1 BIOLOGY STAAR REVIEW

2 # 1 - Ecology

3 The Producers: Autotrophs
An autotroph or producer is an organism that uses energy from light (sun) or other chemicals to produce its own food (ex – Glucose).

4 The Producers: Autotrophs
Examples: trees, grasses, shrubs, aquatic plants, etc.

5 The Producers: Autotrophs
Many organisms on the planet rely on autotrophs for nutrients and energy.

6 The Consumers: Heterotrophs
 Heterotrophs (consumers) - cannot produce their own food. They must obtain nutrients by eating other organisms. Examples: Tigers, Birds, Fish, Insects, etc.

13 2. Biological Pyramids Biological Pyramids – As you go UP the food chain, the number of organisms, amount of energy and mass decrease.

14 2. Biological Pyramids

15 2. Biological Pyramids For Example:
The grass = 100% energy. Grasshopper = 10% energy of the grass. Frog = 10% energy of the grasshopper. As food chain goes to each level, the energy level decreases. 90% is given off through heat and activity. Only 10% of energy is passed on.

16 3. Symbiosis Symbiosis – The relationship in which there is a close and permanent association between organisms of different species.

17 3. Symbiosis A symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit.
3 Types of Symbiosis: Definition Example Mutualism +/+ A symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. A flower and a bee The flower gets pollinated and bee gets food.

18 3. Symbiosis 3 Types of Symbiosis: Definition Example Commensalism +/0 A symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits and the other species is neither harmed nor benefits. Barnacles on whales Barnacles are carried to different areas to reproduce and whales are not affected.

19 3. Symbiosis 3 Types of Symbiosis: Definition Example Parasitism +/- A symbiotic relationship in which a member of one species benefits and the other species is harmed. Tapeworm in a human The tapeworm lives in the intestines and takes nutrients from the human.

20 Predator/Prey Relationships:
 A relationship that involves one organism capturing and eating another organism. _________ - “Hunter” _________ - “Hunted”

30 # 2 - Cells

31 Cells Remember: Animal cell = round shape And NO cell wall!

32 Cells Remember: Plant cell = square or rectangle shape
And has a cell wall!

33 1. Important Organelles:
Nucleus – site of DNA, control center, contains blueprints for life

34 1. Important Organelles:
Mitochondria – ENERGY – “powerhouse” of the cell

35 1. Important Organelles:
Plasma Membrane (a.k.a. - cell membrane) – Outer protective layer that allows water and small molecules to move in and out of the cell.

36 1. Important Organelles:
Ribosome – site of protein synthesis. **Remember – the directions for what proteins will be made is in the DNA

37 1. Important Organelles:
Chloroplast – site of photosynthesis (autotrophs only)

38 1. Important Organelles:
Lysosome - “Lysol”, the cleaner, recycler the garbage man. Not seen as an answer, but used as a distracter in the answer choices.

39 Directions: Use the words on the left to fill in the Venn Diagram
ANIMAL CELL PLANT CELL Round shape Nucleus Cell Wall Cell Membrane Chloroplast Mitochondria Square Shape Eukaryotic Round shape, Cell wall, Chloroplast, Nucleus, Cell membrane, Square shape, Mitochondria, Eukaryotic

40 2. Diffusion and Osmosis:
Diffusion – movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. The red molecules are moving from HIGH to LOW concentrations across the membrane.

41 2. Diffusion and Osmosis:
Osmosis – movement of WATER from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. In diffusion, we only care about what WATER molecules are doing!

42 2. Diffusion and Osmosis:
Remember – water can move in or out of the cell freely and can change the volume of the cell depending on what type of solution you put it in.

52 DNA Replication A T C G DNA Bases: A – Adenine T – Thymine
C – Cytosine G - Guanine DNA bases that pair together: _____ & _____ and _____ & _____ A T C G

53 DNA Replication DNA Replication: DNA makes a copy of itself for mitosis. During replication, if the DNA template strand is: A T G G T C A A T G G C T T A then the complementary DNA strand would be: __________________________ T A C C A G T T A C C G A A T

54 Protein Synthesis: Translation & Transcription
Making a protein STEP #1: Transcription: the DNA code is copied by the mRNA, which brings it from the nucleus to cytoplasm.

55 Translation & Transcription
RNA Bases: A – Adenine U – Uracil C – Cytosine G - Guanine RNA bases that pair together: _____ & _____ and _____ & _____ A U C G

56 Translation During transcription, if the DNA template strand is: A T G G T C A A T G G C T T A then the complementary RNA strand would be: _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ U A C C A G U U A C C G A A U

57 Protein Synthesis: Translation & Transcription
Making a protein STEP #2: Translation: with help from ribosome, the tRNA uses the mRNA sequence to assemble the amino acids in the correct order to make the proteins, as originally directed by the DNA.

58 Translation U A C C A G U U A C C G A A U Tyr Gln Leu Pro Asn
The mRNA strand made during transcription was : _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ So, during Translation, the tRNA and the ribosome would assemble the following strand of amino acids: (use the codon chart) _____ , ____ , ____ , ____ , _____ U A C C A G U U A C C G A A U Tyr Gln Leu Pro Asn
