Guide with Complete Solutions

prokaryote - Answer✔️✔️-a single celled organism that has neither a distinct
nucleus with a membrane or other specialized organelles. prokaryotes
include bacteria and cyanobacteria

eukaryotes - Answer✔️✔️-an organism consisting of a cell or cells in which
the genetic material is DNA in the form of chromosomes contained within
a distinct nucleus. Eukaryotes include all living organisms except
eubacteria and archaebacteria

archaebacteria - Answer✔️✔️-microorganisms that are similar to bacteria in
size and simplicity of structure, but radically different in molecular
organization. now believed to constitute an ancient intermediate group
between the bacteria and eukaryotes

eubacteria - Answer✔️✔️-a bacterium of a large group typically having
simple cells with rigid cell walls, and often flagella for movement. the
group comprises of the "true" bacteria and cyanobacteria, as distinct from
archaebacteria. found mainly in intestines of vertebrates and in soil.

Mycoplasms - Answer✔️✔️-any group of small parasitic bacteria that lack
cell walls and sometimes cause disease

hierarchy - Answer✔️✔️-any system of persons or things ranked one above

non-science: speculation

evolution - Answer✔️✔️-the change in genetic composition of a population
over time

earth and solar system originated... - Answer✔️✔️-~4.6 b.y.a.

early earth conditions (atmosphere and water temp, presence of organisms)
- Answer✔️✔️-atmosphere: water vapour, volcanic gases, methane, CO2,
H2S, N2

water temp: very hot - 40-60˚C

Lab experts produced organic molecules that eventually formed
reproducing molecules in these types of conditions... therefore we
speculate that organic molecules formed, eventually forming reproducing
molecules

fossils - Answer✔️✔️--evidence of past life

-most in sedimentary rock

-older fossils are in older rock layers

-position says one is older than other

dating fossils - radiometric dating - Answer✔️✔️-based on decay time for
radioactive isotopes

origin of earth - clock analogy - Answer✔️✔️-1. origin of earth and solar
system ~4.6 b.y.a
