Question Answer
Abiotic Not derived from living organisms
Anaerobic & AerobIc without oxygen & with oxygen
Prokaryotes No nucleus or organelles ; live in harsh environments Ex. Archea
Chemo-synthetic Uses inorganic molecules as a source of energy & converts them into organic substances
Heterotrophs & Autotrophs Cannot synthesis its own food so must eat other things to survive & Synthesizes its own food from non-living things
Endosymbiosis & Endosymbiotic Theory Two organisms in close association over a long period of time Large prokaryote engulfed smaller ones (mitochondria & chloroplasts)
5 Major Extinctions Ordivication: oldest end- Devonian: marine species Permian: biggest end- Triassic: asteroid or volcano Cretaceous: killed dinos (Holecene / Anthropocene: climate change & people?)
8 Taxa (largest to smallest) Domains (3) Kingdoms (6) Phylum, Class, Order Family, Genus & species
Lytic Cycle (Virulent Phages reproduce this way) 1. Attachment 2. Penetration (Phage DNA enters) 3. Biosynthesis 4. Assembly 5. Release
Lysogenic Cycle (Temperate Phages reproduce by both cycles) 1. Viral DNA incorp. into bacteria 2. cell & prophage reproduce 3. Remains inactive until stimulated 4. after stimulation, switches to Lytic Cycle
Domain #1 Bacteria auto & hetero unicellular prokaryote (no nucleus) has Peptidoglycan in cell wall ex. terburculosis
Domain #2 Archea auto & hetero unicellular prokaryote (no nucleus) NO Peptidoglycan in cell wall ex. extremophiles
Domain # 3 Eukarya 4 Kingdoms auto & hetero uni or multi cellular eukaryotes (have nucleus)
Eukarya > Protista auto & hetero Cell Wall = Cellulose ex. Giant Kelp
Eukarya > Fungi Heterotroph only Cell Wall = Chitin ex. mushroom
Eukarya > Plantae Autotroph only Cell Wall = Cellulose / Fiber ex. Sunflower
Eukarya > Animalia Heterotrph only Cell Wall = NONE ex. Sponge
Sporophyte Asexual phase (2n) makes haploid spores by meiosis ex. the tree stage Spores > Meiosis > Gametophyte Gen
Gametophyte Sexual phase (n) Makes gametes (sperm & egg) w/ mitosis ex. pollination Dependent on Sporophyte Gen
Tracheids 1 of 2 Xylem cells: dead, long, thin, moves water and passes through pits (region without cell wall)
Vessel Elements 2 of 2 Xylem cells: dead, aligned end-to-end found mainly in angiosperms (encased seeds)
Sieve-tube Elements 1 of 2 Phloem cells: alive, chains of pores for transport with sieve plates
Companion Cells 2 of 2 Phloem cells: alive, connected to sieve tubes by plasmodesmata
1. Epidermis (roots & shoots) Outer tissue in plants
2. Cortex / Endodermis (roots & shoots) Inner with Ground Tissue
3. Stele (roots & shoots) Vascular Bundle & Pericycle (outer layer that produces secondary roots)
Petiole Connects leaf to stem
1. Epidermis (leaf) Top & bottom of leaf; cuticle & stomata
2. Mesophyle (leaf) Spongy region sandwiched between lower & upper epidermis where photosynthesis happens
3. Vascular Tissue Bundle (leaf) Xylum & Phloem live here; continues with stem
Male Plant Organs Stamen (Anther (top) & Filament (long))
Female Plant Organs Pistil (singlular) / Carpel (multiple) (Stigma (top), Style (long) Ovary)
Parts of Plant Embryo Epicotyle = becomes shoot tip Hypocotyle = terminates in radicle Radicle = embryonic root
