Q

What are the two categories of reproducers?

A

Asexual and sexual reproduction

21
Q

Which type of reproducer is made up of only one parent?

22
Q

Offspring from which type of reproducer develops from the
combination of receiving 50% chromosomes from a female
parent and 50% chromosomes from a male parent?

A

Sexual reproduction

23
Q

Which type of reproduction requires 2 parents from each
gender (1 male, 1 female) to create offspring?

A

Sexual reproduction

24
Q

How does offspring develop from asexual reproductions?

A

Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent

25
What are cells?
The building blocks of all living things.
26
What are the 3 rules of Cell Theory?
1. All living thing come form one or more cells 2. Cell are basic unit of life 3. All cell's arise form a pre-exising cells
27
What does autotrophic mean?
requiring only carbon dioxide or carbonates as a source of carbon and a simple inorganic nitrogen compound for metabolic synthesis of organic molecules (such as glucose) autotrophic plants — compare heterotrophic.
28
Whats a food chain
Any organism that consumes other organisms for food in order to create energy for the body.
29
Define the characteristic: Obtains energy
to gain possession of; acquire; get
30
2 ways different organisms can obtain energy
Autotrophism and heterotrophism
31
Plants are heterotrophic. True or False
False
32
What type of organisms are heterotrophic?
organisms who cannot produce their own food are called as heterotrophs.
33
Define biotic
relating to or resulting from living things, especially in their ecological relations.
34
Define abiotic
physical rather than biological; not derived from living organisms.
35
What is growth/ developments
The increase of size and mass of an organism.
36
Define development
involves transformation of an organism as it goes through the growth process.
37
what is sensitivity?
The ability for any organism to respond to internal or external stimulus.
38
What does Homeostasis
The internal balance of an organism.
39
Define adaptations
the action or process of adapting or being adapted.
40
The classroom thermostat is broken and the room is very hot and stuffy. How will your body internally respond to this external stimulus?
the act of sweating to cool the body down is a response
41

Low blood sugar causes people to feel irritable, confused and fatigued.
42
What are membrane-bound organelles?
Membrane-bound organelles are cellular structures that are bound by a biological membrane. The membrane may be a single layer or a double layer of lipids and typically with interspersed proteins.
43
Which category of cells does not contain membrane-bound organelles?
Prokaryotic
44
All categories of cells contain DNA. True or False
True
45
Which category of cells can create unicellular and multicellular organisms?
Eukaryotic organisms
46
What is the formula for total magnification when looking through a microscope?
Multiply the power of the ocular lens by the power of the objective being used.
47
What is the total magnification if the ocular lens is 10x and the objective being used in 40x?
400X magnification
