Chapter 10 Kw Flashcards
Classification
Process by which living organisms are sorted into groups. Inside the groups they have similar features
Prokaryote
Uni cell
No nucleus or mbo
No visible feeding mechanism nutrients absorbed through cw or made internally by photosynthesis
Protoctista
Mainly uni cell Cellouse cw Nucleus and mbo some have chloro Some are sessile but others move by cilia flagella or amoeboid mechanism Hetero Auto Or both...aka parasitic
Fungus
Multi cell or uni cell CHitin Nucleus and mbo no cplast or cphyll No mechanisms for locomotion Most have body or mycelium made of treads or haephae Food store glycogen Sapro
Plantae
Multi cell Cellouse cw Nucleus and mbo Chlloro Most nah Move but gametes of some move with with cilla flagella sometimes Food store starch Auto
Animalia
Multi cell No cell wall Nucleus and mbo No chloro Move with cilla flagella or contractile proteins as muscular organs sometimes Food store gylcogen Heterotrophic
bacteria
Found in all environment
70s ribosome
RNA polymerase has 5proteins
Archaebacteria
70s ribosome
RNA polymerase have 8-10 proteins
V. Similar to eukary ribosomes
Nah Have pepidoglycan cell wallCan live in extreme environment
Intraspecific variation
Differences between organisms within a species
Discontinuous variable
Characteristic than can only result in certain values
Continuous variable
Characteristic that can take any value within a given range
Adaptations
Characteristics that increase an organisms chance of survival
Anatomical adap
Physical features. Internal and external
Behavioural adap
The way organism acts. I ate or learned
Physiological adapation
Process that take place inside the body
