Griffin Q2 Bio Exam
Terms in this set (188)
controlled experiment where only ONE variable is changed at a time, all others should be the
same
independent variable factor in a controlled experiment that is changed on purpose
Saturated fats from animal sources, contains only single carbon atoms; soild at room
temperature
asexual reproduction one parent and spilt genetically identical to the parent
sexual reproduction two cells from different parents unite
, Griffin Q2 Bio Exam
organic compounds carbon-based substances that are essential for life, forming the
backbone of biological molecules like DNA, proteins, and
carbohydrates.
hypothesis possible explanation for an observation or possible answer to a scientific
question
fatty acid monomers are composed of these
glucose a simple sugar which is an important energy source in living
organisms and is a component of many carbohydrates.
monosaccharide simple sugars: glucose, galactose (milk sugar), fructose (fruit sugar)
macromolecule large molecules formed by a process called polymerization, polymers
containing thousands of monomers
glycogen how animals store glucose
, Griffin Q2 Bio Exam
evolution the process of change in groups of organisms over a very long period of
time (does not happen overnight)
unicellular composed of one cell (microscopic)
multicellular composed of many cells (can see)
cell wall found in plants, algae, fungi, and most prokaryotes (not in animals)
Prokaryote lack a nucleus and membrane bond organelles
ex. bacteria and other unicellular organisms
Eukaryote have a nucleus and organelles
