The correct answers to the biology 100 exam 1 in 2023. It covers a wide range of topics in biology, including the characteristics of life, classification, taxonomic groups, biodiversity, scientific steps, matter and elements, properties of water, biomolecules (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, dna, rna, atp), cell types (prokaryotic, eukaryotic, archaean), cell structures and organelles, photosynthesis, cellular respiration, the endosymbiotic theory, and various cellular processes (diffusion, osmosis, facilitated transport, exocytosis, endocytosis). A comprehensive study guide that can be used by students to prepare for their biology 100 exam. It provides a detailed overview of the key concepts and principles covered in the course, and can serve as a valuable resource for both university and high school students interested in biology.
Typology: Exams
1 / 3
Characteristics of life - Correct Answer-all living things are organized, acquire materials and energy, reproduce, respond to stimuli, are homeostatic, grow and develop and can adapt Classification - Correct Answer-domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species Taxonomic groups - Correct Answer-genus name, species name with the genus capitalized and both words in italics Rain forests and coral reefs - Correct Answer-2 most diverse Biodiversity - Correct Answer-encompasses the total number of species, variability in their genes, and the ecosystems in which they live Scientific steps in order - Correct Answer-observation, hypothesis, experiment, conclusion and theory Matter - Correct Answer-anything that takes up space and has mass Element - Correct Answer-substance that can't be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means Elements that make up all organisms - Correct Answer-Carbon Hydrogen Nitrogen Oxygen Phosphorus Sulfer Proporties of water - Correct Answer-high heat capacity its a solvent high surface tension high heat of vaporization cohesive and adhesive Hydrophilic Molecules - Correct Answer-attract water Hydrophobic Molecules - Correct Answer-do not attract water
Acidic - Correct Answer-pH below 7 (acidic) Alkaline - Correct Answer-pH above 7 (basic) Neutral - Correct Answer-pH of 7 Carbohydrates - Correct Answer-function for quick fuel and short-term energy storage in organisms Lipids - Correct Answer-contain more energy per gram than any other biological molecule, diverse in structure and function, doesn't dissolve in water Proteins - Correct Answer-polymers composed of amino acid monomers, they perform many functions (i.e. speed up chemical reactions, anti bodies protect cells etc.) DNA - Correct Answer-stores genetic info in cell and organism, replicated to transmit its info when a cell divides or organism reproduces RNA - Correct Answer-single stranded and is formed by a complimentary base pairing with one DNA strand, can be used to carry info from DNA strand to ribosome ATP - Correct Answer-energy carrier in cells 3 types of cells - Correct Answer-prokaryotic, eukaryotic, archaean Cell Size - Correct Answer-atom > amino acid > protein > virus > chloroplast > bacteria
plant and animal cell > human egg > frog egg >ant Prokaryotic Cell - Correct Answer-lacks a membrane bounded nucleus, generally unicellular, structurally simple, has a plasma membrane & cytoplasm, bacteria Eukaryotic Cell - Correct Answer-structurally complex, has a nucleus, makes up animals plants and protists Nucleus - Correct Answer-prominent structure housing DNA Ribosomes - Correct Answer-site of protein synthesis Endomembrane System - Correct Answer-acts as the transportation and product- processing section of the cell, consists of the nuclear envelope, the endoplamic reticulum, golgi apparatus and vesicles Golgi Apparatus - Correct Answer-shipping center of the cell, collects, sorts, packages and distributes materials such as proteins and lipids
Lysosomes - Correct Answer-garbage disposal of the cell, bring macromolecules into the cell Vacuoles - Correct Answer-store substances Photosynthesis - Correct Answer-solar energy is the ultimate source of energy for most cells, plants and algae Cellular Respiration - Correct Answer-all organisms convert chemical energy to ATP, uses carbs and oxygen to give off CO2, H2O & energy Endosymbiotic Theory - Correct Answer-mitochondria and chloroplasts derived from prokaryotes that were taken up by a larger cell Plasma Membrane - Correct Answer-separates the internal environment of the cell from its external environment, regulates the entrance and exit of molecules into and out of the cell Isotonic - Correct Answer-the solute concentration is equal inside and outside of a cell Hypotonic - Correct Answer-a solution has a lower solute concentration than the inside of a cell Hypertonic - Correct Answer-a solution has higher solute concentration than the inside of a cell Diffusion - Correct Answer-movement of molecules from an area of higher to lower concentration Osmosis - Correct Answer-diffusion of water across a differentially permeable membrane Facilitated Transport - Correct Answer-doesn't require ATP, molecules follow the concentration gradient Exocytosis - Correct Answer-macromolecules exit from the cell Endocytosis - Correct Answer-macromolecules enter into cell
