• It will lose water through osmosis.

• It will break down the ribosomes in the cell.

• It will be unable to photosynthesize.

What process best explains how a nerve cell and a muscle cell can both develop from the same fertilized egg?

• differentiation

• excretion

• metabolism

• homeostasis

• synthesis

Before mitosis begins, which happens before the nucleus starts dividing?

• The cytoplasm separates.

• The DNA replicates.

• The sister chromatids separate.

• The homologous chromosomes cross over.

What is the complementary DNA strand?

• ACG GAT CTA TAG

• TCG GTA CAT ATG

• TGC CTA GAT ATC

• UCG CUA CAU AUG

Which statement best describes the relationship that exists among proteins, DNA, and cells?

• Proteins combine to produce cells, which produce DNA.

• Proteins are made up of DNA, which determines the cells that are produced.

• DNA is made up of proteins, which tell a cell how to function.

• Cells contain DNA, which controls the production of proteins.

Why is meiosis important for sexual reproduction?

• It allows the zygote formed from fertilization to have triple the chromosome number of the organism.

• It allows gametes to have twice the original number of chromosomes of the organism.

• It allows gametes to have half the original number of chromosomes of the organism.

• It allows the zygote formed from fertilization to have half the original number of chromosomes of the organism.

Which process produces the most variation within a species?

• asexual reproduction

• sexual reproduction

• mitosis

• cloning
