Week 1 Flashcards
biology is…
the study of life + (non-living parts of the environment)
organisms share…
common traits that define life
6 traits that define life
evolve, growth, reproduce, sense/respond to stimuli, get/use materials/energy,maintain organized complexity
__ cant get materials/energy, reproude, or grow by themseleves
also dont fall into eukaryotic cells/prokaryotic cells
viruses
viruses need to infect a what…
host cell
eukaryotiv cells are/have
plants, animals, fungi/a nucleus, plasma membrane, can be unicellular/multicellular
aomeba are
unicellular eukaryotes
people are
multicellular eukaryotes
prokaryotic cells..
are bacteria/archaea that lack organelles; are unicellular; and have ribosomes
ribosomes
presence /absence of them help create proteins and bacteria need them in order to exist
organisms get/use energy by 2 ways
humans: consumption/plants: photosynthesis
homeostasis
living things need to maintain internal environment
bacteria grow by
enlarging cells and dividing to reproduce (binary fission = asexual reproduction)
animals/plants grow by
increasing # of cells in bodies via cell division
development
an organism becomes more complex
