Question 1

Question
1. Four characteristics of life: a. All life forms contain [blank_start]deoxyribonucleic acid[blank_end], which is called [blank_start]DNA[blank_end] b. All life forms have a method by which they [blank_start]extract energy[blank_end] from the surroundings and convert it into [blank_start]energy that sustains them[blank_end]. c. All life forms [blank_start]can sense changes[blank_end] in their surroundings and [blank_start]respond[blank_end] to those changes. d. All life forms [blank_start]reproduce[blank_end].
Answer
  • deoxyribonucleic acid
  • DNA
  • extract energy
  • energy that sustains them
  • can sense changes
  • respond
  • reproduce

Question 2

Question
2. DNA provides the [blank_start]information[blank_end] necessary to take a bunch of lifeless chemicals and turn them into an [blank_start]ordered living system[blank_end].
Answer
  • information
  • ordered living system

Question 3

Question
3. [blank_start]Metabolism[blank_end] can be split into two categories: (1) [blank_start]anabolism[blank_end], which involves using energy and simple chemical building blocks to produce large chemicals and structures and (2) [blank_start]catabolism[blank_end], which involves breaking down chemicals to produce energy and simple chemical building blocks.
Answer
  • anabolism
  • catabolism
  • Metabolism

Question 4

Question
4. The vast majority of energy that sustains life comes from [blank_start]the sun[blank_end]. [blank_start]Producers[blank_end] use that energy to make food for themselves via a process called [blank_start]photosynthesis[blank_end]. Consumers get energy from the producers by [blank_start]eating them[blank_end]. Consumers can be split into three categories: [blank_start]herbivores[blank_end] (which eat only plants), [blank_start]carnivores[blank_end] (which eat only non plants), and [blank_start]omnivores[blank_end] (which eat plants and non plants). The energy of dead producers and consumers is recycled back into creation by [blank_start]decomposers[blank_end].
Answer
  • the sun
  • Producers
  • photosynthesis
  • eating them
  • herbivores
  • carnivores
  • omnivores
  • decomposers

Question 5

Question
Producers are often called [blank_start]autotrophs[blank_end], the Greek roots of which literally mean "self-feeder". Consumers and decomposers are often called [blank_start]heterotrophs[blank_end], which literally means "other-feeder".
Answer
  • autotrophs
  • heterotrophs

Question 6

Question
6. Living organisms are equipped with structures called [blank_start]receptors[blank_end], which receive information about their surroundings. God's creation is always [blank_start]changing[blank_end], which is why these structures are necessary for survival.
Answer
  • receptors
  • changing

Question 7

Question
In asexual reproduction, the characteristics and traits inherited by the offspring are, under normal circumstances, [blank_start]identical[blank_end] to the parent. In sexual reproduction, under normal circumstances, the offspring's traits and characteristics are some [blank_start]mixture[blank_end] of each parent's traits and characteristics. When [blank_start]mutations[blank_end] occur, the offspring can possess traits that are incredibly different from those of the parent or parents.
Answer
  • identical
  • mixture
  • mutations

Question 8

Question
8. In the scientific method, the scientist starts by [blank_start]observing[blank_end] the world around him. He then forms a [blank_start]hypothesis[blank_end] to explain some aspect of how the world functions. He then [blank_start]collects data[blank_end] in an attempt to test his [blank_start]hypothesis[blank_end]. If a large amount of [blank_start]data[blank_end] confirms the [blank_start]hypothesis[blank_end], it becomes a [blank_start]theory[blank_end], which is tested with even more [blank_start]data[blank_end]. If it continues to be confirmed over several generations, it might become a [blank_start]scientific law[blank_end].
Answer
  • observing
  • hypothesis
  • collects data
  • hypothesis
  • data
  • hypothesis
  • theory
  • data
  • scientific law

Question 9

Question
9. Scientists once believed that life could spring from nonliving things. This was called [blank_start]spontaneous[blank_end] [blank_start]generation[blank_end], and it was refuted in the mid 1800s by [blank_start]Louis[blank_end] [blank_start]Pasteur[blank_end]. The story of how the scientific community believed in it for so long demonstrates that science has [blank_start]limitations[blank_end].
Answer
  • spontaneous
  • generation
  • Louis
  • Pasteur
  • limitations

Question 10

Question
10. The newest version of spontaneous generation is called [blank_start]abiogenesis[blank_end], and it claims that long ago, very simple life forms [blank_start]spontaneously[blank_end] appeared through [blank_start]chemical[blank_end] [blank_start]reactions[blank_end].
Answer
  • abiogenesis
  • spontaneously
  • chemical
  • reactions
