SATII Biology MAY

<p>Can't you have mutations for chromosomes too? Nondisjunction? Klinefelters? and such?</p>

<p>Go to <a href="http://www.biology-online.org/2/7_mutations.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.biology-online.org/2/7_mutations.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>They call chromosome abnormalities as mutations.</p>

<p>Not sure though.</p>

<p>yeah its convergence (the snail one.. where they evolved.. not an example of convergence)</p>

<p>Clasof08, yeah it is.. I put that one too</p>

<p>The Bio was one of the easiest test I've taken relating the AP/SAT Biology in my opinion. There were so many punnett square and ecology questions (I chose E) :) My favorite</p>

<p>Probably got 1 or 2 wrong, skipped 3 (had no idea what they were, didn't learn it in AP)</p>

<p>Rich Hobo... do you remember some of your answers from the E?</p>

<p>Im about to cry :(</p>

<p>i thought kaplan/pr were useless.</p>

<p>omg...reading all of this just makes me worry. I think I'm getting out of here and pray that I pulled at least a 700 on the test....ahhhhh!</p>

<p>well - are u sure the answer to birds were teeth - they used to have teeth</p>

<p>I looked at the first three questions of E and then switched to M... I really hope there is a nice curve</p>

<p>for the rain forest, grassland, problem:</p>

<p>My reasoning behind picking "DECIDUOUS FOREST" is that we as humans live in deciduous forests, hence we should receive our most resources from there, no? Also, for whoever picked Tropical rain forest, just think about how much of this area actually exists? Tropical rainforests are very small in size.</p>

<p>Birds don't have teeth. They have beaks:</p>

<p>"Modern birds are characterised by feathers, a beak with no teeth, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a light but strong skeleton."</p>

<p>From wikipedia</p>

<p>And...I put post-transcriptional something for the mutation one...because changes in the chromosome (ex. where it completely reverses itself, etc.) are examples of mutations as well, and I thought the RNA one was only dealing with post-transcriptional modifications (addition of chemical groups, etc.) but I dunno, maybe I just interpreted it wrong.</p>

<p>Nah, I don't remember my answers from E.. All I now is that I skipped 1 from that section (i think it was somewhere between like 68-70). Overall, I sped through that section - easy as hell.</p>

<p>Finished the test with 20 minutes remaining, then went over everything again. Lol</p>

<p>you probably dont remember... but the question about the last experiement with the terrarium... would oxygen increase or decrease with a glass cap on?</p>

<p>There was a group of questions based on two graphs about a hormone and measuring TAT and mRNA or something. Did anybody think those graphs/questions looked familiar from a practice test from some prep book? because when I looked at it I could've sworn I saw something really similar before... but I can't remember where i saw it...</p>

<p>if the curve isn't nice then i'm pretty sure i did badly. 4 wrong so far.</p>

<p>hard test today</p>

<p>parathyroid hormones increase calcium levels right... so getting rid of the parathyroid would decrease parathyroid hormones and therefore decrease calcium levels? ....</p>

<p>Ok</p>

<p>The BC/PTH lvl graph... anyone got answers for that?
Same with experiment with mRNA and that protein...</p>

<p>plants used hormones or electrical impluses for that question??</p>

<p>Pedigree... i didn't say it said reccesive.. i thought it just was autosomal</p>

<p>Photosynthesis with o18 answers?</p>

<p>@kaotic_spice: :) You're just right, one experiment from the M section was the exact same one from Princeton Review's practice test 2 I guess, even the choices were so similar. </p>

<p>Anyway, I hope they just didn't put it on purpose to fool us all with any subtle change they might have done to the question.</p>

<p>I believe so kaotic.. although that graph confused the hell out of me.</p>
