Test Review Sheet: Biology Final – 09 The Answer are under each question. 1. Know the steps of the scientific method and what is done are each step. Ask a question, research, form a hypothesis, conduct the experiment, collect and analyze the data, make a conclusion, repeat the experiment, communicate the results 2. Be able to identify the control (dependent variable) and experimental group (independent variable). Identify the independent and dependent variable in the scenario below. A sample of digestive juice was removed from the stomach of a pig. The juice was placed in a test tube along with some grains of wheat. A second test tube was set up containing an equal number of wheat grains, with distilled water rather than digestive juice. The test tubes were kept for 8 hours at 40 degrees Celsius. After 8 hours, the seeds inside the digestive juice had broken into tiny particles. The grains of wheat, in the water, were wet but otherwise unchanged. Control group – wheat grains, temperature, time Variable group – digestive juice 3. What is the difference between a hypothesis and a theory? Hypothesis – educated guess to problem Theory – best explanation; withstood the test of many hypotheses 4. What is homeostasis? Maintaining stable internal conditions such as temp., metabolism, etc. 5. What are the characteristics of the cell membrane. (function, location, etc.)? Selectively permeable, surrounds the cell, protection, 6. What are the three parts of the cell theory? All living things are made of cells Cells are the basic unit of structure and function Cells come from preexisting cells 7. What are the building blocks of carbs, proteins, and nucleic acids? Monosaccharides, amino acids, and nucleotides 8. What makes carbon such a special element? It is stable, can form 4 strong, covalent bonds with itself and other elements, major component of all molecules 9. What is an organism? An individual living thing 10. What are the differences between plant and animal cells? Plants- large vacuole, starch as food storage, larger size, regular shape, cell wall Animals – small vacuole, glycogen as food storage, small size, irregular shape, no cell wall 11. What is changed during a controlled experiment? Variable 12. What are the three laws of Gregor Mendel? Law of dominance, law of segregation, law of independent assortment 13. What are dominant and recessive alleles? Dominant- allele that is always expressed Recessive – allele that only shows up if it is combined with another recessive allele 14. What are genotype and phenotype? Geno- genetic makeup of an organism Phenol- physical appearance of an organism 15. What are stem cells? Cells that have the ability to change into any type of cell 16. What is the goal of stem cell research? To cure diseases, to repair tissue that can’t repair itself 17. What is the purpose of mitosis? Replace damaged or worn out tissues 18. What is the end result of mitosis? Know the stages? Two genetically identical daughter cells 19. What is meiosis? Process when sex cells are produced 20. Be able to complete a two trait cross using a punnet square? 21. Where does cell respiration take place in the cell? What is the end result of cell respiration? Mitochondria 36 ATPs 22. What is the equation for cell respiration? glucose + oxygen ---------> carbon dioxide + water + 36 ATP 23. What is cancer? Disease of uncontrolled cell growth 24. Be able to complete a one trait cross using a punnet square. 25. What occurred during the osmosis experiment (egg and vinegar) and the diffusion experiment (bag and corn starch) and why? The egg got bigger and increased in mass because there was a higher concentration outside the egg than inside. The inside of the bag turned a dark purple color because the iodine on the outside of the bad had a higher concentration than inside the bag. Remember, during osmosis and diffusion, particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. 26. What are the base pairs of DNA? A with T and C with G 27. What are the steps of DNA replication? Helicase enzyme breaks the H-bonds, DNA polymerase adds complementary bases, process continues until DNA is copied, enzymes proofread and correct the mistakes 28. What is the complementary DNA sequence of A-T-C-C-G-A-G-T? T-A-G-G-C-T-C-A 29. What are the steps of protein synthesis? RNA polymerase unzips breaks the H-bonds of DNA and adds complementary RNA bases mRNA is made and leaves the nucleus to go to the ribosomes tRNA reads the codon of mRNA and brings the correct amino acid to the ribosome the amino acids are bonded together protein molecule is formed 30. What does transcription take place in the cell? nucleus 31. What is true of sex-linked disorders regarding transmission from parents to kids and why? If a mother has a sex-linked disorder, all of her sons will have the disease and all of her daughters will be carriers. If a father has a sex-linked disorder, all of his daughters will be carriers and all of his sons will be unaffected. The reason for this is because girls inherit two X chromosomes and boys only inherit one X and one Y chromosome. 32. What two people discovered the structure of DNA? Watson and Crick 33.
