1.

What is the ENDOCRINE SYSTEM?

a)

The endocrine system is the system that controls all others and sends messages throughout the body using a long system of nerves.

b)

The endocrine system is the system that uses glands that release hormones to regulate processes such as growth, reproduction, and nutrient use (metabolism) by body cells.

c)

The endocrine system uses the pancreas for hormones.

d)

The endocrine system is the system that transports nutrients and oxygen to the cells.

e)

Both the first and third.

2.

What is natural selection?

a)

Natural selection is the increased survival of a species because of certain traits that allow them to reproduce and survive and higher rates than others.

b)

Natural selection happens only in certain animals because of the fact that bacteria produce asexually and both plants and fungi are all too similar to even compete with one another. We see this in our own backyard (or just outdoors), since many grasses can thrive all at once without competing with one another.

c)

Natural selection is only performed in bacteria because of the limiting factor of producing asexually. Since they are produced asexually, all of them are very different from the parent and can thrive by continually reproducing very fast.

d)

None of the previously mentioned.

e)

All except for the fourth.

3.

True or False: The digestive system has capillaries attached to it to carry nutrients.

a)

True

b)

False

4.

What is an atomic number, atomic mass, and how do you find the number of neutrons in an element.

a)

The atomic number is the amount of neutrons in an element; however, both the atomic mass, and the the number of electrons add up to give you the total amount of subatomic particles in an element, or, more commonly known as the amount of neutrons in a substance

b)

The atomic number tells how many protons and electrons an element has.-- The atomic mass tells the amount you get when you subtract the protons from neutrons.--You cannot find the number of protons.

c)

The atomic number of an element represents how many protons and electrons an element has.--The atomic mass of a number is the number of neutrons and protons an element has/how much the element weighs.--You find the number of neutrons in an element by subtracting the amount of protons from the atomic mass.

d)

All of these are correct!

e)

All of these are incorrect!

5.

What is diffusion, in a cell?

a)

Diffusion is the passage of materials through the cell membrane by moving down the concentration gradients.

b)

Diffusion uses ATP and other types of energies to move across the cell membrane.

c)

This is the passage of air through our lungs, which results in our blood carrying oxygen to the cells.

d)

This is the passage of materials in and out of the cell using a vesicle. AKA - Endocytosis and Exocytosis

6.

True or False: The nucleolus of the cell is the thing that makes ribosomes in a cell?

a)

TRUE

b)

FALSE

7.

What does the ER do?

a)

The ER supplies the cell membrane with what it needs to form.

b)

The ER serves as the transportation system within the cell. It transports things that are within the cell to other parts in the cell.

c)

The ER transports things inside of the cell out of the cell.

d)

The ER is one of the cell's main source of protein and lipids.

8.

What does hypertonic mean?

a)

Hypertonic means the cell has more salt so it gives up water and shrinks.

b)

Hypertonic means the cell is at complete balance.

c)

Hypertonic means the cell has more water than salt so it continues to take in and swell with water.

d)

Hypertonic can mean many things and all these are correct.

e)

No--Just, No.

9.

When something asexually reproduces...

a)

its offspring are all similar to the parent.

b)

its offspring greatly varies from the parent.

c)

its offspring are all still attached to the parent and will always be until they die.

d)

its offspring are all identical to the parent.

e)

None of the Above.

10.

What is the excretory system also called?

a)

Reproductive system

b)

Cartilage system

c)

Defficatory system

d)

Cardiovscular system

11.

a)

What is one behavioral adaption?

a)

Giraffes having long necks to reach the leaves on certain trees.

b)

Birds migrating south during winter

c)

Cactus leaves turning into sharp needles to lower transpiration

d)

Arctic foxes have a white coat of fur that serves as camouflage in their environment.

Where does the process of digesting food start?

a)

The stomach

b)

The esophagus

c)

The mouth

d)

The large intestines

e)

None of the above

14.

If an element is in the same column as another, how are they similar?

a)

They are not similar because they are all different elements.

b)

They have the same amount of valence electrons.
