Characteristics of Life | Levels of Organization | Microscope |
---|---|---|
What is the cell.
What is the basic unit of life?
|
What are organs.
What is the level of organization that comes after tissues?
|
What is to study small organisms that you cannot see with the naked eye.
What is the function of the compound microscope?
|
What is Homeostasis.
What is the process by which organisms maintain a stable internal environment?
|
What is a community of living organisms interacting with their environment.
Define the word 'ecosystem'.
|
What is two lenses.
How many lenses does a compound microscope have?
|
What is the pupil dilating when the lights are turned back on.
What is an example of responding to stimuli?
|
What is because populations consist of just one species of organisms and a community is all of the species of organisms in the same environment.
How are populations different from communities?
|
What is the coarse knob is for large adjustments and the fine knob is for detailed clarity (small adjustments).
Explain the importance of the coarse and fine focus knobs on the microscope.
|
What is waste products.
How do plants and animals demonstrate the characteristic of energy use? (How do we know that these organisms took in energy?)
|
What is a large geographical area characterized by specific climate and ecosystem (e.g., rainforest, desert, tundra, etc.).
Define the term 'biome' and give an example of a biome.
|
What is to reduce the risk of damaging the slide and to easily locate the specimen.
Why is it important to start with the lowest power objective when focusing the microscope?
|
What is Metabolism, Reproduction, Cellular Organization, Homeostasis, Adaptation through Evolution, Response to Stimuli, Growth & Development, and DNA.
What are the characteristics of life, in order of MR. CHARGED?
|
What is cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism, population, community, ecosystem, biome, and biosphere.
List the levels of organization from smallest to largest.
|
What is the higher intensity can improve the visibility of the microscope but also cause a glare on the slide.
How does the light intensity affect how much you can see of the specimen when looking into the microscope?
