Final Review
HOW THE GAME WORKS
1.
Each side of the room is one team.
2.
Each student is assigned a number.
3.
Teacher chooses a number at random . The student whose
number is chosen will STAND UP and select the question.
4.
When the question is shown, teams get 45 seconds to
“huddle.” 100 points is taken off per team if not all team
members are huddling.
5.
When the bell rings, talking stops. 100 points is taken off
from the team that talks after the bell rings.
6.
If the correct answer is not given, the question goes to the
SPEAKER of the other team.
7.
5 minutes before end of the period, all remaining questions
are shown.
8.
The winning team gets Tootsie Rolls.
9.
You do not need to take notes. This game will be posted
online at the end of the school day.

QUESTION WORTH: $200
Describe qualitative and quantitative
observation. Give an example of each.
Qualitative: The apple is green.
Quantitative: There are 5 apples.
SS 1 - 4
QUESTION WORTH: $400
What is a manipulated variable? What is a
responding variable? Give an example of
each.
Manipulated Variable: The variable that the experimenter changes. Ex.
Color of light. Responding Variable: The variable that is being
measured. Ex. Growth of plants.

Living things are made of cells .
Living things respond to their environment

Living things maintain homeostasis
SS 1 - 4
QUESTION WORTH: $800
What does this statement mean: “All cells
are similar but not exactly the same.”
They are made of similar components (organelles) like nucleus and
mitochondrion, and they function similarly like they make proteins and
produce energy. Different cells are different based on the exact
function they have in the body. For example, blood cells are like bowls
so they can carry oxygen. Muscle cells can contract.
SS 5 - 8
QUESTION WORTH: $200
What compound can NO living thing exist
without?
Water.
SS 5 - 8
QUESTION WORTH: $400
What is the mitochondrion?
The POWERHOUSE of the cell. Glucose is burned there using
oxygen to produce energy for the cell.
SS 5 - 8
QUESTION WORTH: $600
Define a gene.
A gene is a segment of the DNA molecule that contains
INFORMATION about how to make a certain protein. Genes are like
the blueprint of a house. The blueprint tells the contractor how to build
a house, genes tell the cells how to build proteins.
SS 5 - 8
QUESTION WORTH: $800
Describe the difference between sexual and
asexual reproduction.
Asexual reproduction requires ONE parent. The offspring are
IDENTICAL to the parent because they contain the same genes.
Sexual reproduction requires TWO parents. Genetic material from two
parents combines to produce a new organism which DIFFERS from
both parents.
SS 9 - 12
QUESTION WORTH: $200
What is an allele?
Chemical factors within the cell that give information
about traits are called GENES. Genes are segments of the
DNA molecule. Alleles are different versions of the SAME
gene. For each gene, there are TWO alleles. ONE allele is
passed from the father in the sperm. ONE allele is passed
from the mother in the egg.
SS 9 - 12
QUESTION WORTH: $400
What is probability?
The laws of probability determine what is LIKELY to occur, NOT
what actually DOES occur.
SS 9 - 12
QUESTION WORTH: $600
How do the laws of probability apply to
genetics?
The laws of probability apply to the allele that each parent will pass to
its offspring through the sperm or the egg. Using the laws of
probability we can determine the chances of offspring receiving a
certain allele from the mother or the father. Depending on the allele
that the offspring will get, its trait will be determined.
SS 9 - 12
QUESTION WORTH: $800
Explain the theory of evolution.
The theory of evolution states that all species arise from other preexisting species. Through time, the species accumulate differences.
These differences separate one species from another. It is based on the
following principles: genetic variation, overproduction and natural
selection (survival of the fittest).
SS 13 - 16
QUESTION WORTH: $200
What is the connection between evolution
and genetics?
For evolution to happen there MUST be change in specific genes of all
member of the population. Change in genes is called mutation.
Mutations are usually harmful but in RARE cases they can be helpful.
If this happens, and the mutation eventually affects the entire species,
the species has evolved. Evolution has happened.
SS 13 - 16
QUESTION WORTH: $400
How do skeletal muscles help you move?
Skeletal muscles cells are fibers that can ONLY contract (shorten).
Skeletal muscles work in pairs. Movement happens when one muscle
pulls a bone in one direction, and another muscle pulls the bone the
opposite direction.
SS 13 - 16
QUESTION WORTH: $600
Describe the 5 functions of the skeletal
system.
Shape and support
Protection of organs
Movement
Production of blood cells
Storage of minerals
SS 13 - 16
QUESTION WORTH: $800
Name the 11 systems in the human body.
Describe the function of 5.
Endocrine; Circulatory; Excretory; Respiratory; Digestive;
Skeletal; Muscular; Integumentary; Immune; Reproductive;
Nervous.
SS 17 - 19
QUESTION WORTH: $200
What is meant by the statement, “It is the
brain that sees and the brain that hears, not
the eye or the ear.”
The brain Interprets electrical signals (nerve impulses) as images or
sounds.
SS 17 - 19
QUESTION WORTH: $400
Explain the role of the hormone
testosterone.
Testosterone is the hormone that controls the development of the male
characteristics such as having a penis, deep voice and body hair.
SS 17 - 19
QUESTION WORTH: $600
Explain the process of fertilization of the
egg in humans.
Millions of sperm cells enter a female’s body. They swim up the
vagina, through the uterus and into the fallopian tube. If the woman
has released an egg from her ovary, the sperm can reach it and the
process of fertilization can begin. Usually, only ONE sperm will
penetrate the egg’s coating. When the DNA of the sperm and the DNA
of the egg join, fertilization has happened.
SS 17 - 19
QUESTION WORTH: $800
Explain the role of the placenta in
pregnancy.
The link between the embryo and the mother is the placenta, a
structure that allows the embryo’s blood vessels to flow next to the
mother’s blood vessels to exchange materials. It allows the embryo
to receive nutrients, water and oxygen from the mother and give off
carbon dioxide and other waste products back to the mother.
