cellular/cell
all life is composed of cells
energy processing
uses chemical energy to process
growth and development
inherited genes control growth and development
response to environment
detect and respond to stimulus in environment
reproduction
organisms reproduce their own kind
homeostasis
maintaining a constant internal environment
evolutionary adaptation
happens over generations heritable traits are passed down
DNA and genomes
carry genetic information in DNA
organization
cell hierarchy of life, cell and tissue to organs to organisms
information
DNA/genome, growth and development information in DNA
energy and matter
relates to energy processing
interactions
microscale and macroscale cell to cell and molecules within cells and community and ecosystems
evolution
theory of how contemporary species arose from ancestors through descent with modification
emergent property
arise as move to higher levels due to arrangement and interaction of parts within a system ex) a bike works only when all parts connect in the right way
atom
the smallest unit of matter that retains the properties of an element
molecules
two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds
organelles
any of several membrane enclosed structures with special functions, suspended in cytosol of eukaryotic cells
cells
lifes unit of structure and function, the smallest unit of organization that preforms all activities of life
tissues
an integrated group of cells with a common structure function or both
organs
a specialized center of body function composed of several different types of tissues
organisms
individual living things
population
a group of individuals in the same species that live in the same area and interbreed producing offspring
communities
all the organisms that are in an area, assemblage of different species living close enough for interaction
ecosystems
all the organisms in an area with the abiotic factors they interact with
biospheres
all life on earth and all the places where life exists
central dogma/gene expression
DNA to RNA to protein
negative feedback loop
glucose regulation
positive feedback loop
milk production in mammals
two cell types
prokaryotic and eukaryotic
three domains
bacteria, archaea, eukarya
evolutionary adaptation
heritable characteristics of organisms that enhance survival and reproduction in specific environments
qualitative data
notes and pictures
quantitative data
numbers
why should an experiment have two hypothesis
they provide a testable guide for analyzing results
element
a substance that cant be broken down into other substances by chemical reactions
four elements for life
hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon
isotope
different forms of an element each with different number of neutrons
ways of using radioactive isotopes
dating fossils, diagnosing medical issues, agricultural use
covalent bonds
two atoms share electrons in outer shell
ionic bond
electron transferred from one atom to the other
hydrogen bonds
weak attraction between two molecules
van der waals
occur when molecules are close together
