  1. Where does photosynthesis occur? The organelle and where specifically in the organelle?
  1. Where does cellular respiration occur?
  2. What do roots do?
  3. What do stems do?
  4. What does xylem do?
  5. What does phloem do?
  6. What do stomata do?
  7. Describe transpiration:
  1. What is the purpose of guard cells?
  1. What pigment is responsible for photosynthesis?
  1. What is the classification of organisms called?
  2. What is binomial nomenclature? How is it written?
  1. What is hierarchical classification?
  2. What is a vestigial structure? Give an example.
  3. What is geographic isolation? What is the result of geographic isolation?
  4. What is the equation or photosynthesis?
  1. What are the reactants of photosynthesis? What are the products?
  2. What monosaccharide is a product of photosynthesis?
  1. What energy is required in order for photosynthesis to occur?
  1. What organism uses light energy to make their own food?
  1. What is taxonomy?
  1. What is hierarchical classification?
  1. Describe each of the 6 kingdoms:

Kingdom / Protista / Fungi / Animalia / Plantae / Archaebacteria / Eubacteria
Energy
Cell type
  1. This is a type of cellular energy and it has 3 parts; adenine, ribose, and 3 phosphate groups.
  1. Photosynthesis converts one type of energy into another type of energy, what are they?

Fig 1.0

  1. What kind of structure is shown in figure 1.0? What type of evidence for evolution is this? What does this imply?
  2. What is a limiting factor? How could this relate to overpopulation?
  1. Summarize each of the four mechanisms of evolution (HOW evolution happened.):Natural Selection, Mutation ,Migration, Genetic Drift.

1.1

  1. What type of evolution is shown in figure 1.1? Describe the ways that this type of evolution could take place?
  1. Which mechanism of evolution is the alteration of a nucleotide sequence?
  1. Describe Gene Flow :
  1. What defines a species?
  1. What is stasis?
  1. Explain each of the 4 evidences for evolution: Fossil Record/Biogeography, comparative anatomy, molecular homologies, and developmental homologies.
  1. If a Donkey and a Horse are mated and they produce a Mule, is this considered a reproductive success? Why or why not?

  1. Name and describe each of the three types of natural selection occurring in graphs a, b, and c above.

1.2

  1. While analyzing the structures in figure 1.2 what conclusion do you come to?
