POB UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS EXAM 1 SHADWICK
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Emergent Properties - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅a property that a complex system has but the
individual members of the system do not.
example: saltiness, because NaCl is salty not Na or Cl.
-all aspects of life contain emergent properties.
Viruses - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅cellular nonliving structures that require a living cell to reproduce
(obligate parasites).
single celled, has an outer capsid that protects nucleic acid core (RNA) , and requires a host cell to
reproduce. have the ability to reproduce, adapt, are organized, respond to stimuli, and acquire energy
and materials.
2 Main Components of Viruses - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Capsid - outer portion comprised of
proteins
Nucleic Acid Core (DNA or RNA)
Virus Life Cycle - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Attachment, Entry, Replication, Biosynthesis, Assembly,
Building of Emergence, Repeat
Qualities Of Life - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Living things are organized, acquire materials, reproduce,
respond to stimuli, are homeostatic, grow and develop, have the capacity to adapt.
Individuals do not evolve.
Biosphere - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅The sum of all life
Tissue - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅a group of cells that perform a particular function
,Metabolism - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅all of the chemical reactions that occur in a cell
Photosynthesis - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅process that transforms solar energy into the chemical
energy
Energy - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅capacity to do work
Systematics - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅study of the evolutionary relationships between organisms
Basic Classifications (most inclusive to lease species) - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Domain, Kingdom,
Phylum, Order, Class, Family, Genus, and Species
The 3 Domains - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅The largest classification category.
1. Archaea
2. Bacteria
-Both are prokaryotes.
3. Eukarya (4 kingdoms)
Taxonomy - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Discipline of identifying and grouping organisms according to
certain rules
Prokatyotes - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅lack the membrane bound nucleus found in the cells of
eukaryotes in domain eukarya (found in nucleus)
Kingdoms - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Eukaryotes -
protists, fungi, plants, animals
, Protists - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Single Celled Organisms, fewer multicellular species
Fungi - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Familiar molds and mushrooms that help decompose dead
organisms
Plants - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅multicellular photosynthesizers
Animals - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅multicellular and ingest food
Law - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅a description of a pattern in nature
Law of Gravity - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅objects with mass attracted to each other
Law of Evolution - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅life on earth has changed
Theory - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Explanation as to why a pattern (law) exists
Predictive Hypothesis - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Based on theories. Describes what we should see in
an experiment to help us support or refute a theory.
2 Types of Scientific Method - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅1. Inductive Reasoning - makes
generalization based on collecting and analyzing large numbers of specific observations. (specific to
general)
2. Deductive Reasoning - flows from general premises to predicted and specific rules. (if, then)
Example: "Since humans are organisms they are made up of cells." (general to specific)
Viral Replication - CORRECT ANSWER✅✅✅Hijack a host cell and Manufacture.
1. Attachment; Recognize host cell
