Reproduction
Evolution
How do you define something as living? - ✔✔Have order
Regulate themselves (homeostasis)
Grow & develop
Use energy
Respond to environment
Reproduce
,Evolve
What is the scientific method? Know the components of it. - ✔✔Observe and generalize
Formulate a hypothesis
Make a testable prediction
Experiment or observe
Modify hypothesis as necessary and repeat steps 3 & 4
What is a hypothesis? - ✔✔A tentative answer to a question
What are the components of a good hypothesis? - ✔✔Answer to a question
"If" "then" statement
Be able to identify the difference between a hypothesis, prediction, observation, and control. -
✔✔Hypothesis
Its a proposed explanation in the beginning of the scientific method. Its purpose is to investigate to see if
the hypothesis is proven
Prediction
What you think will happen in the experiment
Observation
What you observe when you conduct the experiment
Control
The things in the experiment that are controlled
What is a theory in science? - ✔✔Science cannot be 100% positive about something being true
, There is no way for science to run a million tests and take into account all living things on the earth
What is an atom? - ✔✔the smallest unit of matter that retains properties of an element
What is an atom composed of? - ✔✔Protons
Neutrons
Electrons
What are the characteristics of neutrons, protons, and electrons? - ✔✔Protons
Positively charged
Atomic mass = 1 dalton
Determine element
Neutrons
No charge
Atomic mass = 1 dalton
Determine isotope
Electrons
Negative charge
Atomic mass = negligible
Chemical reactions
What is an ion? - ✔✔Atoms or molecules that are electrically charged as a result of gaining or losing
electrons
What is the difference between an ion and isotope? - ✔✔Isotope - Different number of neutrons - same
number of protons and electrons
