Bio B Final Exam Review

Which cell structure makes proteins using coded instructions that come from the nucleus?

• Ribosomes

• Golgi Apparatus

• Mitochondrion

• Vacuole

Which of the following statements about the nucleus is NOT true?

• The nucleus contains DNA proteins that make RNA copies of DNA.

• The nucleus is the site of protein assembly.

• The nucleus is surrounded by a membrane that lets materials in and out.

• The nucleus stores the coding instructions for constructing the cell’s proteins.

Observing a cell under a microscope, you note that it appears to be a eukaryotic cell. What observation would confirm this conclusion?

• The cell has a cell membrane

• The cell has cytosol

• The cell has membrane-bound organelles

• The cell has genetic material

Which of the following is NOT found in a bacterial cell?

• Chloroplasts

• Cell wall

• Cytosol

• Genetic Material

Which organelles are involved in energy conversion?

• Mitochondria in animal cells and chloroplasts in plant cells

• Mitochondria in plant and animal cells and chloroplasts in plant cells

• Ribosomes in animal cells and chloroplasts in plant cells

• Ribosomes in plant and animal cells and chloroplasts in plant and bacteria cells

What are the reactants in photosynthesis?

• Glucose and water

• Oxygen and glucose

• Sunlight and glucose

• Carbon dioxide and water

Which statement regarding cellular respiration is correct?

• Cellular respiration in plants occurs only during the day.

• Organisms from all kingdoms use cellular respiration.

• Fungi and bacteria only use aerobic cellular respiration.

• Only animals and bacteria use glucose and oxygen in respiration.

What happens as a result of mitosis?

• Four genetically identical daughter cells are produced

• Two genetically unique daughter cells are produced

• Two genetically identical daughter cells are produced

• Four genetically unique daughter cells are produced

In what phase of the cell cycle do the chromosomes align on in the middle of the cell?

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Interphase

• Prophase

In which scenario would meiosis be most desirable in terms of a species' survival?

• A species has to adjust rapidly to a changing environment, requiring genetic variation within the population.

• A species is preyed upon by numerous successful predators, requiring a higher number of offspring for survival.

• A species has little energy to devote to reproduction, requiring a lower energy method of reproduction.

• A species is unable to travel far to find a mate, requiring a way to reproduce without the need for a mate.
