9 Something that evokes a response
10 What is a stimulus?
11 Maintaining a stable internal environment
12 What is homeostasis?
13 Total of all the chemical reactions in an organism
14 What is metabolism?
15 Process where organisms become mature adults
16 What is development?
17 CO 2 + H 2 O C 6 H 12 O 6 + O 2 and C 6 H 12 O 6 + O 2 CO 2 + H 2 O + ATP
18 What are the reactions for Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
19 This organism uses 2 parents to reproduce and cannot make its own food.
20 What is a sexual heterotroph?
21 A screw-up in the DNA which can help, hurt or have no effect on the organism
22 What is a mutation?
23 Smallest unit that can perform all life’s processes
24 What is a cell?
25 Structures that carry out specialized jobs within an organ system
26 What is an organ?
27 Group of cells that have similar abilities and that allow an organ to function
28 What are tissues?
29 The process in which all organisms produce new organisms like themselves
30 What is reproduction?
31 Large molecule containing the hereditary code for an organism
32 What is DNA?
33 Hereditary information from two individuals is combined in their offspring
34 What is sexual reproduction?
35
36 A short segment of DNA that codes for a protein or polypeptide
37 What is a gene?
38 Single organism divides producing genetically identical cells
39 What is asexual reproduction?
40 Branch of biology that studies organisms interacting with each other & their environment
41 What is ecology?
42 The cause of adaptations (and eventually evolution)
43 What is a mutation?
44 The rules that govern how cells use the hereditary instructions in their DNA
45 What is the genetic code?
46 The three domains of life
47 What are Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya?
48 The six Kingdoms of life
49 What are Archaebacteria (Archaea), Eubacteria (Bacteria), Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia?
50 Traits that improve an individual’s ability to survive and reproduce
51 What are adaptations?
52 Organisms with favorable traits survive & reproduce to pass on their genes
53 What is natural selection?
54 Helps us understand how populations of organisms came into existence & how they’ve changed over time
55 What is evolution?
56 Rabbits with white fur and short ears in snow would be an example
57 What are adaptations?
58
59 All organisms (both autotrophs and heterotrophs) must do this in order to get ATP and live!
60 What is cellular respiration?
61 Organized approach used in science to explain observations of the natural world
62 What is the scientific method?
63 First step in a scientific study
64 What is observation of the natural world?
65 A statement that proposes an explanation to a scientific question
66 What is a hypothesis?
67 A group in an experiment that is used for comparison
68 What is the control?
69 Numerical data collected in a scientific experiment
70 What is quantitative data?
71 Final Jeopardy
72 Taxonomy
73 Binomial Nomenclature includes these 2 classifications
74 What are genus and species?
