Chapter 9 Study Guide 1. Explain the difference between aerobic respiration and fermentation. Fermentation is partial degradation of sugars that occurs without oxygen. Aerobic respiration consumes organic molecules and oxygen and yields ATP. 2. Diagram for photosynthesis and respiration 3. What are redox reactions? What is the difference between reduction and oxidation reactions? Redox reactions are chemical reactions that transfer between reactants. In oxidation‚ a substance loses

Biology Midterm Outline Topics: * Topic One: Chemistry of Living Things (p2-4) * Topic Two: The Cell (p5-6) * Topic Seven: Evolution (p23-27) * Topic Ten: State Labs (37-40) Topic One: Chemistry of Living Things I. All living things must maintain homeostasis in order to stay alive. A) Homeostasis: A balanced state in an organism’s body. B) Failure to maintain homeostasis results in disease or death. C) Homeostasis is often maintained using feedback mechanisms. 1. Feedback mechanisms

Chapter 16 Notes: The Molecular Basis of Inheritance Overview: Life’s Operating Instructions In 1953‚ James Watson and Francis Crick introduced an elegant double-helical model for the structure of DNA. DNA‚ the substance of inheritance‚ is the most celebrated molecule of our time. Hereditary information is encoded in DNA and reproduced in all cells of the body. This DNA program directs the development of biochemical‚ anatomical‚ physiological‚ and (to some extent) behavioral traits Early in
