Rubyna May L. Espiritu Sir Adrian Guinto BSEDSS 1-1N November 15‚ 2012 The Characteristics of Life There are many properties or the signs of life that the living organisms have. In the book of biology of Mrtinez and Nazareno‚ there are nine characteristics of life just said and those are : a. Living things are highly organized and contain many complex chemical substances ; b. Living things are made up of one or more cells‚ which are

Biology Honors Final Exam Review Study Guide A. Intro Unit * Characteristics of life (DR.CHARGE) * DNA * Directs protein synthesis * Reproduce * Divides in mitosis (asexual reproduction) * Cells * Homeostasis * The process by which cells maintain constant internal condition (water‚ temperature) * Adaptation (Evolution) * Respond to stimulus * Growth (Development) * Energy * Heterotroph: an organism that cannot synthesize its own food

movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Cells need to utilise diffusion to exchange materials from outside of the cell to the inside of the cell for them to survive. Diffusion is a passive process‚ which means it doesn’t involve the need of energy. For a cell to survive it relies greatly on its size or volume. The larger the cell‚ the less efficient the cell will be‚ as there will be relatively more surface area to exchange substances. A cells

CHapter 16 THE BEHAVIOR OF COSTS Changes from the Twelfth Edition All changes to Chapter 16 were minor. Approach We have retained our approach of putting all C-V-P topics in a single chapter because many schools’ marketing and management accounting core courses start simultaneously‚ and marketing likes to have break-even analysis covered early in the management accounting course. Also‚ if there are students in the course with work experience or‚ in the case of MBA courses‚ with some

As geologists‚ we examine layers of sediment on the Earth’s surface to approximate the dates of past geologic time periods. Ah sediment as you know is material like sand‚ gravel‚ fossil fragments that is transported by natural processes like wind ‚ water flow or the movement of glaciers. So sediment is transported and then deposited and it forms layers on the Earth’s surface over time. We examine these layers to learn about different geologic time periods including when they began and ended. For

Theoretical Fluid Mechanics Module#1: 1 1. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this module is to investigate hydrostatic forces on a plane surface under partial and full submersion. 2 2. DESCRIPTION The apparatus shown in Figure 1 will be used. It consists of a quarter circle block attached to a cantilevered arm with a rectangular surface on the other end. The pivot point on the arm corresponds to the center of radius of the block. With no water in the tank‚ and no weights on the

IB SL Biology Lab Molecular Biology: Transformation and Electrophoresis Christina Qi 2/16/07 Aim: How can a plasmid be engineered to include a foreign piece of DNA and how does gel electrophoresis separate DNA molecules present in a mixture? Hypothesis: If the pGLO plasmid is inserted into competent Escherichia coli cells‚ then the transformed bacteria will be resistant to ampicillin and will glow green under UV light. If samples of DNA are cut using certain restriction

Molar Volume of a Gas Objective: The objective is to determine the volume‚ of one mole of hydrogen gas at STP using experimental data‚ known mathematical relationships‚ and a balanced chemical equation. Theory: The goal of this lab is to find the volume of one mole of hydrogen at STP. The experimenters will be working with hydrochloric acid and magnesium to find the objective. The acid in this lab will react to the magnesium and cause the water in the eudiometer to rise because of the reaction

In biology species can become isolated from other species through a number of processes. These isolation processes keep the two species from interbreeding and producing hybrid offspring. There are five separate isolation processes that prevent two species capable of producing offspring from being able to do so. Ecological Isolation Ecological‚ or habitat‚ isolation is when two species that could interbreed do not because the species live in different areas. For example‚ in the wild of India both
