Question 1

The following was a question on your test. Read over it and complete the next few slides.

Banana trees are tropical plants that typically grow in areas with high concentrations of water. The banana tree undergoes the process of photosynthesis to store sugar in a banana fruit. Overtime, the plant starts to release an enzyme that breaks down the stored sugar to release a simple sugar that makes a ripe banana sweeter. Ripe bananas are often dark yellow or brown in color, are softer in texture, and are crescent shaped. Based off of this, what part of the DNA gives the plant the instructions to produce the enzyme or to give the fruit its specific traits?

Multiple Choice

What is the monomer of DNA?

• Monosaccharide

• Nucleotide

• Fatty Acid

• Amino Acid

Multiple Select

What are the three parts of a nucleotide?

• Deoxyribose Sugar

• Lipid

• Phosphate

• Protein

• Nitrogen Base (A,T,C,G)

Multiple Choice

What is the most important part of the nucleotide, that codes for traits?

• Phosphate

• Nitrogen Base

• Deoxyribose Sugar

Multiple Choice

Based on the answers to the previous 3 questions, which statement best answers the following question. "Based off of this, what part of the DNA gives the plant the instructions to produce the enzyme or to give the fruit its specific traits?"

• The order of the nitrogen bases gives the plants the instructions.

• The Phosphate group provides the information.

• The deoxyribose sugar give the plant the information.

Question 2

The following was a question on your test. Read over it and complete the next few slides.

Look at the picture below showing two different DNA sequences for fur color from two different cats.





What impact would the difference in the DNA cause for the cats? Explain your reasoning. 

Multiple Choice

What does the sequence of bases determine?

• Your traits

• Glucose

• Cellular Respiration

• Photosynthesis

Multiple Choice

Based on the previous question. Look at the picture below showing two different DNA sequences for fur color from two different cats. What impact would the difference in the DNA cause for the cats? Explain your reasoning. 

• The similarities in the order of bases between cat A and cat B could impact the fur color of the cat. Because the bases are in the same order, so it codes for the same trait.

• The differences will have no affect on the trait being coded.

• The difference in the order of bases between cat A and cat B could impact the fur color of the cat. Because the bases are not in the same order, so it codes for a different trait.

• Ribonucleic Acid

• Nucleotides

• Monomer

Multiple Select

What are the three parts of a nucleotide?

• Phosphate

• Deoxyribose Sugar

• Nitrogen Base

• Protein

• Lipid

Multiple Choice

What is NOT a component of a DNA molecule?

• Phosphate

• Ribose

• Nitrogenous bases

Question 5

​The following was a question on your test. Read over it and complete the next few slides.

Fruits grown in hot climates are usually less sweet than those grown in cooler temperatures.  The high temperatures increase the rate of respiration in the plants, thus reducing the sugar content in some fruits.
Why does increased respiration in the leaves and stems reduce the sugar content in the fruits of a plant?

Multiple Select

What are the products of photosynthesis? Select 2

• Glucose

• Water

• Oxygen

• Carbon Dioxide

Multiple Select

What are the reactants needed for cellular respiration?

• ATP

• Glucose

• Water

• Oxygen

Multiple Choice

What is glucose?

• A atom

• A protein

• A sugar

• A virus

Multiple Choice

Why does increased respiration in the leaves and stems reduce the sugar content in the fruits of a plant?

• Sugars produced in the leaves are used as an energy source instead of being stored in fruits.

• Chloroplasts move from the fruits to the leaves and stems to provide energy for respiration.

  
  

• Sugars are moved from the fruits to the roots for storage.

• The flow of nutrients shifts from the phloem to the xylem, moving nutrients away from the fruits.

Question 6

The following was a question on your test. Read over it and complete the next few slides.

A researcher measures the amount of ATP produced per glucose molecule under two conditions: with oxygen (Condition A) and without oxygen (Condition B). The data shows:


Based on the data, which cellular process corresponds to Condition A and explains the higher ATP production?

Multiple Choice

What process makes ATP?

• Photosynthesis

• Cellular respiration

• Viral replication

• none of the above

Multiple Select

What are the reactants needed for cellular respiration?

• ATP

• Glucose

• Water

• Oxygen

Multiple Choice

Based on the data, which cellular process corresponds to Condition A and explains the higher ATP production?

• Protein synthesis, which uses ATP but doesn’t produce much

• Producing ATP through glycolysis alone without oxygen

• Aerobic cellular respiration, which uses oxygen to fully break down glucose

• Photosynthesis, where light energy is converted into chemical energy

Question 7

The following was a question on your test. Read over it and complete the next few slides.

• Carbon Dioxide

• Oxygen

• Glucose

Multiple Choice

Based off the previous questions, which of these statements best explains the process of energy conversion that takes place in the mitochondria?

• The energy in the bonds of glucose molecules is transferred to the phosphate bonds in ATP

• Oxygen molecules release energy in the form of heat combustion reactions

• Energy is required for carbon dioxide molecules to form a six-carbon sugar molecules

• Water molecules and radiant energy are necessary for anaerobic respiration to take place

Question 8

The following was a question on your test. Read over it and complete the next few slides.

Elodea are an aquatic plant. If the amount of carbon dioxide in the water around them decreased, what would most likely happen to their ability to make glucose?

• DNA Synthesis

Multiple Select

What are the reactants of photosynthesis? Select 3

• Glucose

• Carbon Dioxide

Multiple Choice

If the amount of carbon dioxide in the water around them decreased, what would most likely happen to their ability to make glucose?

• They would make the same amount of glucose because oxygen is still available.

• They would make the same amount of glucose because oxygen is still available.

• They would make more glucose because water could replace carbon dioxide.

• They would make less glucose because one of the needed reactants is missing.
