Exploring Creation with Biology (Apologia 2nd Editon) Module #1

I know I don't like it when people just give me just a little taste of the answers, so I am giving you the FULL answers. By the way, you have to look up your own vocabulary!

  1. 2. What are the four criteria for life?
a) All life forms reproduce. b) All life forms can sense changes in their surroundings and respond to those changes. c) All life forms contain deoxyribonucleic acid. (DNA) d) All life forms have a method by which they extract energy from the surrounds and convert it into energy that sustains them
  1. 3. An organism is classified as a carnivore. Is it a heterotroph or an autotroph? Is it a producer, consumer, or decomposer?
  1. Heterotrophs, consumer.
  1. 4. An organism has receptors on tentacles that come out of its head. If those tentacles were cut off in an accident, what life function would be most hampered?
  1. He wouldn’t be able to sense changes in its surroundings and respond to them, or it would be very hard to.
  1. 5. A parent and two offspring are studied. Although there are many similarities between the parent and the offspring, there are also some differences. Do these organisms reproduce sexually or asexually?
  1. Sexually
  1. 6. What is wrong with the following statement? “Science has proven that energy must always be conserved”
  1. Science cannot prove anything.
  1. 7. Briefly explain the scientific method
  1. Make observations, and form a hypothesis to explain your observations. Collect data that test the hypothesis, then if successful, the hypothesis becomes a theory. Continue to test the theory with generations of data, then if the data is consistent with the theory, they theory becomes law.
  1. 8. Why does the story of spontaneous generation illustrate the limitations of science?
  1. Because spontaneous generation showed of how almost 2000 years without the scientific method created a law that was very wrong.
  1. 9. Where does the wise person place his or her faith: science of the Bible?
Bible.
  1. 10. Why is the theory of abiogenesis just another example of the idea of spontaneous generation?
  1. Because it was said that life could spontaneously start from a chemical reaction, and a former law said that life could arise from non-life
11. Name the classification groups in our hierarchical classification scheme in order
  1. Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
  1. 12. An organism is multicellular consumer made of eukaryotic cells. To what kingdom does it belong?
  1. Animalia
  1. 13. If were using the three-domain system of classification, in which domain would the organism in question #12 belong?
  1. Eukarya
  1. 14. An organism is a single-celled consumer made of prokaryotic cells. To what kingdom does it belong?
  1. Monera
15. If we were using the three-domain system of classification, could you determine the domain of the organism, in question #14? If so, give the domain. If not, give possible domains in which it could be placed
  1. It is probably in Archaea or Bacteria.
16. Use the biological key in the appendix to classify the organisms pictured below. - a.) OWL b.) FLY
