Final Jeopardy

What are the steps to the scientific method?

2

1. Observe a problem2. Form Hypothesis

3. Experiment4. Analyze Results

5. Draw conclusions & share

3

4

What are the 4 major biomolecules of life?

5

ProteinsCarbohydrates

LipidsNucleic Acids

6

What is the name for special proteins that speed up

chemical reactions in the body without being used up in the

process?

7

Enzymes

8

What is the equation for Photosynthesis?

9

6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2

10

Compare & Contrast the Krebs and Calvin

Cycles

11

Calvin – part of photosynthesis- CO2 and sunlight energy are put together into glucose

Krebs – part of respiration- Glucose is broken down into CO2 and energy is released

12

What are the 6 levels of organization in

Ecology?

13OrganismPopulationCommunityEcosystem

BiomeBiosphere

14

Someone come to the board and draw/label an exponential and logistic growth curve. Which is more true to nature?

15

16

Differentiate between the following types of symbiosis:

MutualismParasitism

Commensalism

17 Mutualism – both partners benefitParasitism – one organism

benefits while the other is harmedCommensalism – one organism

benefits while the other is unaffected

Environmental Problems:1.What are the 3 primary Greenhouse

gasses and what do they cause2.What is the result of fat-soluble

pollutants moving up the food chain and what is this process called?

18

19

1. CO2, CH4, & H2O – cause global warming2. Biomagnification results in fat-soluble pollutants concentrating in top predators in a food chain

Define the following terms:Ecological SuccessionEcological Equivalents

Intraspecific CompetitionInvasive Species

Type 1 Growth Curve

20

21Ecological Succession – gradual change in the plant species of an ecosystem over time

Ecological Equivalents – organisms that have evolved similar traits due to similar habitats

Intraspecific Competition – competition between members of the same species

Invasive Species – species that do not belong in an environment

Type 1 Growth Curve – reproductive strategy in which most offspring live until they reach close to their

maximum life span and then die off

22

What was the name of the guy who came up with the theory of evolution and what two types of animals on what island chain did he study in order to come

up with his theory?

23

Charles Darwin studied finches and giant tortoises on the

Galapagos Islands

24

What 4 types of isolation may lead to speciation?

25

ReproductiveTemporal

GeographicBehavorial

26What types of selection are shown in the following figures? Which of the 3 will most likely cause one species to

speciate into two?

27

Stabilizing Directional Disruptive

28

Differentiate between homologous, analogous, and vestigial structures

29 Homologous – similar structure but different function (shows evolutionary relationship)

Analogous – similar function but different structure (shown no evolutionary relationship)

Vestigial – had a function in an earlier ancestor but no longer

Human hand Bat wingMole foot

30

Compare & Contrast Divergent, Convergent, & Coevolution

31Divergent – when a species splits into several species and they get more different from one another over time

Convergent – when unrelated species begin to become more similar to each other over time due to similar niches

Coevolution – when two species evolve in response to each other

32

What are the 3 tenants of the Cell Theory?

331. All organisms are made

of cells.2. All existing cells are

produced by other living cells.

3. The cell is the most basic unit of life.

34

What are the two main types of cells and how does one

distinguish between the two types?

35

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic

Eukaryotic cells are larger, have a nucleus, and have

organelles

36

Explain what is going on in the following pictures

37

SimpleDiffusion

FacilitatedDiffusion

Active Transport

38

What are 4 main differences between mitosis & meiosis?

39

Mitosis Meiosis

Creates diploid somatic cells Creates haploid gametes

One round of division Two rounds of division

Creates identical daughter cells

Creates unique sperm & eggs

Homologous pairs never cross Crossover of genes in homologous chromosomes

40Name the following organelles and

describe their function

41

Answers vary depending on letters asked

42

What is the central dogma of molecular genetics?

37

replication

transcription

translation

44In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, green shells are dominant over brown shells. Leonardo, who is heterozygous for a green shell,

marries the lovely Mona Lisa, who has a brown shell. What are the

genotypic and phenotypic ratios of their possible offspring?

45

Genotype – 50/50 Gg/gg

Phenotype – 50/50 green/brown shelled

46

What shape does DNA form into, what is the name for the

monomers that make up the nucleic acid, what molecules form the backbone, and what molecules form the “rungs” of the ladder?

47DNA is a double helix of nucleotides. The sides of the double helix are made of the

sugars & phosphates and the rungs of the ladder are made of nitrogenous bases

hydrogen bond covalent bond

48

Differentiate between dominant/recessive genes,

codominant genes, genes that show incomplete dominance,

and polygenetic traits

49Dominant/recessive – normal patterns

(recessive trait is only seen in homozygous recessive organisms)

Codominance – both versions of gene are seen completely

Incomplete – blending of both versions of the gene

Polygenetic – multiple genes affect the phenotype
