Biology SAT II POST-EXAM discussion!

Test Preparation
1

<p>Let's start putting the exam together; complements to xindianx for starting it up. Anyway, here goes...</p>

<p>1cuticle - waxy layer on top of plants
2epidermis - outer layer of mammals
3hair - wind flow/heat exchange
4guard cells - control exchange of gases
5transcription - dna to rna
6replication - dna to dna
7translation - trna/mrna to amino acids
8not bony - sharks
9hemophilia - sex linked recessive
10NO ADH - more dilute urine
11testes - have 4 haploid gametes
12when do you have lots of white blood cells - when there is a pathogen/infection ?
13protozoans go to food - taxis
14algae and fungi difference - algae are photosynthetic/fungi heterotropic
15nonvascular - bryophytes
16nuclear pores - so rna can move in and out
17the AaBBCc combinations - 4
18test cross - A_x aa
19releases CO2 - krebs cycle
20glucose to pyruvate - glycolysis
21inverse relationship between heart rate and body size - the only inverse one there
22pupa/larva/adult thing -if there isn't enough MH, the pupae will stay in the same form
23PCR - makes lots of DNA
24exoskeleton - grasshopers
25endoskeleten lightweight - sparrow
26placental - cows
27Chemical I and II quesaton thing on enzymes - Chemical I and enzymes makes ltos of quantity of products
28Chemical II - inhibitor
29Calatase/hydrogen peroxide - more hydrogen peroxide
30simple sugars added together make complex and simple and complex made of some elements
31bag with sucrose/water - water only goes in, impermeable to sucrose (hypotonic-hypertonic)
32picture with the circular circulatory system - fish
33dogs lungs most similar too - when O2 taken in, and CO2 out, on the top of the picture (capillary)
34where the least amount of CO2 is - right after O2 is taken in, right side of picture
35abiotic environment - sunlight, water, soil, minerals, et cetera
36which is list effective in growth of the 3 3 3 3 plots of plants - nitrogen alone
37which is most effective - nitrogen and phosphorus
38why do we need the no nutrients added data - so we can compare between nutriets added
39which graph is bad - the one WITHOUT the no nutrients added colum, which was A
40 tree plots*
41no difference in number of conifers between plot 1 and 2*
42 cedar affected by everything but available nutrients*
4344,45pediegree chart of hemophilia - all the square blacks were xry, all the circle white where xRxr or xRxR, all the circle black where xrxr
48electronmagnetic radiation - microwaves
49waves that plants dont use, violet
50waves that insects and blah can detect and humans cant - infrared
51secondary structure of enzymes - hydrogen bonds
52which one isnt a chromosomal mutation - synapsis (this is when tetrads join together)
52cytocrome c comparisons - amino acid amount
53what does chlorophyll do - absorb photons of light
54what do sexual reproduction species undergo - meiosis
55why is sexual reproduction good - genetic variabiltiy
56difference between prokaryoes and eukaryotes - prokaroyes dont have a nucleus, all they got is a cell wall/membrane, ribosomes, and dna
57all things do not breath through gills and lungs, some breath with simple diffusion
58trophic level biomass - decreases cuz of food energy converted to heat energy
59waters property for transport in trunk of trees - cohesion
60characeteric of all respiratory stuff - moist membrane for gas exchange</p>

<h2>61.Acid Rain-sulfur dioxides</h2>

<h2>After looking at this I already got 10 questions roughly wrong with two omits--yikes. If you have a good curve to post, feel free.</h2>

<p>xindianx, are you positive the question asked for "No ADH?"</p>

2

<p>isn't the test cross A_xaa</p>

3

<p>which two hominids were most closely related? i think i got this one wrong.</p>

4

<p>NeutronFlare, what were the choices?</p>

5

<p>57all things do not breath through gills and lungs, some breath with simple diffusion
which one was that? what was the question?</p>

<p>36which is list effective in growth of the 3 3 3 3 plots of plants - nitrogen alone</p>

<p>it asked for limiting factor, which was phosphorous</p>

6

<p>Just skimming through, I see a couple I don't agree with.</p>

<p>36- most limiting factor in plant growth was phosphorus (the plot with phosphorus alone grew more than the plot with nitrogen alone so phosphorus must help more)</p>

<p>48,49,50- snakes use infrared; insects use UV; highest energy humans see is violet; plants don't absorb green light</p>

<p>Adding on,</p>

<p>62- rat and squirrel most related
63- placenta not used to convey nerve impulses (right?)</p>

7

<p>***...how did u remember all that????</p>

8

<p>also, what was the red aok one? i was pickign between hybrid of red cedar and white oak or animal brought in seeds. i put seeds</p>

9

<p>YES! I got the molecular part right. I knew that wasn't right.</p>

10

<p>I thought for that one, there was 8 possible gametes..</p>

<p>I disagree with the taxis one, though I am not sure..</p>

<p>yeah, the testcross one was with the underscore (_)</p>

11

<p>No it's definately taxis.</p>

12

<p>bananagirl- yeah it's seeds
killaerone- definitely taxis and 4 possible gametes</p>

13

<p>yes taxis and 4
limiting factor is nitrogen right? i just looked up the definition of limiting factor</p>

<p>yay go _</p>

14

<p>sorry i had to go drop my brother off so i wasn't able to post my list, thanks ivy, also yes i'm positive that the question said NO ADH.</p>

<p>64oxidation reduction - gives electrons off to acceptros? i hope to god this one isnt ATP stuff, cuz i was debating between the two..
65red green color blindness - sex linked recessive</p>

15

<p>damn.. what were the four gametes if you remember?</p>

16

<p>ABC aBC ABc aBc</p>

17

<p>64- yah, redox is always passing of electrons</p>

<p>the four gametes were ABC, aBC, ABc, aBc</p>

18

<p>10NO ADH - more dilute urine </p>

<p>didnt the question ask what happened to urine right after you had caffeine/coffee, so that ADH was released? i put choice 1, that there was a larger volume of more concentrated urine.</p>

19

<p>peachy, I agree-I wrote choice 1. ADH is the Anti-tinkling hormone, which reabsorbs water.</p>

20

<p>doesnt look so good for my score, what is the easiest sat ii to self study and get a great score</p>
