answers -oxygen + sugar = carbon dioxide +
water + ATP (energy)
ATP - Correct Answers -stores energy that can be used for cellular work
calorie - Correct Answers -amount of energy that raises the temperature of 1g of water
by 1 degree celsius
recommended calorie intake for inactive women and elderly - Correct Answers -1600
recommended calorie intake for active women and inactive men - Correct Answers -
2200
