Factors that limit population size (disease, war, famine, etc.) - correct answer Population growth is checked by famine, disease, and cultural factors (e.g., late marriage). Regulate population through cultural taboos, abstinence and infanticide Carrying capacity - correct answer - the number of organisms of a given species that can be sustained indefinitely in a given area. - Physical carrying capacity = "packing density, limited only by space and resources" - Cultural carrying...

Genetic Diversity - correct answer measures variety of different versions of same genes within a species Species Diversity - correct answer measures number of different kinds of organisms within a community Ecological Diversity - correct answer measures richness and complexity of a community Fragmentation/Cloning - correct answer causes less genetic diversity within an ecosystem Species Richness - correct answer total number of species in a community Species Evenness - ...

What is a blank? - correct answer Has everything except what you are measuring It acts as a zero value and an accurate difference. What does Bradford reagent bind to? What colors does it change when bound or unbound? How can you visually tell the amount of proteins in a test tube? - correct answer It is usually brown in color, but when it binds to proteins it turns blue. The deeper/darker the blue color is, the more proteins there are. Why is R2 important? What is a good R2 value? ...

Which of the following statements accurately describes homeostasis? - correct answer The body has the ability to detect change, activate mechanisms that oppose it, and maintain relatively stable internal conditions. Which of the following describes or represents a property exclusive to all "living" things? - correct answer They take in molecules from the environment and chemically change them into molecules that form their own structures.

Microevolution - correct answer change in gene frequency in a population Macroevolution - correct answer evolution builds overtime; looked at from outside the species level Meiosis - correct answer cell division in which alleles are spread apart; produces gametes, four haploid cells Mitosis - correct answer "basic" eukaryotic division; cell division that makes identical copies; duplicated DNA is split Binary Fission - correct answer happens in prokaryotes; divides into tw...

The Hydrologic Cycle (water cycle) Three principal factors control global water deficits and surpluses: - correct answer Global atmospheric circulation (coriolis effect) Proximity to water sources Topography Role of oceans as a water source - correct answer 97% of water is in the ocean Where water is found: - correct answer Glaciers Groundwater/aquifers Infiltration/percolation - correct answer process of water moving through the soil and into fractures and permeable rocks Zo...
