2 Work on all missing assignments and Test Remediation Topics

3 Chapter 4 Vocabulary 1. Ecosystem- a community of organisms and their abiotic environment. 2. Biotic factor- an environmental factor that is associated with or results from the activities of living organisms. 3. Abiotic factor- the nonliving part of the environment, including water, rocks, light, and temperature. 4. Organism- a living thing: anything that can carry out life processes independently. 5. Species- a group of organisms that are closely related and can mate to produce fertile offspring: also the level of classification below genus. 6. Population-a group of organisms of the same species that live in a specific geographical area and interbreed. 7. Community- a group of various species that live in the same habitat and interact with each other. 8. Habitat- the place where an organism usually lives. 9. Natural selection- the process by which individuals that are better adapted to their environment survive and reproduce more successfully than less well adapted individuals do; a theory to explain the mechanism of evolution. 10. Evolution- a heritable change in the characteristics within a population from one generation to the next: the development of new types of organisms from preexisting types of organisms over time.

4 Chapter 4 Vocabulary continued 11. Adaptation-an anatomical, physiological, or behavioral change that improves a population s ability to survive. 12. Artificial selection- the selective breeding of organisms (by humans) for specific desirable characteristics. 13. Resistance- the ability of an organism to tolerate a chemical or disease-causing agent. 14. Archaebacteria- a kingdom made up of prokaryotes, most of which are known to live in extreme environments. 15. Eubacteria- a kingdom made up of all prokaryotes, true bacteria with a cell wall of peptidoglycan. 16. Fungus- an organism whose cells have nuclei (eukaryotic), rigid cell walls, and no chlorophyll and that belong to the kingdom Fungi. 17. Protist- an organism that is typically single celled, eukaryotic and found in water. 18. Gymnosperm- a woody vascular seed plant, whose seeds are not enclosed by an ovary or fruit. 19. Angiosperm- a flowering plant that produces seeds within a fruit. 20. Invertebrate- an animal that does not have a backbone. 21. Vertebrate- an animal that has a backbone: includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.

11 Communities 11. Can most organisms survive if they are taken away from their habitat? 12. What would you find in a lake community?

What would you find in a lake community? Populations of fish, insects, and other living organisms (including plants).

13 Adaptations 13.What can organisms adapt to? 14.Why are some organisms more likely to survive? 15.In order for evolution to occur in a population, what must an individual do if it has the trait that is naturally selected for?

14 Adaptations 13. What can organisms adapt to? Their surroundings (habitat/ environment) and other organisms (Coevolution) 14. Why are some organisms more likely to survive?

16 Evolution 16. How does an organism become resistant to a chemical? If it has a gene that protects it from the chemical (it can break down chemical) 17. What is coevolution? The process of two species changing genetically in response to long-term interactions with each other 18. How have Humans inadvertently (accidentally) promoted the evolution of insects that are resistant to insecticides? Trying to control pests with chemicals

17 Evolution 19. If an insect can no longer be killed by a particular insecticide, it has developed a(n) to the chemical. 20. What did Darwin propose was the mechanism for evolution? 21. What is the change in the genetic characteristics of a population from one generation to the next?
