Midterm Study GuideBioSci
The Basics (Chapter 1)Biology1. Biology is the study of _______Living organisms___________________________.
Metric System2. Fill in the chart to identify the basic units in the metric system
To measure… Use…Length Meters
Volume Liters
Mass Grams
Scientific Method3. Complete each step of the Scientific Method below:
a) State __the question_____or make an ____observation_______________
b) Gather__background information___________________________
c) Form _____Hypothesis_____________________________________
d) Test _______Hypothesis_______________________________
e) Collect and analyze ____Data______________________________
f) Draw ______Conclusion______________________________
*Retest the hypothesis*
4. What is a hypothesis? A possible, testable, explanation 5. When is a conclusion made? At the end of your experiment
6. Why do scientists use controlled experiments? So they have something to compare it to
**ONE Variable at a time!!!**
Homer notices that his shower is covered in a strange green slime. His friend Barney tells him that coconut juice will get rid of the green slime. Homer decides to check this this out by spraying half of the shower with coconut juice. He sprays the other half of the shower with water. After 3 days of "treatment" there is no change in the appearance of the green slime on either side of the shower.
7. Based on the experiment above, identify:
*Manipulated variable or independent variable -_____Coconut Juice___________________
*Responding variable or dependent variable-______Appearance of Slime____________
*Controlled variables – _________Side sprayed with water____________________________
*Hypothesis-(if, then statement) ___If the shower is sprayed with coconut juice, then it will get rid of the slime_______
8. There are two types of data to collect: quantitative and qualitative (numbers/amounts) (descriptions)
Use the graph to the right to answer the next three questions.
9. The manipulated/independent variable: Month
10. The responding/dependent variable:Number of critters
11. What can you conclude based on this data?
There is an increase in critters in the spring months
The MicroscopeUse the word bank to label the parts of the microscope.

Chemistry! (Chapter 3)
34. What is an enzyme? Speeds up the reaction 35. How can you recognize an enzyme? Ends in “ase”
Acids and Bases
41. Bases contain Hydroxide OH- ions
42. Acids contain Hydrogen H + ions
ACID BASE H+ > OH- Neutral H+ < OH-
pH _0___ to pH_6.9____ pH __7____ pH _7.1____ to pH _14_____
43. What does a buffer do?Balances out the pH.Organic vs. Inorganic (molecules, not food)
44. Organic molecules/substances contain the element __Carbon___ (SUPER IMPORTANT!)45. One exception: CO 2
46. Organic compounds can form Polymers (like how letters get organized into words)
47. The six most abundant elements found in all living organisms
Carbon Hydrogen Nitrogen Oxygen Phosphorous Sulfur
48. Fill in the table below with descriptions and examples of the four organic biological compounds of life:
Compound Description/Job Examples
CarbohydratesContain C, H, and O; end in –ose; necessary for energy; can be used for structure
Breads, Grains, Starch, Fruit, Sugar
LipidsWaxy, oily; store energy, protect
organs, help nervous systemButter, Milk, Oil
Proteins
For structure, storage, transport, enzymes, defense; made of amino acids Muscle, Enzymes, Hair, Steak
Nucleic AcidsUsed to transmit genetic information DNA, RNA
49. What are some differences between saturated and unsaturated fats?Saturated fats come from animals, have SINGLE bonds, are solid at room temperature, and are considered “bad
fats.” Unsaturated fats are oils, have DOUBLE bonds, generally liquid at room temperature, and are considered
“good fats.”
50. Make bigger organic molecules through _Dehydration Synthesis _____
--removing _Water______ to join molecules together
51. Make smaller organic molecules through __Hydrolysis ________
--adding _Water______________ to break molecules apart
Cells (Chapter 5)
52. Be able to identify and label the organelles and structures in a plant cell
53. Which organelles are only foundin plant cells?
_Chloroplasts, Cell wall, large vacuole_
54. Know the function of the following organelles:
o Cell Membrane Protects and supports cells
Semi-permeable--regulates the flow of substances in/out of cell
Made up of a phospholipid _bilayer (hydrophobic tail and hydrophilic Head )
Proteins and Carbohydrates also play a role
o Cell Wall Provides structure and protection____ for a PLANT cell
Made up of Cellulose________
Surrounds cell membrane
o Nucleus Information center of the cell
Contains genetic information (DNA)___
Nucleolus--only function is to make _Ribosomes_________
o Cytoplasm Jelly like substance that contains the organelles
o Mitochondria Provides _Energy________ for cells
o Chloroplast Traps sunlight to make energy (Food) for plants___
Found in __Plants____ ONLY
o Ribosome Make _Proteins______________
o Endoplasmic Reticulum Rough--synthesize proteins Smooth--detoxify cells and makes ________________
o Golgi Apparatus Collect, modify, package and distribute Proteins_________
o Lysosomes Break down things in cell (food, invaders, old organelles)
Movement Through the Cell Membrane (selectively permeable)
55. Types of Passive transport – does not require energya) __Diffusion_______________
b) __Osmosis_______________
c) ___Facilitated Diffusion
56. Types of Active transport – requires energy
a) ___Membrane pumps_
b) __Endocytosis_______
c) __Exocytosis____________________
Know the difference between:
57. Hypertonic: ______Moving out of the cell________
58. Hypotonic: ____Moving into the cell _______
59. Isotonic: ____Equal amount _________
60. Diffusion: molecules move from an area of _High____ concentration to an area of _Low___ concentration
*NO ENERGY REQUIRED
61. Osmosis: movement of _water____ molecules through a selectively permeable membrane--water moves from an area of High water concentration (low solute
concentration) to an area of Low water concentration (high solute concentration)
*NO ENERGY REQUIRED
62. Facilitated Diffusion: use of a helper protein to move _Large_______ molecules across the membrane
