Final Jeopardy
What is the name of the man who invented the smallpox
vaccine?
2
Edward Jenner
3
4
What was the first virus proven to actually exist?
5
Tobacco Mosaic Virus
6
Slow-acting, virtually indestructible infectious proteins that cause brain
diseases in mammals
7
Prions
8
What are the serotypes of the bird flu, swine flu and
seasonal flu?
9
Bird Flu – H5N1Swine Flu – H1N1
Seasonal Flu – H3N2
10
Fill in the following table contrasting genetic shift and genetic drift
Genetic Drift Genetic Shift
Speed
Mechanism
Result
11Genetic Drift Genetic Shift
Speed About a year Days
Mechanism Random gene mutates causing the H-antigen to change slightly
Inside a pig, genomes of multiple flu serotypes are shuffled and combined into a new serotype
Result New strain of the seasonal flu. This is why you need a flu shot each year
New serotype of flu with unique H & N antigens. May cause massive casualties
12
Which anatomical term refers to the belly side of
an organism?
13
Ventral
14
What is the name of the person who developed the taxonomic system used by
scientists today?
15
Carolus Linnaeus
16
Which Kingdom includes members that are multicellular and have cell walls
made of chitin?
17
Fungi
Which kingdom of life contains organisms that are prokaryotic, yet possess eukaryotic DNA &
carry out many eukaryotic metabolic processes
18
19
Archaea
What are the seven levels of taxonomic
organization in order from the most general to most specific level?
20
21KingdomPhylumClassOrderFamilyGenusSpecies
22
What are the relative percentages of nitrogen
and oxygen in our atmosphere?
23

24What were the primary components of earth’s atmosphere 4.6 billion
years ago at the dawn of the earth?
25
Hydrogen & Methane
26
On average, how often does the earth’s magnetic field reverse its polarity? How
do we know?
27

A hot & dry biome that is located around the
Mediterranean sea and in California characterized by
plants with thick, waxy leaves.
37
Chaparral
38
Biome located deep in the ocean where the ultimate
source of energy is not the sun, but rather heat and
chemicals from underwater volcanoes
39
Hydrothermal Vents
40High elevation
grasslands in central Asia and the US high plains with the least
amount of rainfall of any grassland.
