sexual reproduction

- offspring has a mix of genes from two parents - results in genetic diversity

rank the following steps of the generalized scientific method in order from the 1st step at the top to the last step at the bottom - analyze your data and draw conclusions - create a hypothesis to explain your observations and make predictions - carry out experiment to test the hypothesis and collect data - observe and ask questions about something in the natural world

1. observe and ask questions about something in the natural world 2. create a hypothesis to explain your observations and make predictions 3. carry out experiment to test the hypothesis and collect data 4. analyze your data and draw conclusions

in reproduction, what is transmitted to the offspring that will determine what the offspring are like? membranes energy DNA lipids

cells

what is the term for all the populations of different species that occupy the same location at the same time? organisms organelles organ system community

community

what process describes the cell division and growth of specialized tissues that produces a multicellular organism from a single, fertilized egg? homeostasis metabolism development taxonomy

development

An area of forest, including the organisms that occupy it and the nonliving components of its area, is an example of a habitat population ecosystem community

ecosystem

New complex functions and characteristics that arise when the lower level components of an organism interact are called ____ properties.

emergent

select all of the following that are characteristics of a scientific theory - encompass multiple hypotheses - a tentative hunch - widely accepted and supported - narrow scope - can be used to make predictions - falsifiable

encompass multiple hypotheses, widely accepted and supported, can be used to make predictions, falsifiable

all living things are composed of one or more cells, use ________ to grow and reproduce, and maintain a state of internal constancy

energy

the change in genes of a population over multiple generations can also be referred to as reproduction homeostasis adjustment evolution

evolution

hypotheses are often tested with an investigation called a experiment theory variable peer review

experiment

organ system

heart and blood vessels

consumer

heterotroph that obtains energy and nutrients by eating other organisms

the data and results of an experiment may support or reject a - sample size - variable - hypothesis - control

hypothesis

the chemical reactions that occur within cells and allow organisms to build molecules and use energy for their activities are collectively called the cell cycle decomposition metabolism organ systems

metabolism

atoms can bond together to form

molecules

plantae

multicellular; almost all are autotrophic organisms

the traits of individuals that have higher reproductive success in a particular environment become more common within a population due to decomposition the organization of life natural selection the ability to respond to a stimulus

natural selection

select all of the statements that are true about asexual reproduction offspring are virtually identical to each other two parents are required genetic information comes from only one parent genes from parents are mixed at each generation

offspring are virtually identical to each other and genetic information comes from only one parent

a leaf is composed of several tissues organized to work together and is a _________ of a plant

organ

multiple organs are linked together into organ stystems organelles molecules populations

organ systes

compartments within cells that carry out specific functions are called

organelles

what term refers to members of the same species living in the same place at the same time? ecosystem population biosphere organism

population

organisms that make their own food by obtaining energy and nutrients from nonliving sources are called herbivores producers consumers heterotrophs

producers

natural ________ selection is a mechanism of evolution in which certain individuals from a population exhibit enhanced reproductive success based on inherited characteristics

selection

a new combination of traits inherited from two parents is passed to offspring as a result of all types of reproduction sexual reproduction asexual reproduction

sexual reproduction

what is the basic unit of classification and is denoted by a unique two-part scientific name? domain family phylum species

species

what is the science of naming and classifying organisms? evolution taxonomy natural selection the scientific method

taxonomy

evolution has been operating on organisms since the first cells formed plants and other multicellular organisms arose the 1800's vertebrates arose

the first cells formed

independent variable

the manipulated portion of the experiment

what suggests that the current diversity of life evolved from a common ancestor? - the ability of organisms to reproduce - the loss of heat energy during metabolism - the similarities among organisms - the fact that different organisms use different molecules for the generation material

the similarities among organisms

organs are made up of tissues organisms organ systems ecosystems

tissues

true or false: natural selection is mechanism of evolution

true
