BIOLOGY 1010 EXAM 1 QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 2026 VERIFIED.
Biological Diversity - ANS Diverse species throughout the world. There are 1 million species
on the planet. These species are catagorized by broad to detailed.
Domains - ANS a taxonomic category above the kingdom level; the three domains of life are
Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya
3 Domain Names - ANS 1. Domain Bacteria 2. Domain Archaea 3. Domain Eukarya
Every living thing (that we know of) belongs to one of these categories.
Domain Bacteria - ANS (simple) Prokaryotes. most abundant life form.
prokaryote - ANS dont have any organelles (means that w/n organism theres no smaller
compartments) see this image under microscope.
Domain Archaea - ANS also prokaryotes (but not bacteria). unlike bacteria b/c live in
unbarable conditions like hot springs & volcanoes.
Domain Eukarya - ANS eukaryotes. Includes protist(a), plants, fungi, and animals.
eukaryotes - ANS organisms made up of one or more cells that have a nucleus and
membrane-bound organelles. Under a microsocpe you can see many of these compartments.
, These compartments provide services for the cell. These can turn into complex organisms. looks
like this under microscope.
protist(a) - ANS usually single celled things.
plantae - ANS photosynthesise
fungi - ANS range from mushrooms to athletes foot to STDs. Classified by their type of
reproduction.
animalia - ANS usually critters bigger than 1 cell. [ex] cats, dogs, humans. they are
multicellular (as opposed to a protist)
a cell - ANS smallest unit of living matter. seperated from external environment by
membrane(s). all living things are composed of these.
evolution - ANS Species change over time by a means of natural selection. species have to
change in order to survive in their environment.
Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution - ANS pulished theory in 1850's. He called it DESCENT
W/ MODIFICATION (things change throughout generations). Organisms adapt to their
environment. Each organisms have challenges that cause them to modify their conditions.
natural selection - ANS species either live long enough to pass on their genes, or dont.
Biology as a Real Science refers to... - ANS using the scientific method to help solve whats
causing curiosity.
5 steps of scientific method - ANS 1. make observation 2. questions (about your observation)
3. make up a hypothesis (educated guess) 4. make prediction 5. test/expirament (to see if your
prediction or hypothesis will work, if fails, have to make a new prediction or hypothesis).
