Identification key

can be used to identify different types organism

A Dichotomous key is a special key and it helps you identify an organism by presenting you with a series of choices that describe characteristics of the organisms your identifying

Classification Hierarchy

The groups that have the largest number of different organisms are called domains. There are three domains archaea, bacteria and eukarya

The next level in the hierarchy is called kingdom. The domain archaea and bacteria only have one kingdom while eukarya has four plants, animals, fungi and protists

Cells

Plant cells

Chlorophyll- captures the nergery of sunlight and uses it to from a chemical reaction that combines water and carbon dioxide to make glucose- which makes a simple sugar plants use as food.

Photosynthesis the food making process.

chloroplasts- food making structures of plant cells, contains the green pigment.

cell wall- outer barrier that provides extra support for the cell and gives its a shape. made mostly of cellulose- a fiber that is the main component of wood and paper

Animal cell

Mitochondria- uses oxygen to transform the energy in food to form the cell can use to carry out its activities. "powerhouses of cells"

Vacuoles- fluid filled structures temporarily store different substances needed. some are specialized to store waste product. Animal cells often have many vacuoles.

Cytoplasm- gel like fluid takes up most of the space in a cell.Mostly water with other substances dissolved. throughout the cytoplasm are many structures called organelles- carry out the activities that keep the cells alive

Nucleus- located near the center of a animal cell the nucleus is home to the cells chromosomes - Genetic structures that contain the information used to direct cell activity and make new cells.

Nucleolus- found inside the nucleus. Is responsible for making ribosomes which are then transported to the cytoplasm.

Nuclear membrane- surrounds and protects the nucleus

cell membrane-encloses the cell, gatekeeper, allows some material through but not all

A cell is the basic unit of structure and function of life. "cells make up living things"

Prokarayotic cells- cells that do not have a membrane-bound structures Eukaryotic cells - cells that have membrane-bound structures

Unicellular- made of only one cell the single cell carries out all of the activities that keep the organism alow it to reproduce ex. Escherichia coli,Diatoms, Protozoa Protista, Streptococcus. Multicellular- made of many cells these cells work together to keep the organism alive and reproducing ex. earthworms, trees, mushrooms and humans

in Multicellular organisms many cells are specialized to do one job this allows them to be able to perform so many functions

Dna

Genes- segments of DNA that carry instructions for the traits of a organism from parent to offspring.

your genes determine your traits

Blue print for cells

DNA- the genetic material found is a cells nucleus

Ecosystems

Symbiosis- a close relationship between two species.

Parasitism- occurs when a parasitic organism feeds on the cells , tissue and fluids of another organism.

Commensalism- a relationship where one species benefit and the other is unaffected.

Mutualism - a relationship in which both species benefiet

Predation- type of feeding relationship in which the predator captures and eats the prey.

prevents overpopulation from happening in the ecosystem

Ecosystems- all of the population that live in the area including physical factors,

Species- a group of organisms that can mate and produce offspring

Populations- where organisms of the same species live in the same place at the same time. ex mice living in a small meadow. all pines trees in a Forrest.

limiting factors-

water

living space

light

food

Community- populations share the environment to create a..
