Theory is an assumption that is backed up by many experiments it is often believed as true. Term what is the difference between experimental group and controlled group Definition 3. The difference between a controlled group and experimental group is that in a experimental group things are added to the experiment to see what the difference is between that and the controlled group. Ex. 2 plants they want to know if miracle grow works better then natural soil. So the experimental contains the miracle grow the other nothing. Term what is the difference between qualitive and quantitative Definition quantitative is #'s qualitive is letters Term variable Definition cause change Term what is the difference between and inference and fact Definition inference= is beleved to be true fact= it true Term what is Francesco Redi's Hypothesis Definition that maggots come from flies Term francesco redid's prediction Definition that maggots come from flies that laided eggs on the meat Term francesco redid's controled experiment Definition closed jar with lid Term francesco redid's theory Definition was that maggots do come from flies that laid eggs on the meat Term what hold atoms together Definition covalent bonds hold the atom together Term an atom is said to be charged when it has _________ type of bond? Definition Term what is the smallest unit of matter Definition an atom Term a bond in which electrons are shared is called a ________ bond Definition a covalent bond Term where are the reactants located in a chemiacl equation Definition reactants are on the left Term where are the products located in a chemiacl equation Definition products are located on the right of the ----> Term what happened to the atoms in a chemical reaction Definition the atoms are rearranging Term Which category is the moden classification system is the most specific Definition spies Term Which category in the modern classification system it the broadest Definition kingdom Term what is taxonomy Definition the science of classifying things Term why is binomial nomenclature used instead of common name Definition because common names are to confuseing because for some animals there are more then one name just in a different part of the state so it could get really confuseing Term would animals with the same genus be closely realated Definition yes Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species Term What kingdom indcludes mushrooms and mold Definition Fungi Term What kingdom included organisms that are all prokaryotic Definition monera Term which kingdom includes heterotrophic, multicellular organisms, that are monile Definition animila Term what kingdom includes protozoa like amoeba and paramecium Definition protista Term which kingdom includes bacteria and blue-green algae Definition monera Term what kingdom would a multicellular, autotrophic, eukaryotic, and complex structured belong to Definition plantae Term what class would a multicellular, hetrophic and plant-like structued belong Definition fungi Term can two organism that are classified in the same class be in the same family Definition yes, if they are in the same order Kingdom,Phylum, Class, Order,Family, Genus, Species Term are common names the same around the world Definition no, some common names arent even the same in the same country let alone the world. Term what is the difference between heterotroph and autotroph Definition heterotroh can ~NOT~ make its own food Autotroph makes it own food Term do plants from the plantae kingdom make their own food or get it from another source Definition they make their own food and it is called photosynthsis Term do organisms of the same genus have to be in the same order Definition yes, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species Term what power should you be on when you are trying to find an object with a microscope Definition the lowest power, becasue it gives you the biggest field of view Term what happenes to the field of view when u change it from the lowest power to the hightest power Definition it gets smaller Term how do you figure out the total magnification of a microscope Definition you x the occular by the power ours is 10 x the power u are on Term as you look through the eyepiece, what happenes to the image as you move your slide to the left in a compound microscope Definition it moves right or the opposite direction you move the slide Term what is the highest maginification that your microscope is capable of Definition our compound microscope 400 Term cell energay potential energy kinetic energy cellular respiration arobic anarobic Definition potential= energy at rest kinetic = energy in motion cellular res.= ...?? arobic= w/ oxygeen, needs boost of energy to get started anarobic= w/out oxygeen Term cell energay potential energy kinetic energy cellular respiration arobic anarobic Definition potential= energy at rest kinetic = energy in motion cellular res.= ...?? arobic= w/ oxygeen, needs boost of energy to get started anarobic= w/out oxygeen Term what are the sturctures of lipids, proteins, and sugars Definition lipids= proteins= sugars=
