  3. % of Test by Topic

  4. Molecular Biology • Structure & Function of • Carbohydrates • Proteins • Lipids • Nucleic acids • Relationship of DNA, proteins and amino acids in doing work in the cell • Enzyme function • Energy transfer • Photosynthesis vs. respiration • Active transport and homeostasis

  5. Evolution & Genetics • Structure of DNA vs. RNA • Transcription, translation, replication • Mutations in DNA lead to changes in phenotype • Meiosis • Punnett Square predictions • Dominance, co-dominance, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, sex-linked traits • DNA & technology • Identification, transgenic, ethics • Fossil support for evolution • Natural Selection • Disease Agents (bacteria, viruses) • Classification Systems of Organisms

  6. Ecosystems • Flow of energy and Cycling • Survival & Reproductive Success of Organisms in terms of behavior, structure, & reproduction • Interactions (predation, competition, parasitism, mutualism) • Ecosystems over time • Human activity & Impact • Natural Resource management

  7. Structure & Function of Living Organisms • Structure & Function of Organelles • Nucleus, plasma membrane, cell wall, mitochondria, vacuoles, chloroplasts, ribosomes • Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic • Cell Differentiation due to DNA code • Homeostasis in the cell • Cellular growth and reproduction (mitosis) • Unicellular adaptions for survival
