<p>^^^^I believe 1 is B.
And how on earth are viruses found in domain Bacteria?</p>
<p>Does anyone know what is a good range (as in the number of questions correct for MC) to score a 4 or a 5?</p>
<p>I took my first practice test in school - I got 81 questions correct out of 100, which surprised me, because I wasn’t expecting anything above 50% lol. Perhaps, I got lucky with the test or with some of my guesses (b/c she made us answer every question, so I made a lot of blind guesses).</p>
<p>I’m just a bit worried that I might not be as consistent in the future.</p>
<p>^81% should grant you a 5 as long as you do well on the FRQ’s.</p>
<p>i heard that on ap bio the labs come 25% in multiple choice and 1 free response question, and we didnt reallly study the labs during the class. what is the best way to learn the labs for the ap test??</p>
<p>In the released AP tests, the labs have not come up nearly that much. In fact, I don’t think any of the labs affected my score at all on any of the old exams I have done for practice.</p>
<p>cliff notes said that 1 free response is always on labs. and i need a way to learn the labs!!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>The twelve basic labs are sufficiently discussed in essentially all reputable AP Biology review books.</p>
<p>If the laboratory FRQ provides any tinge of general discomfort, you may want to simply practice the previous exam questions from the AP Central website in order to familiarize yourself with the basic expectations of a quality response.</p>
<p>but do i need to memorize all 12?</p>
<p>^Not necessarily. You’ll be better off if you can grasp the concepts of the labs rather than memorizing them.</p>
<p>Took the test - I found my weaknesses. Surprisingly enough, they were the sections I really didn’t study/care for and just skipped; animal classes and photosynthesis/atp synthesis/ stuff.</p>
<p>1.) A chemical is sprayed on a tomato plant which induces fruit production without pollination. All resulting tomatoes from this plant are seedless. The chemical most likely sprayed on the plant was:</p>
<p>(d) auxin</p>
<p>The answer is (d), auxin. Ethylene is for fruit ripening.</p>
<p>2.) Which of the following is NOT found in the domain Bacteria:</p>
<p>(c) introns in DNA</p>
<p>Viruses ARE in the Bacteria domain.</p>
<p>And you can do the labs virtually here: [PHSchool</a> - The Biology Place](<a href=“Prentice Hall Retirement – PHSchool – PHSchool.com – Savvas”>Prentice Hall Retirement – PHSchool – PHSchool.com – Savvas)</p>
<p>Viruses are NOT in the Bacteria domain. They are not considered living and are not classified into any domain.</p>
<p>Well, they actually are classified into the Domain Bacteria, although only out of basic necessity rather than the actual observation of shared characteristics. Biologists simply do not know of any other grouping in which to place them. But due to their biological significance and pathogenic qualities, they are consigned to the same categorical classification as bacteria, although considering them as such is, of course, improper.</p>
<p>Hey guys, took AP Bio last year and got a 5. I think 20% to 25% of the multiple choice (the last 20 to 25 questions) are lab-based. However, much like with the ACT Science section, you’re given all of the necessary information before answering questions. Consequently, not all of the labs found in the multiple choice are based on labs in the lab book. It can be much easier to answer some of the questions if they do happen to be based on a lab from the lab book.</p>
<p>As for the FRQs, there’s supposed to be a lab-based question every year that features a lab from the book. However, last year, they did completely **random<a href=“albeit%20elementary”>/b</a> lab involving some sort of marine animal and water temperature. I don’t think they’ll do that again this year, but be wary regardless.</p>
<p>The exam isn’t that bad. Most of the questions are pretty generic.</p>
<p>Choose which nervous system is MOST associated with each of the following. Each answer can be used once, more than once, or not at all.</p>
<p>(a) Central nervous system
(b) Autonomic nervous system
(c) Sensory nervous system
(d) Somatic nervous system</p>
<ol>
<li>The brain</li>
<li>Skeletal muscles</li>
<li>Smooth muscles</li>
<li>Increase or decrease in heart rate</li>
<li>Spinal cord</li>
</ol>

<p>6.) You carve your name in a tree 2 meter above the ground. This species of tree grows about 2 meters in height every 4 years. When you come back in 12 years, the height of your name in meters will be:</p>
<p>(a) 2
(b) 4
(c) 6
(d) 8</p>
<p>7.) Which of the following has blood that is the most oxygen-rich?</p>
<p>(a) pulmonary vein
(b) vena carva
(c) right atrium
(d) pulmonary artery</p>
<p>8.) In which type of camouflaging does a nontoxic animal mimic the appearance of a toxic animal? </p>
<p>(a) Mullerian mimicry
(b) cryptic coloration
(c) aposematic coloration
(d) Batesian mimicry</p>

<p>Also, does the AP test on histones, chromatin structure, and the like? The molecular genetics part of Cliff’s doesn’t have anything on it, so I’m wondering if I should spend the time to review it.</p>
<p>Can anybody help me out with what I need to to know about classification/biological diversity for the AP exam?</p>
<p>The Cliff Notes and Barron’s Book have really distinct approaches and I’m confused about what I actually need to know.</p>
<p>xxrunningonempty or Mikoyan - how did you get 6 to be a? Wouldn’t it be d?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I agree with D as well.</p>
