Biology - CORRECT ANSWERS-is a science that seeks to understand the activities of
living things. May also be referred to as the science of life.
Basic biological concepts - CORRECT ANSWERS-1. metabolism
2. homeostasis
3. adaptation
Scientific Method - CORRECT ANSWERS-A series of steps followed to solve problems
including collecting data, formulating a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis, and stating
conclusions.
to ask and answer scientific questions - CORRECT ANSWERS-by making observation
& performing experiments
scientific method steps - CORRECT ANSWERS-1. Ask a Question
2. Do Background Research
3. Construct a Hypothesis
4. Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
5. Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion based on FACTS.
6. Communicate Your Results
Adaptation - CORRECT ANSWERS-the modification of an organism, or one or more of
its parts, that makes it more fit for existence under the conditions of its environment.
homeostasis - CORRECT ANSWERS-a tendency toward a stable state between
different, but interdependent elements or groups of elements of an organism, population
or group.
metabolism - CORRECT ANSWERS-network of chemical reactions by which living cells
grow and sustain themselves.
,anabolism - CORRECT ANSWERS-uses energy stored in the form of adenosine
triphosphate (ATP) to build larger molecules from smaller molecules.
catabolic - CORRECT ANSWERS-reactions degrade larger molecules in order to
produce ATP and raw materials for anabolic reactions.
LIFE IS BEST DEFINED IN TERMS OF THE FUNCTIONS PERFORMED BY ALL
LIVING THINGS - CORRECT ANSWERS-
TO SUSTAIN LIFE, ALL LIVING ORGANISMS MUST BE ABLE TO COMPETENTLY
CARRY OUT BIOCHEMICAL & BIOPHYSICAL ACTIVITIES - CORRECT ANSWERS-
Nutrition, nourishments, or aliment is the supply of materials or food required by
organism and cells to stay alive. - CORRECT ANSWERS-
Processes included with nutrition - CORRECT ANSWERS-ingestion - not always an
oral process .
digestion - chemical changes take place in the body.
assimilation - changing certain nutrients into the protoplasm of cells.
conveyance or transport - absorption of materials by living organisms, active transport.
diffusion - CORRECT ANSWERS-flow of molecules from areas of higher or lower
concentrations
circulation - CORRECT ANSWERS-movement of fluid and other materials throughout
the organism
respiration - CORRECT ANSWERS-is a complex process
consists of breathing and cellular respiration
excretion - CORRECT ANSWERS-process of removing waste products
synthesis - CORRECT ANSWERS-biochemical process
regulation - CORRECT ANSWERS-consists of all processes that control, coordinate or
adjust to numerous activities of the organism.
allows for adaptation to the internal or external environment.
growth
- coordinated, orderly growth in cells, resulting in growth of organisms.
,reproduction - CORRECT ANSWERS-reproduction of new being by parent organism or
organisms
highly complex process
* without reproduction the species or organism becomes extinct
types of reproduction - CORRECT ANSWERS-1. asexual - requiring a single parent
2. sexual - requiring two parents.
protoplasm - CORRECT ANSWERS-living matter composed of protoplasm.
- found only in living matter
includes: proteins carbohydrates, lipids, water, and nucleic acid.
growth - CORRECT ANSWERS-living matter is separated from nonliving matter by its
distinctive method of growth.
every living things converts food into more living matter .
cellular organization - CORRECT ANSWERS-living matter is usually divided into small
units known as cells.
cells - CORRECT ANSWERS-smallest unit of life.
cells vary in size, shape, and function.
cell respiration - CORRECT ANSWERS-life cannot be maintain without the release of
energy.
oxygen is required for food breakdown the term respiration is used to describe it.
overproduction of offspring - CORRECT ANSWERS-all living organisms produce more
offspring than are necessary to replace the parents if all should live.
reproduction - CORRECT ANSWERS-it is necessary because living organisms do not
live indefinitely.
the nature of matter - CORRECT ANSWERS-anything that has weight and occupies
space.
may be gas, liquid, or solid.
gases - CORRECT ANSWERS-considered fluids
have high kinetic energy
have no definite shape
have no definite volume
volume depends upon the size if the container
examples : hydrogen, methane, nitrogen, oxygen
, liquids - CORRECT ANSWERS-they can take the shape of any container they're placed
in.
volume always remains constant.
examples : metal mercury, nonmetal bromine, glass
solids - CORRECT ANSWERS-maintain shape.
occupy volume.
have identifying density.
cannot be forced into a smaller space.
do no increase under pressure
examples: metals (except for mercury) nonmetals, carbon, phosphorus, sulfur
elements - CORRECT ANSWERS-the simplest form of matter that cannot be changed
further by chemical or physical methods.
cannot be broken down into two or more different kinds of atoms.
examples : iron, sulfur, oxygen, iodine, calcium
compounds - CORRECT ANSWERS-formed by a combination of two or more elements
which are chemically united
examples: water, glucose, alcohol, salt, ethanol, acetic acid, butane, methane, baking
soda, citric acid, camphor, octane.
mixture - CORRECT ANSWERS-combinations of different elements or compounds in
which there is little if any chemical union of the combined parts.
solutions - CORRECT ANSWERS-homogenous mixture.
a mixture of two or more substances in a single phase.
at least two substances must be mixed in order to have a solution
solute - CORRECT ANSWERS-A substance that is dissolved in a solution.
solvent - CORRECT ANSWERS-the substance in which the solute dissolves
acids - CORRECT ANSWERS-release hydrogen ions in water solutions.
sour like lemons or limes
burn to the touch
turn litmus paper red
react with metals to release hydrogen gas
react with carbonates to release carbon dioxide gas
bases - CORRECT ANSWERS-accept hydrogen atoms.
