Life Processes, and the Scientific Method
This is not designed to replace
your class notes and/or chapter outlines!!
although it will certainly help
Lab Safety - Do's and don'ts
Life Processes
The 9 life processes all living things carry out:
-Nutrition
-Growth
-Cellular respiration --> IT'S NOT JUST BREATHING!
-Synthesis and Assimilation
-Regulation aka "respond to stimulus"
-Transport
-Metabolism
-Reproduction --> why is reproduction not essential to the individual?
Homeostasis and what happens when an organism fails to maintain homeostasis
Scientific Method
-know the steps
-hypothesis
-designing experimental procedures - sample size/repitition
-graphing data -->line vs. bar, axes, titling, etc.,
-control group and variables -->experimental/independant and dependant
Microscopes
-different types of microscopes = simple, compound, dissecting, electron
(scanning and transmission)
-all parts and functions of the compound light microscope
-microscope technique = image flip, when to use coarse adj, measuring with the
microscope, etc.
-resolution, magnification, depth of field, field of view
-estimating specimen size using field of view
Other tools and techniques
-all tools and techniques from the tools lab conclusion questions
(indicators, chromatography, dissecting instruments, etc.)
-converting millimeters to micrometers
