Unit 1 Exam 1 Study Guide Below is a sampling of questions that you may find on this exam. If you can completely and accurately answer the following questions, you should have a solid working understanding of all the material and concepts we have covered in this unit. You will also find the competencies and learning objectives that you have been working with so far in this course. You may also want to go back to the practice quizzes, project(s), worksheets, and textbook chapters from this unit to help you study the concepts related to the competencies and objectives. Unit 1 Competencies and Learning Objectives Competency 1: Use the scientific method to analyze data within a given data set Learning Objective 1.1: Distinguish between science and pseudoscience Learning Objective 1.2: Differentiate between a hypothesis and a theory Learning Objective 1.3: Differentiate the control versus the experimental group(s) Learning Objective 1.4: Describe and identify variables Learning Objective 1.5: Develop a hypothesis Learning Objective 1.7: Analyze data and draw the appropriate conclusion Learning Objective 1.8: Interpret a graph showing experimental results Competency 2: Summarize the patterns and processes of evolution and the resulting unity and diversity of life Learning Objective 2.13: Compare and contrast the major groups of living organisms Learning Objective 2.14: Describe the basic attributes that are used to define “life” Learning Objective 2.15: Define the levels of organization from atoms to ecosystems Learning Objective 2.16: List in order the levels of organization from atoms to ecosystems Competency 3: Recognize the chemical basis of life Learning Objective 3.1: Determine the correct number of protons, electrons, and neutrons, given atomic number and mass number (periodic table)Learning Objective 3.2: Identify the correct Bohr model of an atomLearning Objective 3.3: Explain how the electron configuration determines chemical reactivityLearning Objective 3.4: Define ionic, covalent, and hydrogen bonds Learning Objective 3.5: Explain how hydrogen bonds make water the solvent of lifeLearning Objective 3.6: List the properties of waterLearning Objective 3.7: Determine whether a molecule is hydrophilic or hydrophobic based on its structureLearning Objective 3.8: Identify macromolecules as polymers of unique subunits built through dehydration synthesis and broken down by hydrolysisLearning Objective 3.9: Describe the function and structure of macromoleculesLearning Objective 3.10: Explain why carbon is the central element of life Review Questions The Scientific Method & What is Biology? What is science? Can you describe the entire process of the scientific method with all the steps of the process and the additional two vital components of hypothesis testing? Can you explain the importance of controls in experimental design (perhaps by using an example)? Can you describe what pseudoscience is, how it differs from actual science, and explain why you never engage in pseudoscience? Can you explain what types of questions or ideas science can answer and what types of questions and ideas science cannot answer? Can you explain how the Linnaean classification system works, in terms of determining the evolutionary relationship among species, grouping organisms together in natural (monophyletic) groups, naming organisms appropriately using binomial nomenclature, and then placing them in their appropriate Linnaean categories? Can you explain how the nested hierarchy of the Linnaean classification system can accurately reflect evolutionary history? Can you list all the criteria we use to define life and describe how that is different from non-living matter? Can you explain the difference between a hypothesis and a theory in science? And why we use the term ‘Theory’ rather than ‘Law’ or ‘Fact’? Make sure you are able to define and use the vocabulary terms that are found in both the Module 1 Vocabulary Quizlet and the Module 2 Vocabulary Quizlet. The Chemical Basis of Life What is Matter? What is an Element? What is an Atom? Can you explain how the Periodic Table of The Elements is organized? What do the Atomic Numbers represent? Do you understand the Bohr model of atomic structure, how electrons are distributed and orbit around the nucleus of the atom? Can you explain what a covalent bond is and how it works? Can you explain what an Ionic bond is and how it works? Why is water known as a Polar Covalent compound? What is a hydrogen bond, and why do they occur between polar water molecules? Can you explain the four unique properties of water? Why do they allow water to be the medium in which all life exists? Why are all of these properties a result of the presence of the hydrogen bond? What defines an organic compound? Can you explain why organic compounds are so diverse? Make sure you are able to define and use the vocabulary terms that are found in the Module 3 Vocabulary Quizlet. Macromolecules What are the four major groups of biological molecules? Why are the four groups of biological molecules known as ‘Macromolecules’? Can you explain the process of dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis? How do these simple processes allow these macromolecules to be easily built and broken down? Can you explain the structure of carbohydrates (monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides)? Can you explain the primary function of carbohydrates in animals and their secondary functions in plants and animals for example? Can explain the structure of proteins (primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary)? Can you list at least three functions that proteins have and explain how proteins perform those functions? Can you explain what defines lipids? Can you list the four groups of lipids? Can you describe the structure of phospholipids and their single function? Can describe the structure of Triglycerides, what primary function they play in animal biology, and the difference between saturated and unsaturated fats? Can you explain the structure of the double-stranded double helix of DNA and its sole function? Make sure you are able to define and use the vocabulary terms that are found in the Module 4 Vocabulary Quizlet.
