1.

Animals, like bears, hedgehogs, and frogs, hibernate during the cold winter months to conserve energy. Hibernation allows them to survive for long periods of time without needing to eat.

a)

Carbohydrates

b)

Lipids

c)

Proteins

d)

Nucleic Acids

Both carbohydrates and lipids provide long-term energy storage.

6.

Students placed yeast cells into a test tube. They added sugar solution to the test tube and placed a rubber stopper on the end. They left the test tube at room temperature to examine after reading about yeast.

What most likely occurred in the test tube while the students were reading?

a)

Yeast produced carbon dioxide due to cellular respiration.

b)

Yeast produced carbon dioxide due to photosynthesis.

c)

Yeast produced oxygen due to cellular respiration.

Water

8.

Dehydration synthesis is the process of chemical reactions that combine smaller molecules into larger molecules. What is an example of dehydration synthesis in cell respiration? 

a)

b)

The formation of water from the reaction of oxygen and sugar

c)

The formation of oxygen from the reaction of carbon dioxide and water 

d)

The formation of ATP from the reaction of ADP and phosphate 

9.

What occurs inside of a cell while it is performing the process of photosynthesis? 

a)

Sugar is broken  down to generate adenosine  triphosphate (ATP)molecules that are used for energy. 

b)

The negative  charge inside of  the cell is used to  increase the  concentration chemicals inside of the cell.

c)

Light reactive  chemicals combine  carbon dioxide (CO2) and water  to form glucose molecules  that are stored as food. 

d)
