Chapter 10 notes Photosynthesis Photosynthesis In Nature All life acquires organic compounds for energy and carbon skeletons by one of two ways - ______________: (autos = self, trophos = feed) - they sustain themselves w/out eating other organisms Photosynthesis In Nature - plants are _________________ because they use light as a source of energy - __________: (hetero = other, different) - live on compounds produced by other organisms Heterotrophs are dependent on photoautotrophs for food and oxygen Photosynthesis In Nature ________________ are the site of photosynthesis in plants All green parts of plants have chloroplasts - color is from ____________, the green pigment in the chloroplasts

Unit 1: Scientific Method and Interdependence: Chapters 1, 33 - 36 Chapter 1: The Study of Life Hierarchy of levels: Atoms to molecules to cells to tissues to organs to organ systems to organisms. Characteristics of life, and definition of life: Life is characterized by (1) organization, (2) acquisition of materials and energy, (3) reproduction, (4) responses to stimuli, (5) homeostasis, (6) growth and development and (7) the capacity to adapt. Classification system to group organisms (DKPCOFGS): Systematics: Domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species. Human classification: Domain Euakarya Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata (vertebrae) Class Mammalia Order Primates Family Hominidae Genus Homo Species Homo sapiens

Chapter 11 Cell Communication Overview: The Cellular Internet Cell-to-cell communication is essential for multicellular organisms Biologists have discovered some universal mechanisms of cellular regulation The combined effects of multiple signals determine cell response The dilation of blood vessels is controlled by multiple molecules Concept 11.1: External signals are converted to responses within the cell Microbes are a window on the role of cell signaling in the evolution of life Evolution of Cell Signaling A signal transduction pathway is a series of steps by which a signal on a cell?s surface is converted into a specific cellular response Signal transduction pathways convert signals on a cell?s surface into cellular responses

How Are Fungi Important In Nature? Raven St. Jean Fungi play a major role in both nature and society in the sense that they are a huge resource for many things, like medicine. Fungi serve a purpose to the earth, humans, and many animals and plants. First, fungi are very beneficial to life on earth by recycling material. Without bacteria and fungi, gardening plants would be impossible. They lock up plant nutrients until they?re needed and can be used by the plants. This act reduces leeching of vital nutrients from the soil and makes a great home to plants. They also retain water in the soil for plants. The greatest deed that fungi do is act as a decomposer and break down dead matter into components that other plants and animals can eat.

Chapter 1: Principles of Life Concept 1.1: Living Organisms Share Common Aspects of Structure, Function and Energy Flow Biology is the scientific study of living things All living things have a single common ancestor Life as we know it had a single origin All organisms: All organisms are composed of cells and organic material (amino acids, nucleic acids etc.) Contain genetic information for protein synthesis and reproduction Convert environmental molecules into biological molecules Use external energy for internal processes Maintain homeostasis Replicate DNA to prepare for reproduction Maintain similar genetic sequences in the fundamental set of genes Change their genetic information according to changes in environment (evolution)

Summary 1. Life emerged on the earth through two phases of development: a chemical evolution of the organic molecules, biopolymers, and systems of chemical reactions to form the first cells and the biological evolution from single-celled prokaryotic bacteria to single-celled eukaryotic creatures, and then to multicellular organisms. 2. Evolution is the change in a population’s genetic makeup over time. Evolution forces adaptations to changes in environmental conditions in a population. The diversity of life on earth reflects the wide variety of adaptations necessary and suggests that environmental conditions have varied widely over the life of the earth.
