tissue whole organism Y. Z. X Y Z W Open-ended question: Prokaryotic cells are generally much smaller than eukaryotic cells. Part A: Identify a structural difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells that is directly related to their difference in size. Part B: Based on the structural difference, explain why prokaryotic cells can be much smaller than eukaryotic cells. Part C: Describe one similarity between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells that is independent of size. Organic Chemistry Vocabulary Adhesion Cohesion Atom Concentration Biological macromolecules monomer Freezing point carbohydrate amino acid protein Macromolecule lipid nucleic acid enzyme catalyst pH molecule specific heat
Cellular Respiration Part B: Describe how energy transformations involved in photosynthesis are related to energy transformations involved in cellular respiration. Cell Reproduction & Genetics Vocabulary Allele Cell cycle Chromosomes Cloning Co-dominance Crossing over Cytokinesis DNA replication Dominant inheritance Gamete Gene Gene splicing Gene therapy Gene recombination Genetic engineering Genetics Incomplete dominance Inheritance Interphase Meiosis Mitosis Multiple alleles Nondisjunction Polygenic trait Recessive inheritance Semiconservative replication Sex-linked trait Genetically modified organism genotype phenotype Concepts to Know Main Concept #1: Describe the events that occur during the cell cycle: interphase, nuclear division (i.e. mitosis), cytokinesis. The Cell cycle – period of time from the beginning of one cell division to the beginning of the next During the cell cycle, a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides to form two daughter cells, each of which then begins the cell cycle again Consists of 4 phases M phase – mitosis – the division of the cell nucleus and cytokinesis G1 – intense growth and activity S phase – copying of chromosomes
Ecology Vocabulary biosphere biome ecosystem biotic abiotic agriculture Aquatic Biochemical conversion bioenergetics trophic level decomposer biogeochemicalcycles food chain food web Ecological community Ecological consumer Ecology Endemic species Energy pyramid Energy transformation Environment Limiting factor Nonnative species Population Ecological Producer Species Succession Symbiotic relationship Terrestrial Habitat 1st idea: Living (biotic) and nonliving (abiotic) factors make up an ecosystem. of the following is NOT a basic need for a living organism in any habitat? Food (nutrients) water shelter (space) Rocks Biotic Abiotic Using the diagram of an ecosystem below, list 5 biotic and 5 abiotic components found in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Fill in the following chart which lists levels of ecological organization from the most basic (lowest) to the most complex (highest) with either an example of that level or a definition of the term. Level of Organization Example(s) Definition/explanation Organism A deer, an oak tree, a fish Population A herd of deer, a oak trees or a school of fish Group of organisms of the same species Community Ecosystem A nature center, like Robbins Park, a fallen log, a pond or lake Biome A region on Earth characterized by a specific climate and dominated by plants and
