What is the chloroplast or cell wall.
Which parts of a cell are found in a plant cell, but NOT an animal cell?
|
4) What is the reproduction system
Which human organ system produces sperm or egg cells?
1) Digestive 2) respiratory 3) nervous 4) reproduction |
4) What is DNA
In living things, traits are passed on from one generation to the next by the transfer of:
1) blood 2) minerals 3) calories 4) DNA |
Organisms may compete for water, nutrients, light, space, or food.
What may animals compete over?
|
2) What is the way rocks were formed.
Rocks are classified as sedimentary, metamorphic, or igneous on the basis of the:
1) the age of rocks 2) way the rocks were formed 3) types of fossils the rocks contain 4) the number of minerals found in the rocks |
|
Where the food-making processes take place.
Why do plants need chloroplast?
|
2) Regulate Body Functions
Hormones regulate many slower body functions such as metabolism, growth, development, and reproduction
The main function of hormones in the human body is to:
1) identify and destroy microbes 2) regulate body functions 3) transport blood to cells 4) store energy |
1) What is a gene.
A structure that carries a single unit of hereditary information is a:
1) gene 2) sex cell 3) tissue 4) pedigree chart |
The organism with the best traits will survive over the weak, continue to reproduce offspring with the traits suited for survival.
What does the term "Survival of the fittest" explain?
|
4) What is the lithosphere: the lithosphere is the solid, rocky crust covering entire planet.
The thin layer of rock on Earth's surface is the:
1) Atmosphere 2) hemisphere 3) hydrosphere 4) lithosphere |
|

Chemical Digestion=when saliva begins to break down the food
What is the difference between mechanical and chemical digestion?
|
Half of its genes (50%)
A wolf receives genes from each of its own parents. About how many of its genes come from its mother?

What is the industrial revolution-and pollution/smoke causing the trees to become covered in smoke particles
In England in the late 1700's, what change favored the survival of dark colored moths?
|
Renewable: natural resources, such as water, sunlight, and crops that are constantly being recycled, or replaced by nature
Non-Renewable: natural resources, such as petroleum, minerals, and metals that are used more quickly than they can be replaced by na
What is the difference between a renewable and non-renewable resources?

(Tissues, organs, cells,) ____---->______----->_______Organ system |
4) What is the elimination of wastes
What is the role of the excretory system?
1) Protection from disease 3) generation of movement 2) Production of offspring 4) elimination of wastes |

If the allele for brown eyes (B) is dominant, and the allele for blue eyes (b) is recessive, which combination could produce a child with blue eyes?
|
What is biological adaptation.
The fur of a snowshoe rabbit changes to a lighter color in the winter. This allows the rabbit to blend in with its surroundings. This change is an example of :
1) extinction 2) competition 3) biological adaptation 4) ecological succession |
The Revolution of the earth around the sun causes seasons (365 days and 6 hours)
The Rotation of the earth around the sun causes day and night ( 23 hours and 56 minutes)
What causes seasonal changes on the earth?
What causes day and night on the earth? |
|
1) Cells
The basic life functions of an organism are carried on by: 1) Cells 2) Nutrients 3) Circulation 4) Digestion
|
What is the muscular system. The muscular system produces the force to move body parts with three types of muscles (skeletal, smooth, and cardiac).
Which body system generates force to create body movements such as walking and swimming?
|
75% Tall
25% Short
If you have the following results in offspring:
Ff, Ff, Ff, ff. What percent would have the dominant trait (tall) ? What percent would have the recessive trait( short)? |
2) Compete for food
Different species of carnivorous animals that share the same habitat in an ecosystem may:
1) become decomposers 2) compete for food 3) produce food on their own 4) mate with each other |
