Penn Foster - Biology Lesson 1, The Nature of Science, the Chemistry of Life, and Ecology, Exercise Answer Key 100%Pass What is the scientific method? A systematic approach to investigating natural phenomena through observation, hypothesis formation, experimentation, and analysis. What are the four major elements that make up most of the human body? Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. What is the role of enzymes in biochemical reactions? Enzymes act as catalysts to spe...

What six functions characterize all living things? Organization Responsiveness Growth Reproduction Movement Metabolism/Excretion What is homeostasis? A steady state of internal environment of an organism. What is the difference between positive and negative feedback? Give an example of each. Positive feedback enhances change (labor contractions during birth, blood clotting, etc...) Negative feedback resists change (body temperature, insulin, cortisol, etc...) List...

Why are enzymes really good catalysts? Correct Answer-Because enzyme active sites have evolved to catalyze reactions with maximum efficiency by using several catalytic mechanisms simultaneously Enzymes exhibit maximal activity under what kind of conditions? Correct Answer-Mild conditions, like conditions that exist in cells. Why are enzymes categorized as being extremely specific? Correct Answer-Because an enzyme usually catalyzes ONLY the reaction involving "its" substrate, even though ...

What is one requirement for life? correct answers The ability to efficiently an selectively catalyze chemical reactions Most biomolecules are very stable. What does this mean in terms of permitting life? correct answers Uncatalyzed transformations would be too slow to permit life What do enzymes provide a mechanism for? correct answers The regulation and coordination of these reactions What is vitalism? correct answers Belief that living things are fundamentally different from non-livin...
