Q

What are some questions science can’t answer?

C-1.1-5

A

What is right and wrong, what is meaningful, why are we here, what is the meaning of life.

17
Q

What is the definition of homeostasis?

D1.1-9

A

Living organiams must br able to maintain a relatively stable internal envionment, despite changes in their external enviornment.

Our body temperature, pH balance, Salt balance, etc.

18
Q

What purpose does the dependent variable serve?

E1.2-7

A

It is the variable that relies on the independent variable to function.

Independent is the cause, dependent is the effect.

E1.2-7

19
Q

what is the y axis in a variable?

E1.2-7

A

The dependent axis or the effect.

E1.2-7

20
Q

what is the x axis known as?

E1.2-7

A

The independent variable or the cause.

E1.2-7

21
Q

What do theories offer based on data/experiments?

b1.2-3

A

Explanations

Theories offer explanations based on data/experiments

22
Q

what is the law of superposition?

B1.2-3

A

the rock layers deposit on top of each other over time.

B1.2-3

23
Q

What is a model?

C-1.2-4

A

A model is a simplified version of complex phenomena and helps visually explain

A simpler version of the object the model is representing

24
Q

What is Qualitative data?

A1.2-2

A

Descriptive - uses words/descriptions.(Complexity/design of the cell; presence of organic tissue in dinosaur bones)

A1.1-2

25
Q

What is the control group?

F-1.2-6

A

The group that does not recieve the experimental treatment.

Allows for comparisons between experimental vs. control groups; allows us to determine cause/effect

26
Q

What is an experimental group?

F-1.2-6

A

The group that receives the experimental treatment.

Mr. Birkmire’s example: the cancer cell group that receives the medicine

27
Q

What do humans share 50% of their DNA with

A1.2-2

A

BANANAS!!

28
Q

When experimenting, what kind of environment should you be testing in?

D1.2-8

A

A well-controlled, stable enviroment with minimal variables.

You should minimize your variables so that your enviroment does not affect your experiment!

29
Q

What is the definition of observation?

A

Using 1 or more of the 5 senses, states a fact.

Observation is the 1st step of the Scientific Method

30
Q

What is the Endoplasmic Recticulum (ER) do in the Eukaryote Stucture?

D2.1-6 and 7

A

It produces and tranports protiens. Studded with ribosomes that create the actual proteins

This lets the protiens travel to the Golgi Apparatus

31
Q

Which part of the Eukaryote Stucture recieves protiens from the ER( Endoplasmic Recticulum)?

D2.1-6 and 7

A

Golgi Apparatus

The Golgi Appratus also modifies/labels per destination, and packages protiens into vesicles.

32
Q

Which part in the Eukaryote Stucture holds DNA inside?

D2.1-6 and 7

A

The Nucleus

DNA is organiized into many linear chromonsones.

33
Q

What is a vesicle inside of the Eukaryote structure?

D2.1-6 and 7

A

“Packages” for transporting materials through cytoplasm or across membranes through fusion.

34
Q

What are the three parts of the cell theory?

D-2.1-3

A
  1. All living things are made out of cells
  2. All cells come from preexisting cells
  3. Cells perform almost all functions of living things
35
Q

A collection of organs that carry out specific functions within an organism is called:

F-2.1-4

A

Organ system

Examples: Respiratory system, cardiovascular system, digestive system

F-2.1-4

36
Q

what are some eukaryotic cells examples

A
  1. plants
  2. humans/animals
