The response represented in the illustration would most likely be caused by
a reduced supply of oxygen
long periods of rainfall
high concentrations of glucose
Little available water
Which of the following vascular tissues is responsible for moving water from the roots to the rest of the plant?

Phloem
The diagram shows the reproductive system of a plant.
Which of the following best describes the interaction that occurs between a plant’s reproductive parts during self-fertilization?
Pollen is released from the anther and is transferred to the stigma. A pollen tube forms and grows through the style. The pollen tube reaches the filament, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.
Pollen moves from the ovule up through the style and is released from the stigma. The pollen is transferred to the anther, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.
Pollen is released from the anther and is transferred to the stigma. A pollen tube forms and grows through the style. The pollen tube reaches an ovule within the ovary, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.
Pollen is released from the stigma and is transferred to the anther. A pollen tube grows down from the anther through the filament and fuses with the ovule, where the sperm fertilizes the egg.
Which of the following tropisms describes the response a plant may have to physical contact?
geotropism
phototropism
thigmotropism
hydrotropism
Which of the following events could severely decrease the number of species that exist in an ecosystem?
A flash flood
A large volcanic eruption
A small tornado
A migration of locusts
Which of the following species is considered to be the main pioneer species during primary succession?
Ferns
Lichens
Grasses
Perennials
Which of the following relationships is considered commensalism?
Barnacles (small crustaceans) adhere to the skin of a whale in order to be deposited in a new location that is abundant in resources. The whale does not appear to be affected.
Fleas attach to the skin of warm-blooded animals, feed on their blood, and make the animals itch.
Fungal mycorrhizae live on plant roots and increase the plant's ability to absorb nutrients. The mycorrhizae are provided with carbohydrates from the plant.
Bees pollinate flowers while they obtain nectar.
A type of bird in Africa eats blood-sucking insects off large mammals. Which word BEST describes the relationship between the bird and the mammals?
Mutualism
Commensalism
Predation
Parasitism

Kit fox
Golden eagle
Grasshopper
Plants
According to the 10% rule, only 10% of the total energy is transferred to the next trophic level in an energy pyramid. Most the energy is lost as --
Calories
Food Sources
Nutrients in the soil
Heat
Which of the following lists only organisms that are secondary consumers in this food
web?
Grasshopper, squirrel, golden eagle.
Golden eagle, scorpion, grasshopper
Scorpion, golden eagle, fox kit
Plants, scorpions, golden eagle
Greenhouse gases such as methane and carbon dioxide are causing an increase in temperature around the Earth. This phenomenon is known as global warming. Which of the following effects could be caused due to global warming?
a rise in sea level, changing the coasts where birds and fish live
shifting temperatures and rainfall, changing conditions for growing food
Loss of species diversity
All of the above
This kingdom includes unicellular organisms with cell walls that lack peptidoglycan, they reproduce quickly by binary fission (asexual), and live in extreme environments.
Archaebacteria
Fungi
Eubacteria
Protists
Binomial Nomenclature takes which two levels of classification (taxons) to name a species?
Genus and Kingdom
Phylum and Class
Family and class
Genus and species
What are the parts of a nucleotide?
phosphate, sugar, base
A, T, G, C
Nucleic Acids
two base pairs connected
Monomers combine to form ________ .
polymers
more monomers
isomers
mesomers
What 2 systems: Absorb and deliver the digested nutrients to the cells
Digestive and muscular
Muscular and lymphatic
Digestive and circulatory
Nervous and skeletal
Homeostasis
allows for a wildly fluctuating internal environment
is impossible in vertebrates
is the maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment and often incorporates a form of feedback regulation
is the maintenance of a relatively unstable external environment
Makes chemical messages called hormones that regulate conditions inside the body.
circulatory system
respiratory system
endocrine system
muscular system
Which 2 systems are interacting when the skin serves as a protective barrier against pathogens? (Choose 2 answers)
Immune System
Integumentary System
Muscular System
Skeletal System
Circulatory System
Which trait MOST likely helps an animal survive in a very cold environment?
Long ears
Sharp claws
Fat and thick fur
Large eyes
Giraffes are organisms that are known for their long neck. The reasoning behind having a long neck is due to the high-growing vegetation. If the environment changed and now the vegetation started growing closer to the ground then you would see -
The presence of food on shorter plants would lead to a relaxation of giraffe necks.
The long-necked giraffes would breed with a short-necked species.
Giraffes with a genetic mutation for short necks would survive and reproduce.
Giraffes would learn to bend their necks while feeding, causing a shortening of neck muscles.
There are some flies that can mimic the the body coloring and shape of a wasp as seen in pictures C and D. This adaptation allows flies to --
be able to pollinate the same flowers as wasps.
colonize wasp nests without being detected.
Be mistaken for wasps and avoided by predators.
interbreed with wasps and increase species diversity.
Which of the following characteristics would allow a scientist to know that two animals belong to the same species?
Both live in the same habitat
Both can produce offspring together
Both have similar feeding behaviors
Both have similar diets
True or False: Mutations can lead to adaptations through natural selection if that adaptation provides the organism with an advantage. Eventually the population will inherit this trait.
True
False
The table shows the classifications of different organisms
Based on the table, what is the MOST specific level of classification in which both Panthera Onca and Panthera pardus are different?
