EOCT Biology Study Guide Domain I. Cells Differentiate between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells Comprehend the importance of homeostasis Identify characteristics of enzymes Identify characteristics of the 4 major organic molecules prokaryotes nucleus ribosomes diffusion endocytosis carbohydrate protein eukaryotes chloroplasts homeostasis osmosis exocytosis classes of carbohydrates nucleic acid plasma membrane Golgi bodies selective permeability facilitated diffusion lock and key mechanism lipids (and examples) nucleotide cell wall mitochondria passive transport active transport activation energy waxes (examples) amino acids Domain II. Organisms Understand the relationship between single-celled and multicellular organisms Classify organisms according to the six kingdoms Know energy is needed by all organisms to carry out processes Understand the binomial nomenclature system and its basis energy autotroph chlorophyll carbon fixation taxonomy Fungi ATP photosynthesis light reactions cellular respiration Eubacteria Plantae ADP thylakoids Calvin cycle classification Archaebacteria Animalia binomial nomenclature Protista 7 taxonomic categories Domain III. Genetics Understand how biological traits are passed from generation to generation Distinguish between DNA and RNA Explain the role of DNA in storing and transmitting cellular information Using Mendel’s laws, explain the role of meiosis in reproductive variation Describe the relationship between mutations and the appearance of new traits Compare advantages of sexual and asexual reproduction in different situations Examine the use of DNA technology in forensics, medicine and agriculture. genetics traits nucleic acid nucleotide 4 nitrogen bases double helix hydrogen bond replication ribose uracil mutation frameshift mutation mitosis prophase metaphase anaphase telophase cytokinesis asexual reproduction DNA technology transcription (mRNA = codon) trasnslation (tRNA = anticodon) DNA fingerprinting genes alleles dominant recessive gametes homozygous heterozygous hybrid Law of Dominance Law of Segregation Law of Independent Assortment haploid monohybrid dihybrid egg meiosis diploid egg sperm zygote gene mutation genetic recombination Domain IV. Ecology Investigate relationships among organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems and biomes. Explain the flow of matter and energy through ecosystems Relate environmental conditions to successional changes in ecosystems. Assess human activities that influence and modify the environment: global warming, population growth, pesticide use, water and power consumption. Relate plant adaptations, including tropisms, to the ability to survive stressful environmental conditions. Relate animal adaptations, including behaviors, to the ability to survive stressful environmental conditions. ecology ecologist biosphere biotic factors abiotic factors 5 levels of organization organisms populations communities ecosystems biome population density primary energy source autotroph (producer) heterotroph (consumer) decomposer trophic level food chain food web energy pyramids biogeochemical cycles (C, H2O, N, P) primary succession secondary succession climax community biodiversity habitat loss mass extinction Domain V. Evolution Understand the role of natural selection in the development of the theory of evolution Relate natural selection to changes in organisms Recognize the role of evolution to biological resistance Darwin adaptations population genetics natural selection convergent evolution fitness reproductive isolation natural selection adaptive radiation divergent evolution descent with modification speciation genetic variation extinction
