LEVELS OF BIOLOGICAL ORGANIZATION
You should be able to rank these levels of organization by terms or pictures.
The CELL: Smallest unit of LIFE
You should be able to identify each of these regions
Living Things Acquire and Use
Materials and Energy
Fig. 1-
Understand the “circular” pathways of many processes
Categorizing Life
You should be able to identify these three “branches” of the tree of life here.
3 domains
The Scientific Method Is the Basis for Scientific
Inquiry
What are the 6 steps
of scientific
method?
Francesco Redi’s experiment
6 steps
Applying the steps to an experiment by Redi
Fleming’s Discovery of Penicillin Highlights Real
Science in the 1920s
What did Fleming discover? Why is it important? Examples today?
Types of Reasoning Used in Science

O
OXYGEN has 6
electrons in its
outermost shell
HYDROGENS each have 1 electron in their outermost shell
The single
electrons between
H and O form a
bond (sharing of 2
electrons)
You should understand hydrogen bonding and how/with what it forms
Free radicals
Some cellular reactions produce free radicals
A free radical is a molecule in which atoms have one or
more unpaired electrons in their outer shells
steal electrons, destroying other molecules
implicated in heart disease, Alzheimer’s, cancer, and
aging
radicals harmless
You should be able to tell me what a free radical is and where you would find one.

You should understand the gain/loss of electrons and WHICH electrons are used.
Ions and ionic bonds
Atoms that have lost or gained electrons are
charged, and are called ions
Atoms that have lost electrons become positively
charged ions (sodium: Na
); called “oxidation”
charged ions (chlorine: Cl
); called “reduction”
other are bound into a molecule by ionic bonds
arrangement of sodium and chloride ions
You should understand how IONIC BONDING works.
