LONG QUIZ IN EARTH AND LIFE SCIENCE

Test I. IDENTIFICATION:
Direction: Complete the following statements by choosing your answers from the word pool below.

1. It is the ability of the body to maintain a constant internal equilibrium is called _________________________.
2. _________________________ it states that organisms that are best adapted to an environment survive and reproduce
more than others.
3. This type of reproduction does not need two parents to produce an individual is called _________________________.
4. _________________________ are fossils that contain the remains of tiny plants and animals.
5. _________________________ is the process by which food is broken down into simple, soluble compounds in the
digestive tract.
6. _________________________ similar anatomy in different types of animals because of common ancestor.
7. _________________________ each living species has descended, with changes, from other species over time.
8. The main transport system for animals is the _________________________.
9. _________________________ is a process that converts absorbed nutrients into energy needed for repair, growth, and
development of organisms.
10. The atmospheric water vapor condensed into rain and washed minerals into seas is called
_________________________.
11. _________________________ is the branch of biology that deals with the study of living organisms and their
relationships with each other and their environment.
12. _________________________ takes place when the sperm (germinated pollen) unites with the egg (ovule) forming a
fertilized egg called a zygote.
13. This type aquatic plants which are rooted on the waters bottom but do not extend all the way to the surface is called
_________________________.
14. The breaking of body parts into fragments, is always followed by regeneration and regrowth of lost parts. Even if the
animal is broken into many pieces, each piece will grow into a new individual is called
_________________________.
15. Aquatic plants, also called _________________________, grow in water or in soil permanently saturated with water.
