Observation What you see
Hypothesis educated guess or explanation based on observation
Controlled Experiment Keep everything the same except the one thing you are testing Use a control group for comparison
Variables • Independent – • The one you change (often time) • Dependent – • The one you measure
Information Sources • Scientific Journals (Magazines) • For research • Field Guides • For identifying organisms
Water • Polar Molecule – • Has positive charge on ears & negative charge on “chin”
Water • Cohesion – • Sticks to itself (surface tension) • Adhesion – • Easily sticks to other molecules (sides of a glass)
Carbohydrates • Sugars • Provide energy
Lipids • Fats • Store Energy
Proteins • Made of Amino Acids • Functions • Structural • Enzymes – • Proteins that speed up chemical reactions • Their job is determined by their shape • Like a key in a lock
Cell Theory • All living things are made up of cells • Cells are the basic unit of life • New cells come from other cells
Types of Cells • Prokaryotes – No nucleus • Eukaryotes – Have a nucleus
Organelles in Prokaryotes • Cell Membrane – • Controls what enters & leaves cell • Cell Wall – • Rigid for support • Ribosome – • Makes proteins (site of protein synthesis)
Organelles in Eukaryotes (Animals) • Nucleus – • Control center; where DNA is found • Cell Membrane – • Controls what enters & leaves cell • Ribosomes – • Make proteins (site of protein synthesis) • Endoplasmic Reticulum – • Highway system/transportation network • Rough ER has ribosomes; Smooth ER does not
Golgi Apparatus – • Packaging center to get things ready to leave cell • Vacuole – • Storage area • Mitochondria – • Power plant of energy • Site of Cellular Respiration
Organelles in Eukaryotes (Plants) All of those in animals plus the following • Chloroplasts – • Site of photosynthesis • Cell wall – • Rigid for support **Plants have one large vacuole instead of several smaller vacuoles
Movement of Substances Diffusion – Movement of material from high to low concentration Osmosis – Movement of water from high to low concentration across a membrane Active Transport – Requires cell to expend energy
Hypertonic Solution – • Has more salt than inside cell • Results in water moving OUT of cell; cell shrivels • Hypotonic Solution – • Has less salt than inside cell • Results in water moving INTO cell; cell swells/bursts • Isotonic Solution – • Salt inside cell equals outside • No net movement of water
Photosynthesis Equation: chlorophyll 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light -----------> C6H12O6 + 6 O2 Where it happens: Chloroplasts Type of Organisms: Autotrophs What Happens: Converts light energy to chemical energy Glucose produced from light energy
Cellular Respiration Equation: enzymes C6H12O6 + 6 O2 -----------> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ATP Where it happens: Mitochondria Type of Organisms: Autotrophs and Heterotrophs What Happens: Releases energy in form of ATP from glucose
Diploid • Cell with 2 of each chromosome • One from mom, one from dad • Body Cells – Somates • Haploid • Cell with 1 of each chromosome • Sex (Germ) Cells - Gametes
Mitosis • Interphase – DNA doubles (replicates) • Prophase – Centrioles move to poles; spindle forms • Metaphase – Chromosomes line up in middle of cell • Anaphase – Chromosomes pull apart and move toward poles • Cytokinesis (cytoplasmic division) begins • Telophase – Chromosomes at opposite ends; new membrane forms around them
Meiosis • Division of cells that results in 4 gametes (egg/sperm) • Cells have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell • Has 2 stages • Meiosis I • Meiosis II
Mendel - Father of Genetics • Did experiments with pea plants
Allele – Different forms of a trait • The information you get from a parent • Genotype – genetic make-up of an organism • Heterozygous – both alleles or inherited genes are DIFFERENT (Rr) • Homozygous – both alleles or inherited genes are the SAME (RR or rr)
Phenotype – physical appearance of an organism • Dominants overshadow recessives • If R = Red and r = White, a Rr organism will usually be Red as will be RR; rr will be white. • Exception – INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE • When the heterozygous individual has a phenotype in between the 2 parents; • red + white = pink • Exception – CODOMINANCE • When the heterozygous individual has a phenotype that is a mix of both parents; • red + white = red and white
Punnett Squares - Steps • Identify the genotype of the parents • Draw the empty square • Put the parents on the top and left of the square • Fill in the offspring
