What is Dichotomous Key? A key to help classify organisms
What evidence do we use to classify organisms Behavior and physical appearance Method used for reproduction, locomotion, diet and habitat Cells and DNA analysis
INSECTS Back to Contents
Characteristics of arthropods and insects Exoskeleton Invertebrate
Special insect orders Coleoptera – beetles Diptera – Flies Hymenoptera – Ants and Bees Hemiptera – Aphids Orthoptera – Grasshoppers and Crickets Lepidoptera – Butterflies and Moths
How do insects make sounds? Tymbals Beating their wings Spiracles Snapping mandibles
What are insects mouthparts called? What are the three different types of mouthparts? They are called mandibles The three different mouthparts are – piercing, sponging, siphoning.
Metamorphosis: What are the three types? Molting- shedding skin Incomplete – egg, nymph, adult Complete – egg, larva, pupa, adult
MICROSCOPES
Who are the three founding fathers of microscopy? Hooke Leeuwenhoek Janssen
What did Hooke accomplish? Observed cork “cells”; coined the term “cell”
What did Leeuwenhoek accomplish? Observed bacteria and protists
What did Janssen accomplish? First compound microscope
Total Magnification Eyepiece x objective lens
Eyepiece 4x Magnification; look through at the top
Barrel Changes resolution
Arm Used to hold the microscope
Revolving Nosepiece Allows you to change between magnification lenses
Stage Clips Holds the slide in place
Objectives Scanning, low power, high power lenses
Stage Stop Stops stage from moving
Stage Opening Allows light to come through
Stage Where the specimen rests
Coarse Focus Knob Moves stage for scanning and low power lenses only
Diaphragm Controls light (yay)
Illuminator With Bulb Light source
Fine Focusing Knob For high power ONLY
On/Off Switch Self explanatory
Base Bottom of Microscope
CELLS Back to Contents
What are Levels of organization from cells to organism? 1.Cells 2.Tissues 3.Organs 4.Organisms 5.Population 6.Community
What are the 2 types of Cells? Somatic (body cells) Gametes (sex cells)
Eukaryote cells vs Prokaryote cells Eukaryotic cellsProkaryotic cells Have nucleus Membrane-bound organelles Cell membrane DNA Liquid cytoplasm Ribosomes Some have cell walls Complex Both unicellular and multicellular Cell membrane DNA Liquid cytoplasm Ribosomes cell walls Simple Unicellular
Animal vs. Plant cell Animal cellsPlant cells Nucleus Cytoplasm Ribosomes Golgi body Mitochondrion Cell membrane Vacuole (smaller in animal cell) Endoplasmic reticulum Lysosomes (not in plant) Centrioles (not in plant) Nucleus Cytoplasm Ribosomes Golgi body Mitochondrion Cell membrane Vacuole (larger in plant cell than animal) Chloroplast (not in animal) Cell wall (not in animal) Endoplasmic reticulum
Nucleus Brain of cell
Cytoplasm Liquid substance in cell that holds organelles
Ribosomes Protein producers. They can be attached to the ER
Golgi Body External delivery system
Mitochondrion Convert energy in food molecules to energy the cell can use to carry out its functions
Cell membrane Regulates what goes in and out of the cell
Vacuole Storage areas of a cell. Huge in plant cell.
Chloroplasts Capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food. (plant only)
Cell wall Stiff wall surrounding membrane. (plant only)
Endoplasmic Reticulum Internal delivery system
lysosomes Contain chemicals to break down food particles and worn out cell parts. (animals only)
Centrioles Help with cell division. (animals only)
What is diffusion Movement of molecules from areas of high to low concentration
What is osmosis Diffusion of water across a semi- permeable membrane
What is active transport Movement of molecules across a membrane using cellular energy. Often against concentration gradient
photosynthesis The process by which a cell captures energy in sunlight in order to make food
Respiration Process by which cells obtain energy from glucose
SCIENTIFIC METHOD Back to Contents
What are the steps of the scientific method? 1.Research 2.Problem Question 3.Hypothesis 4.Develop your Procedure 5.Collect and Record Data 6.Analyze Results 7.Draw Conclusions
Independent Variable The variable that you control
Dependent Variable Changes because of the Independent Variable
Experimental Group Tested Group
Control Group The group used for comparison
Control(s) What is kept constant throughout the experiment
Research Look up information to develop your hypothesis
Purpose/Proble m Question The purpose of the experiment
Hypothesis A statement that tells what you think is going to happen
Procedure Decide how you are going to do your experiment
Collect and record data When you do the experiment and you collect and record data
Analyze Results Translate your data into words
Draw Conclusions -Was your hypothesis correct?(y/n) -Why?(…) -What would you do differently next time? -What possible errors? -etc.
