_____ refers to the process by which populations change over time.
Match the term with the definition
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
Adaptation | arrow_right_alt | humans select plants or animals for breeding based on desired traits |
Variations | arrow_right_alt | organisms inherit advantageous traits for better chances of survival |
Natural Selection | arrow_right_alt | an inherited trait that helps an organism survive |
Artificial Selection | arrow_right_alt | natural differences in traits in a population |
Define what a physical trait is and what an adaptation is (how are they similar and different). Use the wolf as an example.
What are the three domains of the classification system?
Eukarya is made up of prokaryotic species with cell walls.
The kingdom ______ gets energy by absorbing materials, often from dead organisms.
This kingdom contains multicellular organisms that lack cell walls and chloroplasts. They get nutrients by consuming/eating other organisms.
This kingdom is full of species that are either unicellular or multicellular and can reproduce sexually or asexually.
Use the dichotmous key to identify what type of dragon that is.
Which one is not one of the three basic characteristics of cells and organisms? (aka the cell theory)
All cells have a cell membrane.
All cells have a flagella to move.
All cells have cytoplasm.
All cells have organelles.
All cells have mitochondria to make energy.
All cells have DNA or genetic material.
Match the organelle (cell part) to its function. Read the statements CAREFULLY. Please please read them carefully. Read them twice, three times, just read them...and read them carefully!
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
Nucleus | arrow_right_alt | this is where cellular respiration occurs, which releases energy to be later be used |
Chloroplast | arrow_right_alt | this is where the cell stores its genetic material, the DNA |
Ribosomes | arrow_right_alt | this is where photosynthesis takes place |
Mitochondria | arrow_right_alt | this is where osmosis, diffusion, and active or passive transportation takes place |
Lysosomes | arrow_right_alt | these make proteins, which y'all now know we need |
Cell Membrane | arrow_right_alt | helps break down waste, damaged cell parts, and invaders to be later removed from the cell |
What is diffusion?
Active transport differs from diffusion because it:
What is the main purpose of photosynthesis in plants?

What is the best definition of heredity?
If a cell’s mitochondria were damaged, what would likely happen to the cell? Why?
Why is the cell membrane compared to a gatekeeper? What does it control?
This question is a wonderful opportunity to go above and beyond and show the depth of your knowledge.
What would happen if cells divided without copying their DNA first?
