Intro to Biology questions with correct answers 2024 Adaptation - ANSWERS A trait that helps an organism survive in its environment (opposable thumbs for example) All living things are made of this. - ANSWERS At least one cell. Are you able to identify the parts of an experiment? (Independent variable, Dependent variable, etc). - ANSWERS Yes, I can identify the parts of an experiment! If you can't, study and look over the practice papers from you notebook. See teacher!! Biology - ANSWERS Study of life Can you list the differences and similarities between a prokaryote and a eukaryote? - ANSWERS Yes! Prokaryotes lack membrane organelles. Example is bacteria. Eukaryotes have membrane bound organelles. All non-bacteria kingdoms are eukaryotic. Constant - ANSWERS Things in an experiment that stay the same control group - ANSWERS Group in an experiment receives no experimental treatment dependent variable - ANSWERS Variable that is measured (y-axis) Examples of homeostasis - ANSWERS Sweating, shivering, thirst, enzymes, pH balance, etc. Experimental group - ANSWERS The group in an experiment that receives the variable being tested Homeostasis - ANSWERS Maintaining an internal balance despite external conditions. Hydrophilic - ANSWERS Water loving Hydrophobic - ANSWERS Water fearing Hypothesis - ANSWERS A testable prediction about the outcome of an experiment, often phrased in an "If...then" statement. independent variable - ANSWERS The manipulated variable in an experiment (xaxis) Inference - ANSWERS A conclusion reached on the basis of evidence or reasoning Inorganic - ANSWERS Not living and never was (water, salt, metals). Metabolize - ANSWERS To break down substances in cells to obtain energy Observation - ANSWERS Information obtained through the senses Organic - ANSWERS Examples include plants, animals, paper, dirt, bones, cotton, and many more. Reproduction - ANSWERS All living things have this biological goal (whether they know it or not) Response - ANSWERS A reaction to a stimulus Science - ANSWERS A body of knowledge based on the study of nature Scientific Method - ANSWERS A series of problem solving procedures that might include observations, hypothesis, experimenting, gathering and analysing data, and drawing conclusions. Species - ANSWERS A group of similar organisms that can breed and produce fertile offspring Stimulus - ANSWERS A signal to which an organism responds Theory - ANSWERS A hypothesis that has been tested repeatedly with the same outcome every time What are some ways you could prove a plant is alive (using the characteristics of life)? - ANSWERS Various answers accepted. Example: all living things are made of cells so you could look at it under a microscope to see if it has cells. Which is bigger: Cell or Tissue - ANSWERS Tissue Which is bigger: Macromolecule or an Atom - ANSWERS Macromolecule Which is smaller? Atom or Molecule - ANSWERS Ato
