Test Bank Latest Version.
biology - Answer scientific study of life
defining characteristics of life - Answer 1. organized
2. requires energy
3. maintains internal stability
4. reproduces, grows, and develops
5. evolves
organism break down - Answer organism
organ systems
organs
tissues
cells
organelles
molecules
atoms
different stages of biological organization - Answer
populations>communities>ecosystem>biosphere
ecosystem - Answer living and non-living things on earth
emergent properties - Answer quality that results from interactions of a system's components
parts lead to structure, which leads to function
producers - Answer obtain energy from sun and nutrients from nonliving environments
, heat - Answer form of energy that is lost every time energy is transferred
homeostasis and examples of it - Answer maintenance of internal stability (temp., blood
glucose, water content, heart rate)
reproduction - Answer passes on DNA from generation to generation
asexual reproduction - Answer 1 parent- offspring and parent have same DNA
sexual reproduction - Answer 2 parents- offspring and parents each have unique DNA
binary fission - Answer simple cel division
evolution - Answer within a population, DNA changes, and so traits change over generations
natural selection - Answer differential reproduction of organisms based on inherited traits
adaptation - Answer inherited trait that permits an organism to survive and reproduce
why do bacteria evolve quickly? - Answer they reproduce quickly by simple cell division
taxonomy - Answer scientific study of naming and categorizing organisms
