BIO 112 EXAM 1 REVIEW: CH #1 - #4
What makes a living thing, a living thing? - Correct Answers -Cells
spontaneus generation - Correct Answers -All living things can only be produced by
LIVING THINGS (Ex. Reid's experiment, Pasteur's experiment, Mouse & cheese)
What are the properties of life - Correct Answers -1. Order
2. Sensitivity/Response to stimuli
3. Adaptation
4. Reproduction
5. Growth and development
6. Regulation/homeostasis
7. Energy processing
Photosynthesis - Correct Answers -C6H12O6 + 6O2 -- Energy --> 6CO2 + 6H2O
Order - Correct Answers -Consist of one or more cells, simple, single-celled organisms
are complex-atoms, molecules, organelles. Multicellular organisms-tissues work to
create organs.
sensitivity/response to stimuli - Correct Answers --All living things respond and adjust to
the environment
- Organisms respond to diverse stimuli
- Movement toward stimulus is positive, while away is negative
Adaptation - Correct Answers -- All living organisms exhibit a "fit" to their environment
Reproduction - Correct Answers -- All living things can reproduce (sexually or asexually)
- Single-celled organisms reproduce duplicating DNA then dividing it equally as cell
divides to two new cells
- Multicellular organisms
- Genes containing DNA
(ex: dogs, humans, cats)
Growth and Development - Correct Answers -- All living things grow
- Living things can repair damaged parts
- Organisms grow/develop
following instructions coded for by genes
- Genes provide instructions to direct cellular growth
, Regulation/Homeostasis - Correct Answers -- Even the smallest organisms are complex
and require multiple regulatory mechanisms to coordinate internal functions, respond to
stimuli, and cope with stress
- To function properly, cells require appropriate conditions such as proper temperature,
pH, and concentrations of diverse chemicals
Energy Processing - Correct Answers -- All organisms use a source of energy for their
metabolic activities
- Organisms capture energy from sun and convert to chemical energy (photosynthesis)
or they use chemical energy in molecules they take in as food (cellular respiration)
- Occurs in all living things at a cellular level
Why virus is NOT a living thing? - Correct Answers -No cell, need a host
Eukaryotes - Correct Answers -- Complex structure
- Delicate nicely organized
- Multiple cells
- Sexual reproduction
Which of the following is an example of an organization? - Correct Answers -Even
though bacteria are single-celled organisms, they have multiple organisms to work.
Units of length - Correct Answers -Cm (Centimeter) = 10^-2
Mm (Millimeter) = 10^-3
Um (Micrometer) = 10^-6
Nn ((Nanometer) = 10^-9
Pn (Picometer) = 10^-12
Fm (Femto) = 10^-15
What's the Redi's and Pasteur's experiments conclusion? - Correct Answers -Pasteur's
experiment showed that microbes cannot arise from nonliving materials under the
conditions that existed on Earth during his lifetime. But his experiment did not prove that
spontaneous generation never occurred.
Redi's experiment concluded that flies must have access to meat for maggots to
develop on the meat.
What are the seven elements from the periodic table? - Correct Answers -H= Hydrogen
(#1)
C= Carbon (#6)
N= Nitrogen (#7)
O= Oxygen (#8)
Na= Sodium (#11)
P= Phos (#15)
Cl= Chloride (#17)
