Which term is not the name of a classification level? A. Allele B. Kingdom C. Order D. Phylum

Allele

Prey

An animal that is killed and eaten by another animal

Host

An organism that harbors a parasite, mutual partner, or commensal partner, typically providing nourishment and shelter

Organisms

Any living thing with one or more cells

Homologous structures

Are those features or organs that are shared by a very different species (ex: forelimbs bones in bats)

Human activities can alter an ecosystem and bring the extinction of species. Such activities except?

Assuring a habitat remains unaltered

All organic molecules have what element in common?

Carbon

This element is found in all living things. It is recycled when organisms die. It is transformed from one form to another through photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Carbon

Most organisms break down sugar to produce usable energy through the process of..?

Cellular respiration

Plantae

Contains photosynthetic organisms that produce their own food supply and yield energy at the base of many food chains

Limiting factors

Controls the populations growth process

Animals

Organism that is made of many parts but cannot make its own food. They are classified by whether they have a backbone or not

Multicellular

Organisms consisting of more than one cell, having differentiated cells that preform specialized functions. Most life that can be seen with the naked eye is this

What is the source of nearly all of the energy for producers and consumers?

Sunlight

Habitat

The area where an organism lives it's life including the living and nonliving factors

Energy

The capacity for doing work. It may be transformed from one to another

Chemical reaction

The changing of substances to other substances by the breaking of bonds in products

Cause

The condition or set of conditions which bring about an effect

Competition

This occurs when 2 or more organisms in a community rely or need similar limiting resources

Animalia

A major group of organisms, that are, in general, multicellular, capable of locomotion and responsive to their environment, and feed by consuming other organisms

Food webs

A representation of the linkages between food chains in a community

What is a major difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

Prokaryotes have no nucleus

Organic

A compound containing Carbon produced by a living thing

Organs

A group of tissues working together to preform a similar function

Chemical energy

Energy in chemical bonds of molecules

Antibiotic resistance in bacteria is the result of?

Genetic variation

The Morphology rhetenor butterfly. The name Morpho refers to the butterflies..?

Genus

What is the most specific classification category?

Genus

About 96% of the information in human DNA is found in gorilla DNA. This evidence supports what?

Gorillas and humans diverged from a common ancestor

Evidence for evolution includes the presence of (blank), which are similar structures shared by different species?

Homologous structures

Family

In biological classification, this is one of the most important ranks. It is more specific than order, but less than genus

Genus

In the classification system, this is a group of organisms with one or more related species

Glucose

Is a simple sugar that provides energy to organisms

Carbon

Is the basis of all living organisms and it is the foundation of organic substances

Any abiotic or biotic factor in an ecosystem that causes a population's size to slow or decrease is a (blank) factor..?

Limiting

The process of (blank) increases the genetic variation as it produces gametes for sexual reproduction.

Meiosis

Bacteria

One celled organism that reproduce by fission

Carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere primarily by the..?

Respiration of consumers

Which structure or organelle is found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

Ribosomes

Ticks suck blood from a host organism. This is an example of?

Parasitism

Classification

Placing an organism in sets of categories based on its characteristics

What kingdom contains only producers?

Plantae

Ecosystem

Populations and abiotic factors with which they interact in the setting of a community

Sexual reproduction

Process by which two cells from different parents unite to produce the first cell of a new organism

Organisms that use energy from the sun to make their own food are called?

Producers

What is an explanation of why producers are always found at the lowest tropic level?

Producers convert light energy into chemical energy

Eukaryotes

These are cells where the genetic material is contained in membrane-bound nuclei

Base

These are chemical substances with a measurable pH above that of 7.0 on a 0-14 scale

Species

These are groups of reproducing populations that are I isolated from other groups

Prokaryotes

These are organisms where the genetic material is not bond by a nucleus. They are usually unicellular

Ancestor

These are parents, parents of parents etc.

Carbon cycle

These are the components of the reservoirs of Carbon that are exchanged in our environment

Biotic

These are the living organisms on earth

Abiotic

These are the non living factors of the environment

DNA

This holds an organism hereditary information

Photosynthesis

This is a chemical process that uses light to process Carbon dioxide in plants

Gametes

This is a haploid cell with half the reproductive information from the parent

Food chains

This is a path for the transfer of matter and energy through an ecosystem by eating and being eaten

Toxins

This is a poisonous substance that is produced by living cells or organisms and is capable of causing disease when introduced into living tissues

Gene

This is a segment of Dina on the chromosome that is coded for a particular trait

Element

This is a substance that cannot be broken down further by chemical means

Decomposers

This is an organism that breaks down and gains nutrients from dead organisms

Consumer

This is an organism that relies on the other organisms for its food and energy supply; also called a heterotroph

Producer

This is an organism that supplies matter and energy, also known as an autotroph

Plant

This is any living thing without the power of locomotion that orbit energy from sunlight or make their own food

Matter
