General Biology Test 1 Review Questions and
Answers (100% Pass)
Taxonomy - ✔️✔️the science of classification. (placing organisms in categories according to their
similarities).
Scientific Method - ✔️✔️a series of steps followed to solve problems including collecting data,
formulating a hypothesis, testing the hypothesis, and stating conclusions.
Theory - ✔️✔️an idea containing ideas to back it up.
Observation vs Inference - ✔️✔️observation is something that you can see, touch, smell, and hear
(no guesses). inference is using your observations to make a guess about an outcome or object.`
Independent Variable - ✔️✔️(statistics) a variable whose values are independent of changes in the
values of other variables.
Dependent Variable - ✔️✔️the variable that is measured in an experiment.
Unicellular - ✔️✔️to have one cell.
Mulitcellular - ✔️✔️to have many cells.
Eukaryotic - ✔️✔️cells that have a nucleus.
Prokaryotic - ✔️✔️cells that do not have a nucleus.
Ingestive Heterotrope - ✔️✔️an organism that contains a mouth in which it can feed with.

Molecule - ✔️✔️two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds.(smallest unit of most
compounds).
Element - ✔️✔️any of the more than 100 known substances (of which 92 occur naturally) that
cannot be separated into simpler substances and that singly or in combination constitute all
matter.
Compound - ✔️✔️to elements bonded together.
Acid - ✔️✔️compound that forms hydrogen ions (H+) in solution.
Base - ✔️✔️Comound that forms hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution.
pH - ✔️✔️a value that indicated the acidity or alkalinity of a solution on a scale of 0-14, based on
the proportion of H+ ions.

Neutrons - ✔️✔️the particles of the nucleus that have no charge.
Electrons - ✔️✔️negatively charged particles found outside the nucleus.

rate over time.
Ionic Bond - ✔️✔️a bond formed by positive and negative ions.
Covelant Bond - ✔️✔️two atoms sharing electrons.
