Chapter Four DEFINITIONS nucleic acid – polymers specialized for the storage‚ transmission between generations‚ and use of genetic information. There are two types‚ DNA and RNA nucleotides – monomers that compose nucleic acid‚ consist of a pentose sugar‚ a phosphate group‚ and a nitrogen containing base. DNA - – a macromolecule that encodes hereditary information and passes if from generation to generation. RNA and the bonds that stabilize them Purine - one of two chemical forms

organic matter in nature. They belong to the kingdom fungi. Coprinus can grow alone or in clusters‚ lines‚ or fairy rings on lawns‚ wood chips‚ or hard-packed ground. The common fungus is coprinus comatus. Euglena is a genus of unicellular protists‚ which belong to the class of Euglenoidea in the phylum of Euglenozoa. Over 1000 species have been identified. They are often found commonly residing in salt and fresh waters. They are asexual and reproduce through cell division. Euglenas typically

Skill: Knowledge/Comprehension 2) If all fungi in an environment that perform decomposition were to suddenly die‚ then which group of organisms should benefit most‚ due to the fact that their fungal competitors have been removed? A) plants B) protists C) prokaryotes D) animals E) mutualistic fungi Answer: C Topic: Concept 31.1 Skill: Application/Analysis 3) When a mycelium infiltrates an unexploited source of dead organic matter‚ what are most likely to appear within the food source

Biology exam Endocrine system: Hormones: chemical messengers that coordinate the body’s activates. Substances secreted by cells that act to regulate the activity of other cells in the body. They are part of the endocrine system and they are slow acting but have a longer affect than neurotransmitters. Functions: * regulate growth‚ development‚ behavior‚ and reproduction. * Maintain homeostasis * Regulate metabolism and water and mineral balance * Respond to external stimuli

from lima beans. Introduction The goal of the first part of this lab was to deterime the affects that different sugars and tempratures have on yeast fermentation. All organisms need to produce energy in order to survive. Amimal‚ Bacteria‚ Protists‚ Fungi‚ and Plant cells use Cellular Respiration to produce the energy they need. In the process of Cellular Respiration‚ an organism’s cell will transform molucles such as starch or glucose into a form of cellular energy known as Adenosine Triphosphate(ATP)

Ecology ➢ Climate is weather conditions of a region like temperature‚ humidity‚ precipitation‚ sunlight pressure‚ winds‚ throughout the year over a period of time ➢ Ecology – is the study of the interactions between organisms and the environment ➢ Abiotic factors –temperature and water ➢ Microclimate – a classification at the small scale variation ➢ Dispersal – movement away fro origin ➢ Macroclimate – a classification at the global and regional level
