BIOLOGY 2 Flashcards
What is our body composed of that work together for our body to function Normally
Organ systems
Is a biological process in which different organisms have the ability to produce another of their kind. With this, organisms are able to improve their species and enhance their physical characteristics
Reproduction
It does not involve gametes or sex cells. This type of reproduction can be observed in some plants and in lower form of animals
Asexual Reproduction
Organism is reproduce by forming outgrowth, or a “bud” from a part of the parent organism’s body
Budding
Two types of budding
- Hydra budding
- Cactus budding
An organism is produced from the detached body part of its parent
Fragmentation
Some plants can grow from cutting them up and replanting them
Fragmentation - plant cuttings
A parent organism(e.g. Unicellular organism) splits into two daughter organisms. This is usually done by prokaryotic organisms and some invertebrates
Binary fission
Is a form of asexual reproduction in which females(rare cases, males) produce eggs that develop without fertilization
Parthenogenesis
Asexual reproduction where a plant part is used to reproduce another plant
Vegetative reproduction
An asexual reproduction that involves the production of spores, which are specialized asexual reproductive cells
Spore formation
What are the 9 types of asexual reproduction
- Budding
- Fragmentation
- Binary fission
- Parthenogenesis
- Vegetative reproduction
- Marcotting
- Grafting
- Propagation
- Spore formation
It involves the union of gametes (Sperm and Egg) requiring two parent organisms
Sexual Reproduction
What is the fertilized egg?
Zygote
What will a zygote become to be or will turn out to be?
Embryo
What are the 3 methods of Sexual Reproduction
(1) Pollination
(2) External Fertilization
(3) Internal Fertilization
what fertilization where the females lay the eggs in the water and the male squirts the sperm in the same area
External Fertilization
The fertilization occurs within the female. It occurs in mammals, insects, birds, reptiles.
Internal Fertilization
Plants and animals have progressed differently. Based on phylogenetic
evidence or the evolutionary history of organisms, the primitive ancestors of plants and animals was likely unicellular eukaryotes.
Development
A development where cells are fixed
Plant Development
A development where cells are motile
Animal development
IN THIS PROCESS, AN ORGANISM TAKES IN, DIGESTS, AND USES THE DIFFERENT SUBSTANCES OBTAINED FROM VARIOUS FOOD SOURCES. THESE SUBSTANCES CALLED
NUTRIENTS, PROVIDE ENERGY FOR THE ORGANISMS METABOLIC PROCESSES SUCH AS GROWTH, MAINTENANCE, REPRODUCTION AND EVEN IMMUNITY.
NUTRITION
Two types of modes of nutrition in plants
- Autotrophic
- Heterotrophic
What are the Classification of animals on the basis of their eating
habits
- Herbivorous
- Carnivorous
- Omnivorous
- Parasites
- Scavengers
Animals that eat plants. For
example:cow, goat, sheep etc.
Herbivorous
Animals that eat other animals. For
example: Lion, lizard etc.
Carnivorous
Animals that eat plants as well as
other animals. For example:dog,
beer, humans etc.
Omnivorous
Animals that get their food by
living inside or outside the body
of other living organism. For
example: lice, tape worm etc.
Parasites
Animals which feed on the dead
bodies of animals. For example:
vulture, jackal etc.
Scavengers
GASES ARE IMPORTANT BECAUSE THEY ARE REQUIRED FOR DIFFERENT METABOLIC REACTIONS TO PROCEED. THUS, IT IS ALSO AN IMPORTANT BIOLOGICAL PROCESS THAT ALLOWS ORGANISMS TO SURVIVE. THROUGH THIS PROCESS DIFFERENT GASES ARE TRANSFERRED IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS ACROSS RESPIRATORY SURFACE.
GAS EXCHANGE
What particular body part in the lungs where gas exhange happens?
Blood capillary and alveolus
INVOLVES THE USE OF OXYGEN PRODUCED BY PHOTOSYNTHETIC ORGANISMS AND THE RELEASE OF CARBON DIOXIDE TO THE ENVIRONMENT AS A WASTE PRODUCT OF RESPIRATION.
GAS EXCHANGE
What are the 6 types of Gas exhange?
- Gas exchange: cell membrane
- Gas exchange: Skin
- Gas exchange: Gill system
- Gas exchange: Tracheal systems
- Gas exchange: Lungs
- Gas exchange: Leaves
