~SAT 2 Biology Review Thread~

<p>cardiac muscle?</p>

<p>My bio weekend has just begun with a Bio final. I still need to review a little bit more.</p>

<p>which one is not correct about alternation of generation ??
a. sperms are produced via mitosis
b. sports are produced via meiosis
c. gametes divide mitotically
d. sporophyte derive mitotically from zygote</p>

<p>A… 10char</p>

<p>D…</p>

<p>and myocardial infrarction is just another word for atherosclerosis or the hardening of the arteries so it involves smooth muscles</p>

<p>what is the period where an neuron can not pass along an impulse</p>

<p>Why D though ? I still don’t get it. It should not be A since in moss, gametophyte is dominant so sperm is produced by mitosis in the antheridium.</p>

<ol>
<li> Which dialysis bag experiences the largest percent change in mass?
(A) 0.2 M sucrose
(B) 0.4 M sucrose
(C) 0.6 M sucrose
(D) 0.8 M sucrose
(E) 1.0 M sucrose</li>
</ol>

<p>Doesn’t this depend on the solution it is put into? If it’s water then E</p>

<p>It’s a question directly from sparknotes and they said the answer was D (I have no clue why D would be the answer, I put E as well)</p>

<p>SparkNotes is probably wrong… that makes absolutely no sense. The tests aren’t 100% accurate, they make errors with answers and correcting. So don’t take their word too heavily.</p>

<p>Data, your question is based on a diagram.</p>

<p>I forget what it looked like, but I remember the diagram.</p>

<p>The diagram provides the other info. you need to solve the question.</p>

<p>nns91, gametophyte is dominant, but it still goes through alternation of generations. that is a similarity between bryophytes and vascular plants.</p>

<p>pulmonary circuit / systematic circuit?</p>

<p>systematic: through the body
pulmonary: lungs</p>

<p>classify protazoans as:
a. plants
b. bacteria
c. fungi
d. protists
e. none of the above</p>

<p>I believe d. protists, are they animal parasites?
All the animals of an area can be classifies as a:
A. Population
B. Community
C. Ecosystem
D. Biome
E. Biosphere</p>

<p>B…? I believe.</p>

<p>Explain the difference between operant and classical conditioning?</p>

<p>Operant is trial and error learning. Classical conditioning is associating two different things and putting them together and reacting to it. e.g. dogs salivate when they hear a bell which they associate with food.</p>

<p>More Sparknotes mayhem:</p>

<ol>
<li><pre><code>Which of the following is the best example of exponential population growth?
</code></pre>

<p>(A) A population of pigeons in a small town grows until there are few nesting areas left.
(B) The salmon population in the Yukon River grows rapidly, greatly increasing the food supply for bears in the area.
(C) Dandelions grow in a field until they cover the entire expanse.
(C) Bacteria in a laboratory grow in many petri dishes and are transferred to new, empty dishes as the old dishes begin to fill.
(C) The population of buffalo in the Great Plains is severely diminished by hunting and development. lolwut. C three times?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Next question::</p>

<p>A blood vessel has thick muscular walls. This blood vessel is</p>

<p>I. an artery
II. carrying oxygenated blood
III. carrying blood away from the heart
(A) I only
(B) III only
(C) I and II only
(D) I and III only
(E) I, II, and III</p>

<ol>
<li>D?
Next Question is: E?</li>
</ol>

<p>But yea, SparkNotes can get really strange at times…</p>

<p>How does the body regulate the rate of respiration?</p>

<p>Indeed.</p>

<p>By the CO2 concentration in the blood. I think.</p>

<p>Which gland controls breathing rate?</p>

<p>and
Yeast cells possess all of the following characteristics EXCEPT</p>

<pre><code>(A) cell wall
(B) mitochondria
(C) asexual reproduction
(D) prokaryotic
(E) anaerobic respiration
</code></pre>

<p>So were my answers right? Very confusing questions though.</p>

<p>Yes CO2 concentrations along with pH sensors.</p>

<p>The gland the controls breathing rate is the hypothalamus.</p>

<p>And the answer to the question about yeast cells is D?</p>

<p>When a cell is placed in to hypertonic solution is will:
A) Swell
B) Shrink
C) Remain the same
D) Self-Destruct</p>

<p>Yes they were right. Same with the yeast.</p>

<p>It’s not hypothalamus: I mean more specifically which gland.</p>

<p>B… lol @ D</p>

<p>B. Shrink ??</p>

<p>What is significant about C4 and CAM photosynthesis ??</p>
