BIOL 1201 Exam 1 LSU Steven
Pomarico CORRECT 100%
about how many species have been named and identified? - ANSWER1.8 million
organic molecules - ANSWERcontain skeleton structures of carbon with hydrogen
and oxygen
Energy - ANSWERcapacity to do work
structural isomers - ANSWERhave different covalent arrangements of their atoms
basic unit of life? - ANSWERcells
geometric isomers - ANSWERhave the same covalent arrangements but differ in
spatial arrangements
Hierarchy of Biological Organization - ANSWERAtoms, Molecules, Macromolecules,
Organelles, Cells, Tissues, Organs, Organ Systems, Organisms, Populations,
Community, Ecosystem, Biomes, Biosphere
hydrocarbons - ANSWERCompounds composed of only carbon and hydrogen
Emergent Properties - ANSWERNew properties that arise with each step upward in
the hierarchy of life, owing to the arrangement and interactions of parts as
complexity increases.
isomers - ANSWERCompounds with the same formula but different structures.
prokaryotic cells - ANSWERdo not have a nucleus or other membrane-bound
organelles
enantiomers - ANSWERisomers that are mirror images of each other
eukaryotic cells - ANSWERhave a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles
enantiomers require an - ANSWERasymmetric carbon
homeostasis - ANSWERorganisms ability to maintain their structure and regulate
their internal environment
asymmetric carbon - ANSWERa carbon atom that is attached to four different atoms
or groups of atoms
premise - ANSWERthe division of living organisms into groups
, ketone - ANSWERan organic molecule with a carbonyl group located in the center of
the carbon skeleton
hypothesis based science - ANSWERthe scientific method, make observations, form
a hypothesis, conduct experiments, make conclusions
carboxyl group - ANSWERA functional group present in organic acids and consisting
of a single carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom and also bonded to a
hydroxyl group.
functional groups - ANSWERhydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl, amino, sulfhydryl,
phosphate, methyl
prokaryotic domains - ANSWERbacteria and archaea
hydroxyl group - ANSWERA functional group consisting of a hydrogen atom joined to
an oxygen atom by a polar covalent bond. Molecules possessing this group are
soluble in water and are called alcohols.
eukarya - ANSWERProtista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia
carbonyl group - ANSWERa chemical group consisting of a carbon atom linked by a
double bond to an oxygen atom
methods of science - ANSWERdiscovery science focused on where, what, when and
hypothesis based science focused on the how and why
aldehyde - ANSWERAn organic molecule with a carbonyl group located at the end of
the carbon skeleton.
principles of science - ANSWERall events have a natural cause: natural casality
natural causes obey natural laws
natural laws don't change with time or distance
theory - ANSWERan explanation of natural events that is based on a large number
of observations and or experiments
carboxylic acids - ANSWERcompounds with carboxyl groups
25 essential elements for life - ANSWEROxygen 96%
Nitrogen
Carbon
Hydrogen
______________
K,S,P,Ca,Na,Cl,Mg 3.7%
amino group - ANSWERa chemical group consisting of a nitrogen atom bonded to
two hydrogen atoms
