Darwin & EvolutionCharles Darwin
Struggle for Existence – organisms compete against each other for necessary resources
Survival of the Fittest – those individuals best fit for their environment secure resources and surviveAdaptations – features or characteristics that
increase an organisms chance of survivalNatural Selection – Organisms with
beneficial adaptations survive and pass on beneficial traits to offspring
![Page 7: Honors Biology: Final Exam Review](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568166d2550346895ddae52c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Darwin & Evolution
Factors Leading to EvolutionMembers of the same species
become separated from one another and develop independently (speciation)
Change in Environmental Factors – due to natural or unnatural causes
Migration of organisms to a new environment (natural or unnatural)

Chapter 2: The Chemical Basis of Life
Types of Chemical Bonds:Ionic Bonds – attractions between ions of
opposite charge; involve one atom donating an electron to another atom
Covalent Bond – the sharing of pairs of electrons to join molecules together (single, double, triple)
Hydrogen Bonds – weak bonds formed by the slightly charge regions on neighboring molecules; responsible for H2O’s unique properties
![Page 9: Honors Biology: Final Exam Review](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568166d2550346895ddae52c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chapter 2: The Chemical Basis of Life
Properties of Water (thanks to polarity)Cohesion – the slight - charge of O attracts the slight
+ charge of H causing neighboring molecules to “stick” together (H bonds)
Adhesion– the slight charges of H2O molecules make it likely to “stick” to other things
Moderate Temperature – H bonds help H2O resist changes in temperature (HIGH boiling point)
Density – liquidH2O is MORE dense than solid H2OSolvent – polarity helps H2O to break down other
POLAR substances (non-polar substances like oils WILL NOT dissolve in H2O)

Early EarthStanley Miller & Howard Urey
showed that amino acids & other organic componds could have arisen from a lifeless Earth (chemical soup + lightening)
Evolution of oxygen-producing bacteria resulted in:oxygenation of the atmospheremassive extinction of many early anaerobic forms of
lifeextincting of bacteria unable to tolerate oxygenanarobic bacteria engulfing aerobic bacteria for
survival (endosymbiotic theory)

Chapter 4: A Tour of the Cell
Types of CellsProkaryotes – lack a “true” nucleus; lack
membrane-bound organelles; bacteriaEukaryotes – have a “true” nucleus; have
specialized membrane-bound organellesPlant Cells – contain cell walls, large vacuoles;
chloroplasts; square-ish in shapeAnimal Cells – contain only a cell membrane;
contain centrioles; irregular in shape

made up of glycerol, phosphate group (polar & hydrophilic), and 2 fatty acid tails (non-polar & hydrophobic); arranged with tails facing the interior & heads facing exterior
![Page 20: Honors Biology: Final Exam Review](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568166d2550346895ddae52c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Chapter 4: A Tour of the Cekk
Receptor Proteins – receive messages from outside the cell
Anchor Proteins – inside of membrane; aid in tethering organelles
Transport Proteins – transmembrane proteins that serves as passageways for larger molecules
Cholesterol – within bilayer; prevent solidifying of fatty acid tails

Chapter 4: A Tour of the Cell
Fluidity of the Phospholipid BilayerALL components of the bilayer are able to move
freely about one another; this is because:phosphoipids are unable to pack closely togetherkinks in the fatty acid chains allow for movement fatty acid chains are typically unsaturated (not
solid at room temperature)cholesterol prevents fatty acid tails from “sticking”
Permeability – ability to allow some molecules to pass through while blocking others (phenylthalanine & ammonia)
![Page 22: Honors Biology: Final Exam Review](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568166d2550346895ddae52c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Chapter 4: A Tour of the Cell
Cellular TransportDiffusion – “passive transport;” no ATP
required; random movement of molecules from an area of HIGH concentration to an area of LOW concentration Osmosis – diffusion of water from an area of HIGH
H2O concentration to an area of LOW H2O concentration (osmoregulation – regulation of H2O inside a cell)
Active Transport – use of ATP energy to molecule molecules (or maintain molecules) AGAINST a concentration gradient
![Page 23: Honors Biology: Final Exam Review](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568166d2550346895ddae52c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

40 % Sucrose60 % H2O
20 % Sucrose80 % H2O
• Outside environment is HYPERTONIC (less H2O; more sucrose) to inside•Inside environment is HYPOTONIC (more H2O; less sucrose) to outside
•THEREFORE H2O will LEAVE the cellISOTONIC solutions – have equal concentrations of both SOLUTES and H2O

Chapter 5: The Working Cell
Enzymes – biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions by lowering activation energyEnzymes are recyclable – they are not used up
or altered and can be used over and overEnzymes are VERY specific – each enzyme only
does ONE job; 3D structure determines its functionEnzymes have ideal temperatures and pHs -
if an an enzyme’s environment changes, it will become denatured (change shape) and not be able to function
![Page 28: Honors Biology: Final Exam Review](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568166d2550346895ddae52c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Chapter 5: The Working Cell
Exergonic Reactions – Products contain less energy than reactants; proceed spontaneously; release energy (heat)
Endergonic Reactions – Products contain more energy than reactants; DO NOT proceed spontaneously; absorb energy (heat)*
* feel cold to the touch
Exergonic and Endergonic reactions are usually coupled… the energy released from exergonic reactions can be used to power endergonic reactions!

Chapter 6: How Cells Harvest Chemical
EnergyCellular Respiration – the process by which
energy is obtained from organic compounds (mitochondria)ATP is produced by the joining of ADP molecules
with inorganic phosphates C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP Energy
Lipids contain the MOST energy/gram, but our bodies do not readily break down these molecules
Carbohydrates contain the next highest amount of energy/gram and our bodies can readily break them down

Chapter 6: How Cells Harvest Chemical
EnergyStep 1: Glycolysis (anaerobic)
A glucose molecule (C6H12O6) is broken down to create 2 molecules of Pyruvic Acid
Step 2: Kreb’s Cycle (aerobic)Pyruvic Acid is broken down to form CO2 waste
Step 3: Electron Transport (aerobic)High energy electrons are passed along a chain of
electron acceptors to produce a charge gradientChemiosmosis
The movement of protons through ATP Synthase powers the joining of ADP and P to make ATP

TranslationWhat? “Reading” of the mRNA to create a
polypeptideWhen? Following transcriptionWhere? On/In the ribosomeWhy? To create proteins that express genesHow?
mRNA attached to ribosome ribosome “reads” codons (3-nucleotide segments) tRNA transfers individual amino acids to ribosome ribosome joins amino acids until a STOP codon is
reached and the chain is released

Chapter 10: Molecular Biology of the Gene
DNA FingerprintingRestriction enzymes are used to break DNA
into specific segmentsTreated DNA is placed in a chamber with a
positive & negative endElectrophoresis is used to separate the DNA
fragmentsThe banding patterns created are compared to
determine DNA matches & paternity

Ecology & the Environment
Goals of Conservation Biology:enforce environmental lawsprotect habitats
protects not only habitats, but also interactions between many different species
the rainforest has been particularly valuable in discovering new species that provide ingredients for new medications, food, and other goods
manage natural resourcesusing alternative energy, decreasing reliance on
coal, and driving more efficient autos are sustainable practices that reduce acid precipitation

Ecology & the Environment
Integrated Pest Managementusing a variety of approaches including biological
control, pesticides when necessary and monitoring of pest populations
Problems Related to Pesticidesbiological magnificationpesticide resistancegood bugs can be killed along with pests
Introduced Speciesoften become pests because they have no natural
predators to keep their population in check
