1. Develop a timeline in which you predict 10 of the most important advances that may occur in science during the next century.
Don't forget to add dates to your timeline! 2. Give an example of a living organism and how this organism meets at least six characteristics of life. You must be very specific for your organism in your descriptions to demonstrate your understanding of the characteristics of life. For example, you cannot just say "a dog obtains energy by eating." You need to explain what kinds of food a dog eats, what type of consumer it is, etc.
3. The four main groups of macromolecules are important to our bodies for various reasons. Explain the functions of each of these groups of compounds in your body.
4. There have been major developmental milestones in Earth’s history as well as mass extinction events. Do a little research on an organism that has gone extinct because of human impact. Answer the following questions:
What is the organism?
Where was it found?
What caused it to become extinct?
The animal cells get the organic compounds by eating plants. The only form of energy a cell can use is a molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Chemical energy is stored in the bonds that hold the molecule together.
Proteins are dynamic molecules that are capable of INTRINSIC motion that can have important functional relevance. The existence of this type of motion has suggested that enzymes are capable - even in the absence of substrate - of many of the same movements that can be detected during their catalytic cycle
