Chapter 2: The Chemistry
of Life
Chemical Reactions – rearranging of atoms
to form new compounds
Catalyst – speeds up the rate of chemical
reactions
Enzymes – naturally occurring, biological
catalysts
Can only be used to speed up ONE specific
reaction!!!
Chapter 15: Darwin’s
Theory of Evolution
Evolution by Natural Selection – species
change over time
1. Struggle for Existence
2. Survival of the Fittest
3. Natural Selection
Evidence of Common Ancestry:
Structural similarities (body parts), similar
genes, similar species in geographically
isolated areas
Chapter 15: Darwin’s
Theory of Evolution
Punctuated Equilibrium – species
experience long, stable periods interrupted
by brief periods of rapid evolutionary
change
Quarter #2
Chapter 17: The History of
Life
Fossil Record – collection of fossils over
time that illustrates ancestry commonalities
between species
Early Earth conditions were not hospitable
to life:
Bacteria – likely the FIRST life forms on
Earth
Chapter 7: Cell Structure &
Function
In multicellular organisms, cells specialize
to perform different functions.
Cell Theory:
1. All living things are made of cells.
2. Cells are the basic unit of life.
3. All cells are produced by existing cells.
Chapter 7: Cell Structure &
Function
Prokaryotic Cells – lack “true” nucleus and
membrane-bound organelles (bacteria)
Eukaryotic Cells – contain a membrane-bound
nucleus as well as specialized organelles
Plant Cell – square-ish; cell wall, large central
vacuole, chloroplasts & general organelles
Animal Cell – round-ish; lysosomes, centrioles &
general organelles
Chapter 7: Cell Structure &
Function
Fluid Mosaic Model of the Cell Membrane:
Phospholipids – main component
Proteins channels and pumps – made from proteins; aid
materials in movement across cell membrane
Carbohydrates – identify and signal to cells
Cell Transport:
Osmosis – movement of water from an area of high
concentration to an area of low concentration
Diffusion – movement from an area of high concentration to
an area of low concentration
Active Transport – movement from LOW to HIGH
concentration
Chapter 8: Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O + Sunlight C6H12O6 + 6O2
Occurs in the Chloroplast
Thylakoid: membrane sacs; Chlorophyll (pigment)
found in membranes (reflects green light)
Light-Dependent Reactions – produce energy
Stroma: fluid surrounding thylakoid
Calvin Cycle (Light-Independent Reactions) –
produce high-energy sugars
Chapter 9: Cellular
Respiration
6O2 + C6H12O6 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP
Glycolysis – occurs in cytoplasm, net gain 2
ATP, anaerobic (no O2 needed), if O2 is present
followed by Kreb’s Cycle
Kreb’s Cycle - occurs in matrix (inner cavity of
mitochondria), aerobic (O2 needed), net gain 0
ATP
Electron Transport Chain – occurs in cristae
(mitochondria), aerobic (O2 needed), net gain
34 ATP
Chapter 9: Cellular
Respiration
Fermentation
Alcoholic Fermentation
Lactic Acid Fermentation – causes muscle soreness
during excessive physical activity
Sources of Energy:
Stored ATP (energy is released as bonds are
broken and phosphate groups are removed from
ATP)
Cellular Respiration
Lactic Acid Fermentation
Quarter #3
Chapter 10: Cell Growth &
Division
As a cell grows larger, its volume increases
faster than its surface area – it MUST divide in
order to avoid bursting!
Interphase – stage of the Cell Cycle that occupies
MOST of a cell’s life
G1 – Growth occurs, cell performs normal
function
S – DNA is copied in preparation for mitosis
G2 – organelles are copied in preparation for
mitosis
Chapter 10: Cell Growth &
Division
Mitosis
Prophase – nuclear envelope breaks down,
chromatin condenses into chromosomes
Metaphase – chromosomes line up along middle
of the cell
Anaphase – sister chromatids are pulled apart
Telophase – formation of two new nuclei
Cytokinesis –formal splitting of cell into two
new daughter cells
Chapter 10: Cell Growth &
Division
Chromosomes – tightly wound chromatin forms
chromatids which are held together by a
centromere
Normal cells become cancer when:
Regulation of cell division is lost
Cells do not respond normally to control
mechanisms
Cells continue to divide without passing through
stage G1 of Interphase
Chapter 11: Introduction to
Genetics
Genetics – scientific study of heredity
Genotype – genetic makeup of individual
(alleles)
Phenotype – physical expression of genotype
Punnett Square – used to predict possible
genotypes and phenotypes of offspring
Test Cross – used to determine the genotype of
an unknown person with the dominant
phenotype
Chapter 11: Introduction to
Genetics
Types of Inheritance
Dominant/Recessive – one allele is dominant
over the other, recessive, allele
Incomplete Dominance – neither allele is
dominant; a heterozygous individual has a mixed
phenotype in between the two alleles
Codominance – both alleles are dominant (Blood
Type AB); you “see” BOTH phenotypes
Sex-Linked – trait located on the X chromosomes
(colorblindness, hemophilia)
Chapter 11: Introduction to
Genetics
Dihybrid Cross – 9:3:3:1 Phenotypic Ratio
Meiosis - reductive cell division that results in
the production of haploid, gamete (germ/sex)
cells
Interphase
Meiosis I – Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I,
Telophase I
Crossing Over – (Metaphase I); chromosomes
exchange corresponding segments of DNA
Meiosis II – Prophase II, Metaphase II, Anaphase
II, Telophase II
Chapter 14: The Human
Genome
Humans – 46 chromosomes
XX – Female
XY – Male
Males determine the sex of offspring
because women can only pass down an X
chromosome, but men can pass down
either and X or a Y
Quarter #4
Chapter 12: DNA & RNA
Nucleic Acid (DNA/RNA) – made up of
monomers called nucleotides
DNA – deoxyribonucleic acid; double
helix, made of deoxyribose + phosphate
group + adenine/thymine/guanine/cytosine
RNA – ribonucleic acid; single strand,
made up of ribose + phosphate group +
adenine/uracil/guanine/cytosine
Chapter 12: DNA & RNA
Chargraff’s Rule – the % of [A] = [T] and [G] = [C]
DNA Replication – makes 2 IDENTICAL strands
(each ½ new DNA and ½ old DNA); DNA
Helicase unzips the strands; DNA Polymerase
adds new nucleotides and proofreads the
daughter strand
DNA Transcription – makes mRNA strand that
carries information for one gene; begins at region
called a promotor
Chapter 12: DNA & RNA
Translation – produces polypeptide chain
(amino acids); occurs in ribosome; codons (3
base groupings) are “read” and tRNA transfers
and attaches the appropriate amino acids to the
chain
Point Mutations – involves one (or a few
neighboring) nucleotides
lac operon – controls the breakdown of lactose
Chapter 13: Genetic
Engineering
Gene Technology – using science to alter or
replace genes present in living organisms
Gel Electrophoresis – used to separate DNA
fragments by size
Genetic Engineering – reading, editing, and
reinserting DNA sequences into living things
Cloning – the joining of an egg cell with a
somatic (body) cell to create a genetic clone of an
organism
Chapter 18: Classification
All organisms in Domains Bacteria and Archaea are
prokaryotes.
All organisms in Kingdoms Protista, Fungi, Plantae,
and Animalia are eukaryotes.
Cladogram – analysis of derived (inherited)
characteristics used to show common ancestry
Binomial Nomenclature – two word naming system
derived from the genus and species of an organism

Chapter 3: The Biosphere
Ecology – the branch of Biology dealing with the
interactions among organisms and between
organisms and their environment
Sun = source of almost ALL energy in the
ecosystem*
Energy is transferred in the following way:
Sun Producers Primary Consumers
Secondary Consumers Tertiary Consumers
Decomposers (which break down dead matter)
*Chemosynthetic Bacteria make their own food using chemicals
available and DO NOT get their energy from the sun!
Chapter 4: Ecosystems and
Communities
Climate – the average year-to-year conditions of
temperature and precipitation in a particular
region
Ecosystems are shaped by:
Biotic Factors – living things (plants, animals,
insects, bacteria, etc.), and;
Abiotic Factors – non-living things (temperature,
wind, precipitation, available nutrients)
Chapter 4: Ecosystems and
Communities
Food Web – illustration of the feeding
relationships within an ecosystem
Sunlight – energy source
Producers – photosynthetic; obtain energy directly from
sun (plants, algae)
Primary Consumers – herbivores; obtain energy by
eating producers (squirrels, rabbits)
Secondary Consumers – carnivores; obtain energy by
eating primary consumers (large birds)
Tertiary Consumers – omnivores; “top” of web
** Energy is lost at each trophic level in the form
of heat
Chapter 4: Ecosystems and
Communities
Ecological Succession – series of predictable
changes that occurs in a community over time
Community Interactions:
Competition – organisms attempt to use the same
resources in the same places at the same time
Symbiosis – two organisms live closely together ( can be
beneficial to one or both organisms)
Predation – one organism captures and feeds off of
another organism
Chapter 6: Humans in the
Biosphere
Human Activity has become the #1 MOST
important source of environmental change on
Earth.
Habitat Destruction is the #1 GREATEST threat
to biological diversity.
Sustainable Development – using renewable
resources while ensuring they are not depleted
Integrated Pest Management – using nonchemical means of preventing and managing
insects and pests
