What are the five basic themes in biology

-Biological systems interact -Structure and function are inter-related -Information must be transferred -Life depends on a continuous input and transfer of energy -Populations change over time through the process of evolution

All members of the same species occupying the same area at the same time constitute a

Population

By definition an organism this is eukaryotic

Possesses a nucleus

In deductive reasoning we begin with Blake and make blank based on that information

Premises and conclusions

Which sequence represents the pattern of energy flow within an ecosystem

Producers consumers and decomposers

Which cells do not have a nucleus or other membrane enclosed organelles

Prokaryotic cells

You discover an organism that is eukaryotic unicellular and photosynthetic based on this evidence to which group would you assign this organism

Protists

The human body is made up of specialize cells that perform different functions for example a neuron is a special cell of the nervous system receives and transmit signals throughout the body to perform these tasks the neuron uniquely possess posses branch protoplasmic protrusion call dendrites and axons which conduct a signal to and from it's so funny this illustrate which of the five major biological themes

Interrelation of structure and function and biological system

Which is a characteristics a good hypothesis

It is falsifiable

All of the genes present in a population make up its gene pool

True

Changing your view of reality involves a paradigm shift

True

Information in living organisms is transmitted by which mechanism(s)?

genes, hormones, neurotransmitters

Similar families of organisms our next group together in the same

Order

What are units of hereditary information

genes

DNA molecule is made up of

nucleotides

Which statement best describes the autotrophic organisms

Autotroph synthesize macromolecules from CO2 water and energy

What is a distinct characteristic of asexual reproduction

A cell splittling into identical halves

When tissues organize they form

An organ

Consider the statement biological systems what does this mean

Biological organisms are interdependent

Adaptive involves changes in ecosystem rather than an individual organism

False

An organism that reproduces asexually produces genetically variable offspring

False

I falsifiable hypothesis cannot be tested

False

The scientific name for coffee is coffea aribaca more specifically the species name is Arabica

False

The two domains of prokaryotes are bacteria and fungi

False

An organism that is neither prokaryotic nor photosynthetic and must obtain its nutrients by secreting digestive enzymes into the environment belongs to which group of organisms

Fungi

The correct example bread mold chimpanzee Oak tree Prokaryotes unicellular eukaryotes

Fungi animal plants bacteria protists

Primary purpose of homeostasis is to

Maintain a constant internal environment

Using the linnaean system of nomenclature corn is called Zea mays what is the specific epithet in this name

Mays

In living organisms chemical reactions responsible for growth and repair and nutrition or collectively referred to as

Metabolism

Which scenario best describes a double blind study

Neither the investigator nor the subjects know who is the experimental or control group

What's deductive reasoning to draw conclusions from specific observations

No

What is a byproduct of photosynthesis

Oxygen

Which organizational unit includes the few species of organisms

Population

Which process is most directly associated with the theory of evolution

Populations changing over time

Suppose we want to examine the effect of fertilizer on the size of zucchini producers and therefore we need to establish the experimental and control groups to control groups for this experiment would be defined under which conditions

Soil water sun and zucchini seeds

What is a subspecialty of systematics in the science of naming and classifying organisms

Taxonomy

Which is the benefit of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction

The interaction of the genes from both parents allow genetic variation

What is the purpose of cilia and flagella of cells

They provide music for the cell

Darien experiment what is the purpose of a control group

To ensure that the results observed in the experimental group is due to the variable being tested

Which stimulus most directly cause the Venus fly trap to catch an insect

Touch

Which she has used to successfully do you activate specific human please modify use for bio fuel production and modify agricultural crops

CRISPR/Cas9

Suppose a particular Pro Tien is produced INXS of yourselves means what kind of mechanism will intervene to stop production

Homeostatic

CRISPR research can decrease the spread of what type of disease

Zika and other mosquito borne diseases

What statement best describes biology

the science of life

What is an end product of cellular respiration

Carbon dioxide

Which phylum to humans belong

Chordata

What type of molecule carries the hereditary info of an organism

DNA

Which describes a result of sexual reproduction

2 sex cells combine to form a fertilized cell

What would be the ultimate effect of an ecosystem if decomposers were eliminated

All life would eventually cease as nutrients would no longer be available

Which statement best describes the cell theory

All living organisms are composed of basic units called cells

What is the smallest chemical unit that retains the characteristic properties of a given element

Atom

Which statement concerning a scientific Theory is false

It is unchangeable
