In meiosis, the homologous chromosomes tend to switch pieces with each other (creating more genetic diversity!). This is called:
independent assortment
crossing over
sex-linked genes
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Bacteria go through asexual reproduction meaning...
They go through mitosis to create identical copies of themselves.
They go through meiosis to create haploid (1/2) cells of themselves.
They go through several bacterial partners before they meet their "A" partner.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Planaria have lots of stem cells. These cells are get turned on (via chemicals) and...
turn the stem cell from a heterozygous cell to a homozygous recessive cell.
turn the stem cell from a sex cell into a body cell.
turn the stem cell from a undifferentiated cell to a specialized cell.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
What does gel electrophoresis compare?
DNA fragments
proteins
blood types
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
In the process of differentiation, what must happen to the genes?
Genes are not a part of stem cells.
Genes are either turned on or off depending on what cell the body needs to make.
Genes are inherited so when stem cell specializes, it asks a parent for permission.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Variability, heritability, and reproductive advantage are all needed in...
meiosis
homeostasis
natural selection
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
What type of selection occurs when humans selectively breed for favorable traits in agriculture?
sexual selection
natural selection
artificial selection
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
What type of selection occurs when an organism shows off their pretty colors to a possible mate?
sexual selection
natural selection
artificial selection
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
In a population of fish, there are 10% green and 90% blue scale colors. The pond recently turned green due to increased algae. Which of the following describe the reproductive advantage?
The green fish will probably survive (camouflage) and reproduce thus passing on the green trait.
The blue fish will probably survive (camouflage) and reproduce thus passing on the blue trait.
The green fish will increase in numbers.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Having green scales allows the fish to survive and thus reproduce more than the blue fish. Which is a true statement?
Green fish have a higher fitness.
Green fish created an adaptation.
Green fish have a harmful mutation.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Which of the following can evolve?

Which of the following can be used as evidence for evolution?
comparing anatomy
DNA
fossils
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Are whales mammals or fish?
Fish: both whales and fish live in the ocean meaning they are both fish.
Mammal: evidence from anatomy and DNA show whales have a more recent common ancestor will mammals.
Mammal: whales have to be mammals because I really don't like fish.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Which are more related: the primates and the birds or the primates and the rodents?
Primates and rodents have a more recent common ancestor.
Primates and birds have a more recent common ancestor.
Primates are equally related to birds and rodents.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.

No. This characteristic occurred later in time.
Maybe. It's not clear from the cladogram.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
What is main difference between directional and disruptive selection?
Directional and disruptive both favor several phenotypes.
Directional favors just one phenotype while disruptive favors two extremes.

two different species
recent common ancestors
stabilizing selection

Can antibiotics be used to fight coronavirus?
Maybe. Antibiotics can be dangerous because they can create super bacteria.
Yes. The COVID-19 virus is alive and antibiotics kill living things.
No. Antibiotics are used to fight bacterial infections not viral infections.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
Antibiotic resistance in bacteria is an example of natural selection because
There is variation in the population, heritability in the trait, and a reproductive advantage to those who have that trait.
There are directional, stabilizing, and disruptive selection patterns in the bacterial populations.
There are fossil, DNA, and embryology evidence supporting the evolution of bacteria.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
How is human skin color an example of an evolutionary adaptation?
Someone with dark skin will survive in high UV and thus reproduce.
Different skin colors provide an advantage in different environments due to variation in UV radiation.
Human skin color is not an example of an adaptation.
I don't know. I'll highlight it on my study guide to review later.
In Darwin's theory of Natural Selection, individuals who survive are the ones best adapted for their environment. They survive because...
they create adaptations in their lifetimes.
they inherited adaptations that maximize their fitness.
there is a lack of competition in the area.
