14-3: Origin of Heredity
2
Hypothesis Testable explanation to a problem or a question
3
Theory Summarizes a hypothesis or group of hypotheses that have been supported with repeated testing. It is valid as long as there is no evidence to dispute it. EX. Cell Theory and Theory of Continental Drift
4
Law Generalizes a body of observations
Laws explain things, but they do not describe them EX. Law of Gravity
5
First Life Forms Role of RNA
Amino acids linked to make a chain that could make shapes like ribozymes (early ribosome) which could replicate itself
6
First Life Forms - The First Cells
Prokaryotes before eukaryotes 3 major trends all interrelated: Anaerobic Aerobic Heterotrophic Autotrophic Chemosynthetic Photosynthetic
7
First Life Forms The First Eukaryotes
Endosymbiosis Theory Mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to be prokaryotic cells that were engulfed by a bigger cell Supporting Evidence: Both organelles contain their own DNA DNA is circular (like other prokaryotes) Can replicate on their own.
8
Put these in the order in which they are thought to have originated on Earth
Anaerobic heterotrophic prokaryotes Aerobic eukaryotes Chemosynthetic prokaryotes Photosynthetic prokaryotes Answer: 1, 3, 4, 2
