Biology 1 First Semester Exam Review

2. hypothesis

3. observations, questions, hypothesis, controlled experiment, analysis of results, conclusions

4. experiment

5. dependent, independent

6. theory

7. scientific theory

8. safety

10. protons, neutrons, electrons

11. atom

12. atoms

15. polar molecule

16. because water is polar and oil is nonpolar

17. because different parts of the molecule have slightly different charges

18. <7, >7, 7

19. carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids

21. as cell size increases, the surface area-to-volume ratio decreases

22. prokaryotes: no nucleus, no organelles (except ribosomes); eukaryotes: nucleus with nuclear membrane, organelles

23. DNA

24. organelle

26. sun

29. photosynthesis

30. nitrogenous base, ribose sugar, 3 phosphate groups

31. can be made in one place and “spent” in another

32. 6CO2 + 6H20  C6H12O6 + 6O2

33. C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H20

34. 12

35. reflects green light

36. oxygen

37. provides high energy electrons to store energy in organic molecules

38. cellular respiration

39. 2,2,2,36-38

40. circular

41. The basic double helix wraps tightly around histones like thread around a spool. Further coiling also takes place.

43. G1

44. interphase

47. prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

48. asexual reproduction

49. asexual

51. XY, XX

53. 46, 23

54. because males have 1 X and 1Y chromosome. If the X chromosome fertilizes the egg = girl, If the Y chromosome fertilizes the egg = boy

57. crossing over

58. heredity

59. Gregor Mendel

60. dominant

63. AA, aa, Aa

65. test cross

66. AA, Aa

67. caused harmless bacteria to be transformed into deadly bacteria

68. DNA was responsible for transformation

69. DNA is the molecule that stores genetic information in cells

70. nucleotides

71. nitrogenous base, sugar, phosphate group

73. see chart p. 217

74. A=T; C=G

75. builta model of double helix structure of DNA

77. helicases

78. to create maps showing where genes are located on human chromosomes

81. genetic engineering, human proteins

82. duplicate of 79

84. totipotent

85. Restriction

86. pair up and join with any other DNA fragments cut by the same restriction enzyme

88. Southern blot

89. DNA fingerprinting and friction ridges (fingerprints)
