Which statement is true regarding the differences between the endocrine system and the nervous system?
The nervous system sends chemical signals; the endocrine system sends electrical signals
The nervous system uses the blood; the endocrine system uses nerves
The endocrine system sends messages through hormones in the blood; the nervous systems sends electrical messages through the nerves
The nervous system is much slower than the endocrine system

Which of the following represents the correct order in which these organisms would appear during primary succession?
Lichens > Shrubs > Trees > Grass
Grass > Shrubs > Trees > Lichens
Lichens > Grass > Shrubs > Trees
Lichens > Trees > Shrubs > Grass

Some organisms have genes that improve their ability to survive and reproduce. If the genes also help their offspring survive and reproduce, then which of the following will most likely increase?
The frequency of genes in one individual
The frequency of genes in the population
The number of genes in one chromosome
The number of genes in a species
A harmless scarlet king snake and a venomous eastern coral snake have similar band patterns, as shown below. For the scarlet king snake, the adaptation of having a banding pattern like the eastern coral snake’s is known as mimicry. The outcome of this adaptation in the scarlet king snake is to--
Make it easier for the king snake to attract prey
Make it easier for the king snake to interbreed with another snake
Allow the king snake to blend in with its environment
Protect the king snake from predators
At an early stage of embryonic development (approximately 4-5 weeks), all vertebrates have a structure called a pharyngeal pouch. This structure eventually develops into gills in fish and forms structures in the ear, jaw, and neck, in other vertebrates. The similarity in embryological stages leads us to conclude that these organisms –
Are unrelated
Are genetically identical
Share a common ancestor
Are found in the same genus
Genetic variation can aid in the survival of species when the environment changes. Which of the following is the best example of an organism with a genetic variation that could improve survival chances over time?
An ant that is resistant to pesticide
A wasp that is infected with parasites
A cactus that has no spines
A mouse that has kidney disease
Turgor pressure is the pressure of a plant cells contents against the cell wall, giving it a rigid structure.
Which plant cell organelle interaction determines turgor pressure?
The number of mitochondria in the cell
The thickness of the cytoplasm within the cell
The amount of water in the vacuole
The number of chloroplasts within the cell
Which of the following is NOT a function of the flower?
