Chp. 4 Biology Study Guide Page 1 8/30/2011 BIOLOGY STUDY GUIDE CHAPTER 4– THE CHEMICAL BASIS OF LIFE Matter = anything that takes up space and has mass (major types of matter = solid‚ liquid‚ and gas) Any type of matter is made of one or more elements. o Element = a substance that cannot be broken down into other substances by regular chemical processes. (examples: gold‚ silver‚ mercury‚ etc.) There are approximately 25 elements necessary for life. • Examples: oxygen‚ carbon‚ hydrogen‚

------------------------------------------------- Enzyme Pre-Lab Harry Kang 9/26/12 1) The purpose of this lab was to determine the rate of enzyme activity under variety of different conditions‚ such as‚ different amount of drops of enzymes and different temperature of water. The class measured the pressure in the test tube during the reaction of the substance with‚ 1.5 ml of H2O2‚ 1.5ml of H2O and different amounts of enzyme drops‚ to determine how much oxygen gas is produced during the reaction

1. There are two main types of cells‚ prokaryotic and eukaryotic. The connection between the two can be seen right from their prefixes‚ pro meaning before and eu meaning true or good. This is because prokaryotic cells are before a nucleus and eukaryotic cells possess a true nucleus. This has led to many theories that eukaryotic cells have evolved from prokaryotes. The evidence for this is most noticeable in the structure of the cells‚ which will be compared below. Prokaryotic cells have no

List of questions for exam 1 (Chapter 1) 1. Discuss the relationship between "efficiency" and "effectiveness" and identify real organizations you think are‚ or are not‚ efficient and/or effective. Organizations are Efficient when managers minimize the amount of resources or time needed to produce a given output of goods or services. Organizations are effective when managers choose appropriate goals and then achieve them. When a company is both efficient and effective‚ they can produce a product
