What is a gene? JEOPARDY!! Mutations will be passed on the offspring only if they occur in the ______________. What are the gametes (sex cells)? JEOPARDY!! Taking DNA of one organism’s egg and growing an organism identical to the “DNA donor” What is cloning? JEOPARDY!! These changes in DNA are caused by radiation and harmful chemicals, to name a few. What are mutations? JEOPARDY!! The process of stem cells developing into specific cells with specific appearances and functions. What is differentiation JEOPARDY!! Organisms that make up the largest portion of the energy pyramid and are referred to as autotrophs because they produce their own food from solar energy. What are producers? JEOPARDY!! The amount of energy available decreases as you move from producer to consumers in this. What is the food chain (or pyramid) JEOPARDY!! A high level of this in an ecosystem will allow for more stability if a natural disaster should occur. What is biodiversity? JEOPARDY!! The gradual replacement of one ecological community by another until reaching a point of stability. What is ecological succession? JEOPARDY!! These important members of an ecosystem recycle nutrients from dead organisms, but do NOT recycle energy. What are decomposers? JEOPARDY!! This organelle is selectively permeable – it allows certain things to pass through. What is the cell membrane? JEOPARDY!! This organelle stores the genetic material for the cell. What is the nucleus? JEOPARDY!! This organelle reads mRNA and assembles amino acid chains. What is the ribosome? JEOPARDY!! These two organelles work together to bring in Oxygen and glucose, make ATP with them, and release CO2 from the cell. What are the cell membrane and the mitochondria? JEOPARDY!! This form of diffusion causes water to rush out of a cell if it is placed in a salt water solution that has a lower concentration of water in it than the cell itself. What is osmosis? JEOPARDY!! White blood cells seek out pathogens by recognizing these on foreign cells’ surfaces. What are antigens? JEOPARDY!! The white blood cells make these in response to a foreign invader. What are antibodies? JEOPARDY!! These two body systems are responsible for the coordination and control of all of the other systems. What are the nervous and endocrine systems? JEOPARDY!! The respiratory system and the digestive systems work together to deliver the raw materials needed by all cells to perform this energy-making process. What is cellular respiration? JEOPARDY!! This hormone is made in the pancreas and controls blood glucose levels. What is insulin? JEOPARDY!! The scientific name of the cells that contain half of the normal number of chromosomes. What are gametes? JEOPARDY!! This period during a pregnancy is a particularly vulerable time for the embryo due to the formation of the vital organs. What is the first trimester? JEOPARDY!! Drinking, smoking, drugs, and poor diet during pregnancy can cause these in babies. What are birth defects? JEOPARDY!! The name of the process that forms cells with half of the normal amount of chromosomes. What is meiosis? JEOPARDY!!
