Specific objectives 1. Define crustal plates A crustal plate is a rigid layer of the Earth’s crust that is believed to drift slowly. 2. Name and locate the Caribbean adjacent plates. Plates adjacent to the Caribbean plate are South American plate which is located south of the Caribbean plate‚ North American plate which is located north of the Caribbean plate‚ Nazca plate which is locate west of the Caribbean plate and the Cocoa plate which is located south west of the Caribbean plate. 3. Distinguish

Peter Dang Mrs. Truesdell AP Biology Period 5 2 October 2013 CHAPTER 7 STUDY GUIDE AN OVERVIEW OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS Autotrophs are plants that can feed themselves by making their own food. Photo-autotrophs are organisms that produce organic molecules from inorganic molecules using the energy of light. Producers are when plants make their own organic molecules. A redox reaction is oxidation and reduction. Photosynthesis takes water and carbon dioxide to make glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration

Chapter 21 Notes: Kingdom Fungi! Name_________________________ 21-1: The Kingdom Fungi A. What Are Fungi? Fungi include MANY DIFFERENT types of organisms From tiny yeast cells To the one of the largest organisms in the world! Fungi are: Multicellular (except for yeasts) Eukaryotic Heterotrophic Decomposers: decompose dead and decaying material -Recyclers! -Secrete enzymes OUTSIDE bodies - Absorb digested nutrients Hyphae: long‚ slender‚ root-like filament Septa: cross-walls

Definite pattern to growth and development * Directed by DNA (genetic material where the genes are found) * Energy processing: All organisms must have energy * Humans: Food (Heterotrophs = other-feeding (fungi and most bacteria)) * Plants/Algae: Photosynthesis to create food energy (Autotrophs = Self-feeding) * Response to the environment: Respond to stimuli (perceived or not) * Perceived: sound‚ touch‚ smell‚ sight‚ temp * Not: Gravity * Reproduction: Sexual

fungi are protists. -most protists are multicultural. -contain organelles‚ a nucleus‚ etc. -use pseudopodia (cellular extensions)‚ cilia and flagella to move. Ex: zooflagelletes Animal-like protists -heterotrophs that capture and ingest food. Ex: amoeba. Plant like protists -autotrophs that make their own food. Ex: algae. 2.3 Fungi -fungi are heterotrophic‚ break down food themselves. -made of hypae. Hyphae are tiny threads of cytoplasm. -chitin builds their cell wall‚ chitin is a

Chapter 18 Outline: Diversity and Variation 18.1 The Species Concept TAXONOMY- classifying organisms in ways that reflect relationships and help distinguish one type of organism from another. SPECIES- group of organisms that is capable of breeding offspring‚ or mating‚ with another in nature to produce fertile offspring. Individual members of a species may look very different from eachother. Such differences among members of a species are known as variations Natural selection

Sam Rausser Wednesday‚ August 17‚ 2011 3:38 PM Once glucose is made‚ glucose molecules can be converted (by plants) to… 1) monosaccharides‚ like fructose 2) Disaccharides a. Maltose (glu‐glu) seeds b. Sucrose (glu‐fru) sugar cane‚ sugar beets 3) Polysaccharides a. Starch‚ food storage in roots (chains of glucose) b. Cellulose‚ plant structure (chains of glucose) 4) Amino Acids a. Glucose + N from ground 5) Lipids‚ specifically oils which are energy source in seeds & phospholipids found in membranes
