What is biology? - ✔✔The study of life
What are the 3 domains? - ✔✔Eukarya, Bacteria, Archae
What are the 4 kingdoms in eukarya? - ✔✔Kingdom Amimalia, Kingdom Plantae, Kingdom Fungi,
Kingdom Protista
What are the 7 properties of life? - ✔✔they have order, they regulate themselves, they grow and
develop, they use energy, they respond to the environment, they reproduce, population evolve
What defines living? - ✔✔It has cells
What are the common themes of biology? - ✔✔pervade all of biology, will make sense to you in the
future
What is the scientific method? - ✔✔Make an observation, Ask a question, Make a hypothesis, Draw a
conclusion, Conduct a experiment, Report results
When did the scientific method started? - ✔✔Started with the outbreak of cholera London 1854
What is a hypothesis? - ✔✔A tentative explanation for an observation
What are the components of a good hypothesis? - ✔✔Repeated trials, good track of data
What is the difference between a hypothesis and a prediction? - ✔✔A prediction is a guess what might
happen based on observation.
, A hypothesis is a possible explanation for a observation or problem that can further be tested by
experimentation. (more general)
What is observation? - ✔✔The recording of data
What is control? - ✔✔Constant and unchanging
What is a theory? - ✔✔A much broader in scope than a hypothesis, can be changed but unlikely
What are the limits of science? - ✔✔It is not the only way to understand nature and cannot address
every question posed by man
What is an atom? - ✔✔It is the smallest unit of an element that has all its properties
What is a proton, neutron, and electron? - ✔✔A proton is a positive charged atom, a neutron is a no
charged atom, and a electron is a negative charged atom
What is an atom composed of? - ✔✔protons, neutrons, and electrons
What is 1 proton and neutron equal to? and electron? - ✔✔1 proton and neutron can equal to 1 dalton.
An electron is negligible
What is an ion? - ✔✔An atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss of gain or looses its
amount of electron
What is the difference between an ion and isotope? - ✔✔An atom is an ion when it gains or losses
electrons
An atom is an isotope when it has the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons
