This diagram shows a red blood cell in a beaker that contains a solution with a higher salt concentration than that inside the red blood cell.

What will happen to the red blood cell in this environment?

• The size of the red blood cell will remain constant.

• The red blood cell will swell at first and then shrink.

• The red blood cell will swell from absorbing salt molecules.

• The red blood cell will shrink from losing water molecules.

This diagram represents a closed terrarium exposed to sunlight.

What must happen for the carbon cycle to continue in this terrarium?

• All organisms must continue to exchange gases.

• The snails must double their production of carbon dioxide.

• The plant must produce carbon dioxide at a faster rate.

• The decomposers must begin to produce oxygen.

A student noticed that the freshwater plant, Elodea, produced bubbles when placed in direct light. What could the student most likely conclude?

• Bubbles of carbon dioxide were produced as a result of photosynthesis.

• Bubbles of oxygen were produced as a result of photosynthesis.

• Bubbles of carbon dioxide were produced as a result of cellular respiration.

• Bubbles of oxygen were produced as a result of cellular respiration.

A contractile vacuole helps protists eliminate excess liquid. This is a “pumping" process which reduces pressure inside the cell and prevents the cell from bursting. What is most likely the source of energy for this process?

• DNA

• lipids

• ATP

• ribosomes

How does the body of a runner keep up with the demand for energy when cellular oxygen levels are low?

• through energy production in the mitochondria

• through aerobic respiration in the plasma membrane

• through ATP produced directly from sunlight

• through anaerobic respiration in the cytoplasm

How does the amount of energy resulting from fermentation compare with that of aerobic respiration?

• Aerobic respiration results in less energy.

• Aerobic respiration results in more energy.

• Each process results in equal amounts of energy.

• Each process results in variable amounts of energy.
