eukaryotes
have membrane encoded compartments (organelles) and a nucles
mitochondia
in animal and plant cells. organelle that releases energy
created an internal environment for chemical reactions within a cell, made up of phospholipids and fatty acids
membranes
evolution
change in genetic makeup of a biological population over time
binomial naming
Genus and species of an organism. for organization
used for research, organisms that researchers can use and extend their findings to other organisms
model organisms
structual, physiological or behavioral traits that increase an organism's chance of surviving. can come from mutations
adaptations
controlled experiment
an experiment that manipulates one of the variables being tested
theory
body of knowledge with facts to back it up
endosymbiosis
how organelles are hypothesized to hae originated, larger cells engulfing smaller cells
phylogenic tree
shows evolutionary relationships. evidence from fossils, genome analysis and metabolic processes. shows history of organisms
determined by fossils, structures, chemical processes, behavior and molecular analysis of genome
evolutionary relationships
protein
these are macromolecules. polymers made out of amino acids. They govern chemical reactions in cells and form organism’s structure. Functions include enzymes, receptor, transport and genetic regulation
changes in an organism's DNA. sometimes give rise to structural and functional changes. these can be advantageous and contribute to natural selection. heritable
mutations
these are macromolecules. polymers made out of amino acids. They govern chemical reactions in cells and form organism’s structure. Functions include enzymes, receptor, transport and genetic regulation
protein
gene
specific part of DNA that encodes proteins
nucleic acids
DNA and RNA, store instructions for how to synthesize proteins
Genus
group of species that share a recent common ancestor
chloroplast
in plant cells. organelle that specializes in photosynthesis
examples are synthesis movement and electrical work
cellular work
group of species that share a recent common ancestor
Genus
membranes
created an internal environment for chemical reactions within a cell, made up of phospholipids and fatty acids
class of individuals with common attributes. capable of interbreeding
species
chemical reactions that release energy from molecules using oxygen, more efficient
aerobic metablism
prokaryotes
lack internal membrane bound organelles. no nucleus
change in genetic makeup of a biological population over time
evolution
adaptations
structual, physiological or behavioral traits that increase an organism's chance of surviving. can come from mutations
sum total of all chemical reactions and work done in all cells of an organism
metabolism
shows evolutionary relationships. evidence from fossils, genome analysis and metabolic processes. shows history of organisms
phylogenic tree
comparative experiment
field study, look for differences between samples/groups. no manipulation involved.
