200-1
Why do organisms need energy?
Organisms need energy to grow and develop, to
move and to allow organs and cells to function.
400-1
What is photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is the process by which green
plants produce their own food using sunlight, water
and carbon dioxide.
600-1
If an organism is unable to adapt to its
surroundings and maintain homeostasis,
what will happen to the organism?
It will die.
800-1
What do all organisms need to produce energy?
Nutrients and water
1000-1
What is the difference between an autotroph
and a heterotroph? Give specific examples of
each.
An autotroph produces its own food. All plants are
autotrophs. A heterotroph must consume (eat) its
food. All animals are heterotrophs.
200-2What is the ability of an
organism to maintain a stable internal
environment (inside its body) even when the external environment
(outside its body) changes?
Homeostasis
400-2
What is a stimulus?
A stimulus is any change that causes an organism
to react.
600-2
What is a response?
A response is an organism’s reaction to a
stimulus.
800-2
Any change an organism makes which makes it
better able to survive in its environment is known
as an ___________.
Adaptation
1000-2After a running a marathon,
Lauren is feeling extremely thirsty since her muscles used up a great
deal of water during the race. Lauren retrieves her water bottle and drinks some water to relieve
her thirst.
What is the stimulus in this passage? What is the response in
this passage?
The stimulus is thirst.
The response is drinking water.
200-3
Which cell organelle contains genetic
material and is the control center for the cell? It’s like the cell’s
brain.
Nucleus
400-3
Which cell structure
determines what enters and leaves the cell? It’s like a
screen door.
Cell membrane
600-3
Which cell structure provides a plant cell with structure and support? It’s like a
plant cell’s skeleton, except it’s not inside
the cell.
Cell wall
800-3
Which cell organelle allows plant cells to
perform photosynthesis?
Chloroplasts
1000-3
Name two structures which plant cells have
which animal cells do not.
Chloroplasts and a cell wall
200-4
What substance fills the inside of a
cell?
Cytoplasm
400-4
What is the process of cell division called
when a cell produces a copy of
itself?
Mitosis
600-4
What is the process of cell division called
when a cell produces new cells for the
purpose of reproduction (sperm
and eggs)?
Meiosis
800-4
If mitosis is not performed correctly
and cells start reproducing
uncontrollably, what disease can that
cause?
Cancer
1000-4
200-5
What is another word for grouping things together?
Classification
400-5
What is the classification of living things?
Taxonomy
600-5
Which taxonomic grouping contains
the most organisms and which contains
the fewest?
A kingdom has the most organisms
and a species has the fewest organisms.
800-5
Which taxonomic grouping contains
organisms which share the most characteristics
and which contains organisms which share
the fewest characteristics?
Organisms in the same species share the most characteristics, while
organisms in a kingdom share fewer characteristics.
1000-5
What two taxa (groupings of living things) are used to write the scientific
name of an organism?
Genus and species (i.e. Homo sapiens- Homo is the genus;
sapiens is the species)
FINAL JEOPARDY
Use the dichotomous key provided to
determine which flag is the flag of Cote
d’Ivoire?
