Bio chapter 1

Hypothesis

________ driven science- explaining nature.

Evolution

________- process where different kinds of living organisms are develop and diversify from their predecessors.

Charles

________ darwin theory of evolution- animals evolved from their predecessors.

Homeostasis

________- organisms have multiple regulatory mechanisms to maintain internal condition, internal functions, and cope with environmental stress for survival.

Growth

________ and development- ________ results in the addition of mass to an organism, and the formation of new cells and structures.

Biology

________- The study of life.

Biosphere

________- highest level of life.

Ecology

________- study of ecosystems.

Reproduction

________- organisms can reproduce.

Dynamics

________ of an ecosystem- recycling of chemical nutrients and unidirectional flow of energy.

Food chain

________- how every living thing gets food and how nutrients and energy are passed from creature to creature.

Discovery science

________- describes life at many levels from ecosystems down to cells and molecules.

Science

________- the approach to understanding the natural world that is based on inquiry.

Scientific theory

________- a tested explanation for a set of proven hypotheses.

Order

________- organisms are highly organized coordinated structures that have one or more cells.

Energy

________ processing- All organisms use a source of energy for their metabolic activities.

Abiotic organisms

________- nonliving things.

Biotic organisms

________- living things.

Natural selection

________- animals who adapt the best survive.

Hypothesis

________- a non- definite explanation for something thats observable, or an educated guess for a possible cause for something.

Evolution

________- change in animals overtime.

how every living thing gets food and how nutrients and energy are passed from creature to creature

kingdom plantae(plants)

uses photosynthesis

kingdom fungi (fungi)

are decomposers

kingdom animalia (animals)

eat to get energy

evolution

change in animals overtime

charles darwin theory of evolution

animals evolved from their predecessors

natural selection

animals who adapt the best survive

artificial selection

selective breeding by humans

scientific method

observation, question, create hypothesis, test hypothesis, results, draw conclusions, communicate results

prokaryotic cells

simple and smaller, has no nucleus, in bacteria

eukaryotic cells

larger and more complex, has a nucleus, in plants and animals

3 domains of life

bacteria, archaea, eukarya

bacteria and archaea

have prokaryotic cells

eukarya

have eukaryotic cells

eukarya include:

plants and animals
