what is Neural involves gene expression and signal transduction
Development (nervous system in the brain)
modifications to nervous system after birth; activity
what is Neuronal Plasticity
dependent; "use it or lose it"
junction between neurons that tell the brain
what are Synapses
memories. When broken, the memory is "lost"
What's the first step in the Stimulus
process of memory
formation?
What's the second step in Sensory Memory
the process of memory
formation?
What's the third step in the Short-Term Memory
process of memory
formation?
What's the fourth step in Long-Term Memory
the process of memory
formation?
,What process is it when Long-Term Potentiation (LTP)
you retrieve memory from
the long-term memory
into the short-term?
What happens when Forgotten
sensory memory and
short-term memory is not
encoded?
what is Long-Term encoding and reencoding memories; changes the
Potentiation (LTP) brain (stronger synapses/memory)
what is a Neuron Nerve cell
the whole is more than just the sum of its parts (ex:
what is Emergence
H2O)
what are the Levels of Biosphere > Ecosystems > Communities > Populations
Biological Organization > Organisms > Organs & Organ Systems > Tissues >
(largest to smallest) Cells > Organelles > Molecule
what does an acronym for the levels of biological organization
BECPO(OS)TCOM mean
What's 1st the level of Biosphere
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
What's 2nd the level of Ecosystems
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
What's 3rd the level of Communities
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
What's 4th the level of Populations
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
, What's the 5th level of Organisms
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
What's 6th the level of Organs/Organ Systems
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
What's 7th the level of Tissues
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
What's the 8th level of Cells
biological organization?

What's the 9th level of Organelles
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
What's the 10th level of Molecules
biological organization?
(from largest to smallest)
testable explanation for observations based on
Hypothesis
available data
what you expect to see when you test your
what is a Prediction
hypothesis
what is a Theory broad explanation with significant support
statement of what always occurs under certain
what is a Law
circumstances
what is The Scientific Observation, Hypothesis, Experiment, Data
Method Collection, Conclusion, and Retest (if needed)
a subatomic particle with a negative charge, move
what are Electrons (e-)
rapidly, determine how element reacts
What happens when an Moves farther away from the nucleus, can be used to
electron is is excited? do work
