Living Environment Review 1

The analysis of data gathered during a particular experiment is necessary in order to

• (1) formulate a hypothesis for that experiment 
• (2) develop a research plan for the experiment 
• (3) design a control for the experiment 
• (4) draw a valid conclusion for that experiment

• are composed of organ systems
• have the same DNA sequences
• carry out autotrophic nutrition

A student conducted an original, well-designed experiment, carefully following proper scientific procedure. In order for the conclusions to become generally accepted, the experiment must

• (1) contain several experimental variables
• (2) be repeated to verify the reliability of the data
• (3) support the original hypothesis
• (4) be conducted by a scientist

• interdependence
• homeostasis
• synthesis
• recombination

What is the main function of a vacuole in a cell?

• storage
• coordination
• synthesis of molecules
• release of energy

Certain poisons are toxic to organisms because they interfere with the function of enzymes in mitochondria. This results directly in the inability of the cell to

• store information 
• build proteins 
• release energy from nutrients 
• dispose of metabolic wastes

• produce identical offspring 
• maintain internal stability
• synthesize only inorganic matter
