I Need Some Help On A Few Questions For An Ap Bio Test. Please Help!?


1. Why was Darwin surprised by the discovery of elephant and hippo-resembling fossils in a riverbed in Argentina?
a. Darwin didn’t know that elephants and hippos could exist in the same habitat together.
b. Darwin had found similar fossils on the Cape Verde Islands.
c. Elephant-like and hippo-like animals no longer lived in Argentina.
d. No fossils had ever been found in Argentina.
Why is it said that the English rabbit and Patagonian hare occupy a similar niche?\
a. Both hares and rabbits live primarily on islands.
b. They are both adapted for a grazing lifestyle.
c. Both hares and rabbits have large ears.
d. They both belong to the same species.
2. A biologist was experimenting with plant cells. She ground up the cells and centrifuged the mixture and then separate the cell fractions, but she forgot to label the different fractions. When she tested fraction A, she found that it took up CO2 and released O2. She concluded that this fraction contained…
a. mitochondria.
b. chloroplasts.
c. lysosome.
d. ribosome.
e. vacuole.
3. All of the following statements about chromosomes are true EXCEPT
a. DNA condenses during mitosis in the life cycle of the cell.
b. A replicated chromosome consists of two chromatids that are identical.
c. An acrocentric chromosome has its centromere on the end of the chromosome.
d. Chromatin consists of DNA with associated proteins.
4. All of the following statements regarding the events of meiosis are correct EXCEPT
a. Synapsis and independent assortment are responsible for variation among the species.
b. Homologous chromosomes are always identical, and always control the same trait.
c. Synapsis refers to the process where chromosomes associate to form homologous pairs.
d. Chromosome pairs assort independently from one another during meiosis.
5. All of the following statements regarding spematogenesis are true EXCEPT
a. Testicles are descended below the body because of the lower temperature requirement for spermatogenesis.
b. The function of the nucleus of the sperm is to deliver a diploid set of genes to the egg cell.
c. In terms of layering, the outermost wall of the seminiferous tubules of the testes is where spermatids are found.
d. In the testes, the male germ cell allows for both mitosis and meiosis.
6. Restriction enzymes are sometimes used in the laboratory to
a. restrict DNA replication.
b. restrict DNA transcription.
c. restrict mRNA translation.
d. cut DNA molecules at specific sites.
e. cut DNA into manageable sizes for manipulation.
7. Select the example of passive transport across a cell membrane:
a. stimulation of a muscle cell.
b. uptake of glucose by microvilli of cells lining the intestine.
c. the movement of insulin across the cell membrane.
d. the movement of carbon dioxide across the cell membrane.
e. the movement of sodium ions across the cell membrane.
Thanks to anyone who will answer these. 🙂 I have most of them narrowed down but I can’t figure em out by any means /:

Would You Read This If It Was On The Market?


There is a secret force run by the government. Only the police, FBI and army know about.
Though it’s no normal secret force. All the agents were born with an extra chromosome,
making them be more, strong, fast and improver their stamina and agility to the max – Though they are nothing like supernaturals.
They protect the world and the artifacts . . . having no limits, they are aloud to kill and torture their criminals and suspects.
Sixteen year old Kyra has been an agent since she was twelve. Being the best in the business, all the criminals are afraid of her, afraid of being tortured by her. One even goes so far to hire a assassin to kill her after what she had done to him. But when Kyra falls for the man who is destined to kill her, she may not survive.
