Biology Ch. 1
Across
- 1. Organisms that eat both plants and other organisms.
- 4. Organisms that depend on other organisms for their food.
- 7. The sum total of all processes in an organism that breaks down chemicals to produce energy and simple chemicals building blocks.
- 8. An abrupt and marked change in DNA of an organism compared to that of its parents.
- 10. A microscope that shines light through a specimen using two lenses to magnify an image.
- 13. Organisms that eat only other organisms other than plants.
- 14. Organism that lacks and internal mechanism for regulating body heat.
- 17. The collected body of data from the experiment and observation.
- 19. Organisms that are able to make their own food.
- 20. A suggested, testable answer to a well-defined scientific question or a possible, testable explanation for observations.
- 23. the variable responding to the manipulated variable.
- 24. The group in and experiment that is manipulated (contains the independent variable).
- 26. The metric system (abbreviated SI) which is the most widely used system of measurement in science.
- 28. Special structures that allow living organisms to sense the conditions of their internal or internal environment.
- 30. Organisms that eat both plants and other organisms.
- 31. Organisms that are able to make their own food.
- 32. Quantitative or Qualitative aspects of an object or action that you take notice to.
- 33. The variable manipulated by the experiment.
- 34. A microscope that passes a beam of light over the surface of a specimen.
Down
- 2. An explanation of some part of the natural world that has been thoroughly tested and is supported by a significant amount of evidence from the observations and experiments
- 3. The maintenance of stable internal conditions.
- 5. A microscope that transmits a beam of electrons through a thinly sliced specimen.
- 6. The sum total of all the processes in an organism that covert energy and matter from outside sources and use that energy and matter to sustain the organism's life function.
- 9. Logical interpretation based on prior knowledge, experience, or evidence.
- 11. The process by which physical and biological characteristics are transmitted from the parent (or parents) to the offspring.
- 12. Organisms that eat only plants.
- 15. Process by which a single organism produces genetically identical offspring( offspring receives all the DNA from one parent).
- 16. The process by which green plants and some other organisms use the energy of sunlight and simple chemicals to produce their own food.
- 18. The idea that long ago, very simple life forms spontaneously appeared through chemical reactions.
- 21. Organism that is internally warmed by a heat generating metabolic process.
- 22. The group in and experiment that is manipulated (contains the independent variable).
- 25. The sum total of all processes in an organism that use energy and simple chemical building blocks to produce large chemicals and structures necessary for life.
- 27. Process by which two parents produce genetically different offspring( offspring receives a combination of DNA from two parents).
- 29. A description of a natural relationship or principle, often expressed in mathematical terms, and supported by a significant amount of evidence.
