Organization,Classification,Metabolism

Question 0

What is the classification system for organisms?

Answer 0

Domain-Archae,Bacteria,Eukarea
Kingdom-Animalia,plantae,fungi,monera,protista
Phylum
Class
Order
Family
Genus
Species-Specific name

Question 1

What are the levels of organization?

Answer 1

Biosphere
Biome
Ecosystem
Community
Population
Organism
Organ System,Organ,Tissue
Cell
Organelle
Molecule
Atom
Subatomic Particle

Question 2

Scientific Names

Answer 2

Genus-Always capitalized and underlined/italicized
Specific Epithet-Always underlined/italicized

Scientific names are important because common names vary around the world, latin based scientific names don’t

Question 3

Kingdom Monera:Characteristics

Answer 3

Prokaryotic
Single-celled
Have cell walls
Autotrophic
Aquatic environment
Producers (photosynthesis)
Very simple
Ex:Cyanobacteria

Question 4

Kingdom Protista:Classifications

Answer 4

Prokaryotic
Single-celled
Only algae have cell walls,are autotrophic,and are producers
All others are heterotrophic
All aquatic except slime molds
Slime molds are decomposers
Protozoans are consumers
Simple complexity

Question 5

Kingdom Fungi:Characteristics

Answer 5

Eukaryotic
Single and multicellular
Chilten cell walls
Heterotrophic
Warm,moist,terrestrial environments
Decomposers
Moderate complexity
Ex:Mushrooms,mold,yeast

Question 6

Kingdom Plantae:Characteristics

Answer 6

Eukaryotic
Multicellular
Cellulose cell walls
Autotrophic
Fresh water or terrestrial environments
Producers
Complex
Ex:Trees,flowers,grass,ferns,mosses

Question 7

What is photosynthesis?

Answer 7

When energy from the sun is converted into forms that are useable by all living organisms. Only autotrophs and those containing chlorophyll can perform this (plants,algae,cyanobacteria)
Anabolism-The build up of metabolism

Question 8

Photosynthesis Equation

Answer 8

light energy
6CO2 + 6H2O &raquo_space;»»> C6H12O6 + 6O2
carbon water chlorophyll sugar oxygen
dioxide

Question 9

Cellular Respiration

Answer 9

Occurs in ALL living organisms (autotrophs and heterotrophs)

Catabolism-break down of metabolism

Question 10

Cellular Respiration Equation

Answer 10

C6H12O6 + 6O2 &raquo_space;»» 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
sugar oxygen carbon water energy
dioxide

Question 11

Photosynthesis Experiment

Answer 11

Elodea and water in a test tube, upside down in another glass of water under light will produce oxygen

Question 12

Cellular Respiration Experiment

Answer 12

Yeast,sugar and water in graduated cylinder. Fill test tube with solution. Put test tube in glass upside down. Produced carbon dioxide
