1 Cells, Classification, and Levels of Organization Review-Test Tuesday-2/17 Review due Thursday, 2/12 A. B. Explain the difference between a Explain to a friend at least five facts they unicellular and a multicellular organism. should know about Protists before they look at pond water under a microscope. Give an example of each: An example is: Complete the following content frame: Vocabulary Function Found (animal cells, plant cells, or both) Gatekeeper of the cell, allows some things in keeps other things out Found in both plant and animal cells Gel-like fluid that gives the cell its shape and has the organelles Found in both plant and animal cells It is like a brick wall, giving support and protection It is found in plant and fungi cells Brain of the cell, contains DNA, controls the functions of the cell Found in both plant and animal cells Captures energy from the sunlight to produce food, chlorophyll is here Found only in plant cells Stores the food, water, and other materials Found in both plants and animal cells Uses chemical to break down food and waste of an animal cell only Draw and label a bacteria cell-include the cell membrane, DNA, cytoplasm, and flagella

2 Label the diagrams below Cleans up waste Type of Cell- Cleans up waste and worn cell parts Stores food, water, and waste Create a venn diagram comparing and contrasting prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells

3 Complete the following content frame with the three Domains and six s Domain and characteristics Domain and characteristics Domain and characteristics Include whether the kingdom is: Eukaryotic or prokaryotic Heterotrophic or autotrophic Motile or sessile Asexual or sexual Multicelluar or unicellular ingdomkin 1. Which kingdoms have organisms with a cell wall? 2. Compare an autotroph to a heterotroph, give an example of each. 3. Explain the difference between motile and sessile, give examples.

4 4. Identify and write the domain and kingdom of each organism based on their characteristics. Domain

5 Complete the content frame. Vocabulary word Definition An individual form of life that is capable of growing, metabolizing nutrients, and usually reproducing A shark The function of an organism or population in a community A shark is a predator, consumer A group of organisms of the same species in the same place Many sharks in the Atlantic Ocean, Cape Cod, MA (A herd of sharks) All the populations of different species in a particular area. Sharks, eels, fish, coral, plants A system consisting of all the interactions between abiotic and biotic factors. Biotic, sharks, eels, fish, coral, and abiotic-water, soil, sunlight, air The natural home for an organism, sharks in the Atlantic Ocean All the living organisms-examples sharks, paramecium, algae All the non-living factors-wind, sun, air, clouds

6 5. Read the passage below and then create a t-chart with the biotic and abiotic factors. The Galapagos Islands are home to the Medium Ground Finch. This small bird lives on the ground and in the lowlands of this volcanic rock island. It avoids the higher forest altitudes. Seeds are the finches main food source, but flowers, buds, leaves, and an occasional insect are eaten. The lowland desert and prickly pear cacti provide spaces for them to build their nests. The finches live in a climate that is cool and dry. Temperatures range from degrees. Abundant rainfall causes more food to be produced that the finches eat. Predators include hawks, snakes, and barn owls. 6. Create and label a pyramid to illustrate the levels of organization in an ecosystem. You pick the ecosystems: forest, ocean, rain forest, desert, tundra, or river. 6. Create a t-chart with the abiotic and biotic factors from your pyramid from above. Explain how the biotic factors rely on the abiotic factors to live.
