Name: ___________________________________________ Period________ General Biology First Semester Study Guide The following chapters were covered in the first semester biology course: 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, and 13 Questions: 1. Turn to page A8-A9. Review those pages. 2. What is the difference between qualitative and quantitative data. Provide examples of each. 3. Describe the following parts of the scientific method: a. hypothesis: b. experiment: c. data: d. conclusion: 4. A student wanted to know if fertilizer would make her bean plants grow faster. She planted 2 rows of beans. The first row of beans was treated with fertilizer. The second row was not. After 2 weeks she measured the height of the beans. Identify the following parts of this experiment: Experimental Group: Control: Manipulated Variable (independent): Responding Variable (dependent): 5. Write an appropriate hypothesis for the experiment described above. 6. How many manipulated variables are in a controlled experiment? 7. Turn to page 30-31 of your textbook. Answer questions 30-32 on page 30 and answer questions 7-8 on page 31: 8. Explain where on a graph you would find the manipulated and responding variables. 9. How do you title a graph? 10. What is peer review and why is it important? 11. What is a theory? 12. What are the 3 basic units of measurement in the SI system AND what does each measure: 13. List the SI unit (with correct prefix) that would be appropriate for measuring each of the following: Height of a tree= Mass of a penny= Mass of a dog= Volume of a pea= 14. What is homeostasis? How do humans maintain homeostasis of body temperature? 15. What is metabolism? Give several examples of metabolism reactions. 16. Explain the difference in the behavior of electrons in ionic and covalent bonds. 17. What are the most common elements found in organic compounds? 18. What are organic compounds? List some examples of organic compounds. 19. What are hydrogen bonds? 20. List 3 important characteristics of carbon that make it versatile: 21. What is a monomer? 32.

Explain the relationship between the shape of the enzyme active site and the substrate. 39. What are some factors that could impact the function of an enzyme? 40. What is ATP? 41. Provide three examples of what ATP is used for in cells. 42. What three groups of atoms make up a molecule of ATP? 43. Explain how energy is stored and released by ATP. 44. Complete the chart below: Process: Reactants: Cellular respiration Photosynthesis Products: In what organelle? 45. What is the first step of photosynthesis? 46. What is another name for the light-independent reaction of photosynthesis? 47. In which part of the plant will you find the most chloroplasts? 48. What is the purpose of cellular respiration? 49.
