- Q1Which characteristics of DNA helps it function as a set of instructions for making these proteins?the way in which the nucleotides are ordered on the DNAthe three-dimensional structure of the DNAthe hydrogen bonds that hold together the nucleotides on the DNAthe sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA30s
- Q2Which of the following correctly describes how water will move due to the imbalances of solutes in and out of the cell?A= net movement in, B= net movement out, C= no net movementA= no net movement, B= net movement in, C= net movement outA= net movement out, B= no net movement, C= net movement inA= no net movement, B= net movement out, C= net movement in30s
- Q3The mitotic spindle is part of a cell that allows for the movement of sister chromatids to opposite poles of the cell during the later stages of mitosis. Which problem would most likely occur if the mitotic spindle stopped functioning in a cell?Newly produced cells would be twice their normal size.Newly produced cells would contain new chromosomes not found in the parent cells.Newly produced cells would have too few or too many chromosomes.Newly produced cells would fail to form and pinch off from each other.30s
- Q4In pea plants, smooth seeds (S) are dominant to wrinkled seeds (s). A parent pea plant with smooth seeds (SS) is crossed with a parent pea plant with wrinkled seeds (ss). What is the correct phenotypic and genotypic ratio for this cross?Phenotypic= 3:1 Genotypic= 2:1:1Phenotypic= 1:3 Genotypic= 1:2:1Phenotypic= 1:1 Genotypic= 1:0:2Phenotypic= 4:0 Genotypic= 0:4:030s
- Q5Using the mRNA codon chart, what is the most likely effect of this mutation on the resulting protein?A Gly amino acid will replace a Val amino acid and a change in the protein produced will occurA Gln amino acid will be replaced with a Pro amino acid and a change in the protein produced will occur.The same amino acid will be coded for and the protein produced will remain unchanged.An early stop codon will be coded from and the protein produced will be shortened.30s
- Q6A 350-acre area in central Mississippi called Old Cove has mature hardwood trees, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and many plants species. Students wrote 3 descriptions related to the environment. Which of the following correctly matches the description to the ecological level of organization?1= population, 2=organism, 3= community1= population, 2= organism, 3= biome1= biome, 2= community, 3= organism1= community, 2= population, 3= organism30s
- Q7The chart provides information about four organisms that live in a Mississippi pond ecosystem. Which model BEST shows the flow of energy between these organisms in the pond ecosystem?herons --> sunfish --> stoneflies --> algae --> sunlightsunlight --> algae --> herons --> sunfish --> stonefliessunlight --> algae --> stoneflies --> sunfish --> heronherons --> algae --> sunfish --> stoneflies --> sunlight30s
- Q8The coral snake uses venom to help kill prey. Coral snakes have a coloration pattern that includes red, yellow, and black bands that circle its body. Many animals see the color pattern and avoid the snake because they know it is venomous. Some other snake species that are not venomous have similar coloration. As a result, many animals also avoid these snakes, mistaking them for coral snakes. Which type of relationship is shown by these nonvenomous snake species?mimcrycompetitionmutualismparasitism30s
- Q9Which of the following claims, evidence and reasoning correctly explains the cause of Klinefelter Syndrome?Claim= It is the result of a mutation during meiosis. Evidence= There is an increase in the number of nonsex chromosomes in females. Reasoning= Mutations during meiosis affect sex chromosomes.Claim= It is the result of a mutation during mitosis. Evidence= There is an increase in the number of nonsex chromosomes in males. Reasoning= Mutations during mitosis affect nonsex chromosomes.Claim= It is the result of a mutation during mitosis. Evidence= There is an increase in the number of sex chromosomes in females. Reasoning= Mutations during mitosis affect sex chromosomes.Claim= It is the result of a mutation during meiosis. Evidence= There is an increase in the number of sex chromosomes in males. Reasoning= Mutations during meiosis affect sex chromosomes.30s
- Q10Which characteristic of the karyotype helps identify the male shown as having Klinefelter Syndrome?the length of nonsex chromosomesthe total number of sex chromosomesthe length of the sex chromosomesthe total number of nonsex chromosomes30s
- Q11Collagen, lipase and hemoglobin have totally different functions but are classified as proteins. Which of the following characteristics do these proteins have in common?They are composed of amino acids and form by using fatty acids and glycerinThey contain a base, sugar and phosphate group.They contain nitrogen and are made of disaccharidesThey contain nitrogen and are composed of amino acids.30s
- Q12Based on the graph, what temperature range would be considered the optimum temperature for this enzyme?between 18 C and 28 Cbetween 40 C and 50 Cbetween 28 C and 38 Cbetween 5 C and 5 C30s
- Q13Which of the following is not a characteristic of living things?can reproduceexists without taking in energycan release energy for workcan respond to stimuli30s
- Q14Which of the following correct matches the main reactants and products to the diagram shown?A= O2, B= H2O, C= glucose, D= CO2A= CO2, B= O2, C= H2O, D= glucoseA= glucose, B= O2, C= H2O, D= CO2A= H2O, B= O2, C= CO2, D= glucose30s
- Q15The pedigree shows a pattern of inheritance for a disease called cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is a disease that affects glands of the body that produce mucus, including those in the lungs. Which pattern of inheritance is shown in the pedigree for cystic fibrosis?mitochondrialautosomal dominantautosomal recessiveX-linked30s
