Biology 2201 TERM 1- REVIEW-January 2009

1. Look at all worksheets and quizzes and tests given out in class.

2. State the main points of the cell theory.

3. List the processes that all living things can perform.

4. Label the parts of the light microscope and be able to describe their functions.

5. Describe the steps to be followed in order to properly focus a microscope.

6. What are the defining features of prokaryote and eukaryote cells? How are they different from each other?

7. State the functions of the major parts of a eukaryotic cell. The cell organelles that students should know are:

Nucleus	Nucleolus	Endoplasmic Reticulum	Cell Membrane
Ribsosomes	Lysosomes	Cell Wall	Centrioles
Mitochondria	Chloroplasts	Cytoplasm	Peroxisomes
Golgi Apparatus	Vesicles	Chromosome	DNA

8. Name three differences between plant and animal cells.

9. Compare each of the important Bio-molecules in terms of the functions of these molecules within cells.

10. Describe the structure and functions of the cell membrane. What does selectively permeable mean?

11. Explain the processes by which materials are transported into and out of the cells of living organisms: (ie. the substances are, is cell energy used, what cell parts are involved?)

a) Passive transport

-- Diffusion -- Facilitated Diffusion -- Osmosis

b) Active Transport

-- Active transport (explain the Na/K pump)

-- Bulk Membrane Transport (Exocytosis and Endocytosis and Phagocytosis and Pinocytosis)

12. Compare and contrast the processes of Photosynthesis and Aerobic Cellular Respiration in terms of products and reactants (starting materials), and state the importance of these two processes to all living things.

13. Name the different types of cellular respiration. For each type list the starting materials, the end products, the cells they occur in and if they require oxygen.

14. What are the names of the three Domains of life? How are the cells in each domain different from each?

15. List the basic characteristics of the 6 Kingdoms of living organisms.(cell type, nutrition, cell wall chemistry, unicellular or multicellular, reproductive methods)

16. Be able to compare the 6 kingdoms in terms of the features listed in question 15. For example; why is a plant a plant and not an animal?

-- Kingdom Bacteria -- Kingdom Archaea --Kingdom Protista

-- Kingdom Fungi -- Kingdom Animalia --Kingdom Plantae

17. Know the correct order for the hierarchical system of classification of organisms.

18. What are viruses and why are they difficult to classify as living or not?

19. Be able to use and construct a dichotomous key.

20. What are the names of the three types of Protists? What features are used to identify each group?

21. Explain Alternation of Generations in Plants and know the dominant generation in each plant phylum.

22. What two abilities does having vascular tissue allow in plants?

23. Describe the characteristics and give examples of the four different plant groups.

24. Label a diagram of a flower and describe the functions of its parts.

25. Explain the differences between a seed and a spore.

26. List reasons why Angiosperms (flowering plants) are the most diverse plant group.

27. List reasons why gymnosperms are well adapted plants for cold/dry environments.

28. List reasons why Arthropods and the most diverse and numerous Invertebrates

29. List the steps involved in pollination and seed and fruit formation in angiosperms.

30. List the steps involved in pollination and seed formation in gymnosperms.

31. Describe the major characteristics of the members of the Animal Kingdom.

32. Explain what symbiosis is and explain the three different types.

33. Distinguish between Invertebrate and Vertebrate animals

34. Be able to list, give examples of, and the basic characteristics of each of the 8 invertebrate animal phyla that we have studied. Porifera, Cnidaria, Platyhelminthes, Nematodes, Annelids, Mollusks, Arthropods, and Echinoderms.

35. Know the reproductive lifecycle of:

Viruses (Lytic cycle and Retrovirus cycle)

Bacteria (Binary Fission, Conjugation, Endospore formation)

Protista (Plasmodium pg 146 in text note gametes, zygote, sporozoites)

Fungi pg154. Bread Mold

(Sexual: + and - Stolons (sideways growing hyphae) join to result in a zygospore which

becomes a sporangium and sexual spores which spread & mature into new fungi)

(Asexual: Sporangiophores (upward growing hyphae) form a sporangium which fills with

asexual spores which spread & mature into new fungi)

Plants (Fern lifecycle pg 173. note role of : antheridium, archegonium, prothallus and sporangium)
