Final Exam: Biology 1010 SLCC UPDATED
ACTUAL Questions and CORRECT
Answers
Carl Linnaeus - CORRECT ANSWER - "Father of Taxonomy"; established his
classification of living things; famous for animal naming system of binomial nomenclature
Method of Science - CORRECT ANSWER - Theory that people accept some belief
because scientific studies have tended to replicate that result using a series of samples, settings,
and methods
Archaea - CORRECT ANSWER - One of two prokaryotic domains of life, the other being
Bacteria.
Archaea are found in harsh, volatile environments. High temps, toxicity, etc.
Kingdom Plantae - CORRECT ANSWER - Complex, multi-cellular organisms that use
photosynthesis to make food.
Kingdom Bacteria - CORRECT ANSWER - Kingdom of prokaryotic, single-celled
organisms that lack a membrane-enclosed nucleus and can be classified by shape.
Kingdom Animalia - CORRECT ANSWER - contain organisms that are multicellular
eukaryotes including vertebrates and invertebrates.
Archaebacteria - CORRECT ANSWER - considered ancient life forms that evolved
separately from bacteria and blue-green algae
heirarchy - CORRECT ANSWER - biosphere
ecosystem
community
,population
organism
organ systems
organs
tissues
Scientific Method - CORRECT ANSWER - a method of procedure that has characterized
natural science since the 17th century, consisting in systematic observation, measurement, and
experiment, and the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses.

Waters life supporting properties - CORRECT ANSWER - Water molecules stick together.
Water has a strong resistance to change in temperature.
Frozen water floats, expands when it freezes
Water is a common solvent for life.
Carbon - CORRECT ANSWER - Is an organic molecule, very versatile, can form many
bonds. Can make up to four bonds.
Macromolecules - CORRECT ANSWER - A very large organic molecule composed of
many smaller molecules
Carbohydrates-sugars
Proteins-Amino Acids
Nucleic Acids- Nucleotides
Lipids- fats, phospholipids, cholesterol.
, Proteins - CORRECT ANSWER - Made of monomers of amino acids
-Proteins perform most of the tasks the body needs to function.
-Most elaborate of life's molecules.
Amino acids are universal, and them come together to combine and create proteins. Their
sequence determines the type of protein.
Enzymes - CORRECT ANSWER - Catalysts for chemical reactions in living things, they
lower the activation activity required to do work.
Nuceleic Acids - CORRECT ANSWER - DNA and RNA
-nucleic polymers of nucleotides
1) DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid.
1) RNA, Ribonucleic acid
All cells contain: - CORRECT ANSWER - DNA (blueprint)
Cytoplasm (liquid in cells, cushions, suspends)
Ribosomes (read RNA, and build proteins)
Plasma Membranes
Eukaryotic cells - CORRECT ANSWER - Possess a membrane-bound nucleus
Polar covalent bond - CORRECT ANSWER - 1 oxygen, one hydrogen = polar covalent
bond
dehydration synthesis - CORRECT ANSWER - A chemical reaction in which two
molecules covalently bond to each other with the removal of a water molecule.
Making polymers formed by dehydration synthesis.
