- Q1For a human zygote to become an embryo, it must undergomeiotic divisionsrecombinationfertilizationmitotic divisions30s
- Q2A cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of a corn plant. Based on this observation, it can be inferred that, when compared to the cell in the stem, the cell in the leafsynthesizes more sugaruses less carbon dioxideproduces fewer proteinshas a higher chromosome count30s
- Q3When the human body is responding to stress, the hormone adrenaline is released. A short time later, the body returns to normal. This is an example of how a humanmaintains dynamic equilibriumdevelops genetic variation in body cellsmaintains cellular organizationreacts to an antibody30s
- Q4A fully functioning enzyme molecule is arranged in a complex three-dimensional shape. This shape determines thespecific type of molecule it interacts with during a reactiontemperature of the products of the reaction it regulatesrate at which the enzyme breaks down during a reaction it regulatespH of all body systems30s
- Q5Like humans, animals including dogs and cats get goose bumps. On a cold day, these goose bumps cause their coats to expand creating a layer of insulation. If the animal is scared, the coat will also expand making the animal look larger to predators. These responses serve as examples oflearned behaviorsreproductive and feeding successdetection and response to stimuliallergic reactions30s
- Q6Survival of at least a few members of a population after a major environmental change is most dependent onthe population having an individual that is adapted to great changes in the temperature in its environmentno variations in the color of the fur, skin, or feathers of the individuals in the populationthe population having an individual that is adapted to the original environmentvariations in many different traits in many individuals in the population30s
- Q7A characteristic common to both diffusion and active transport is thatATP is neededthe movement of molecules occursoxygen is moved across a membraneenzymes are required30s
- Q8The theory of evolution states thatthe environment of Earth is constant over timedifferent animal species always interbreed to form new and different speciesspecies that are extinct have no biological relationship to living speciesspecies change over time, sometimes developing into new species30s
- Q9Which statement best describes how a new human trait develops and can be passed on to future generations?During meiosis, a new combination of DNA subunits is formed.A mutation in a stomach cell results in the inability of a woman to produce a certain digestive enzyme.A mother consumes alcohol during pregnancy, causing the fetus to have a low birth weight.During mitosis, DNA does not divide correctly and the cells die.30s
- Q10Female hammerhead sharks sometimes produce offspring by a type of asexual reproduction. These offspringare considered to be a different species from the male parenthave cells that contain DNA found only in the female sharkare a result of the uniting of a male and a female gametehave cells that contain genetic information from both parents30s
