CLEP BIOLOGY STUDY GUIDE #2

WASTES FILTERED FROM THE BLOOD BU THE NEPHRONS IN THE KIDNEY AND IS SENT TO THE URETER

Vitamins act as

SHARE ELECTRONS

PLANTS AND ANIMALS OBTAIN USABLE NITROGEN THROUGH WHAT?

An enzyme for breakdown of starch into sugars. Present in human saliva

HARDY-WEINBERG

Asexual reproduction requires

WHAT IS WEAKER THAN IONIC, COVALENT, DISULFIDE OR DOUBLE BONDS?

Produced in thymus, spleen, and bone marrow. Creates antibodies to fight infections

Reducing a population's genetic variation (hunting seals until endangered)

Located inside of Ovary

Small proteins present in many animal tissues, hormone that stimulates development of T cells

DENSE BALL OF AT LEAST 16 CELLS FROM CLEAVAGE:

May be used for the same purpose (e.g., flying) but share no underlying structural similarity

WHY MILK CURDLES?

WHAT ARE BOUND WITH PEPTIDE BONDS AND ARE THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF PROTEINS

WHAT DOES PLANT CELLS HAVE THAT ANIMAL CELLS DO NOT?

Occur as result of divergent evolution, as 2 species form from a common ancestor. Features share a common genetic origin

LINEAGE THAT LED TO THE MODERN HOMO SAPIENS DIVERGED FROM THE LINEAGE THAT LED TO THE MODERN CHIMPANZEE OCCURRED WHEN?

How is taxonomy categorized?

Produced in red bone marrow. Contain hemoglobin, delivers oxygen throughout the body

Enzymes are

WHAT SECRETED DIGESTIVE ENZYMES, HYDROCHLORIC ACID AND GASTRIC JUICES WHICH AID IN DIGESTION

REDUCING A POPULATIONS GENETIC VARIATION (HUNTING SEALS UNTIL ENDANGERED)

THE PROPERTIES OF WATER

Condition like mom is always a carrier and son gets the disease. Which condition?

Most species will show little change in their geological history, remaining in an extended state called stasis

Associate 'dorsal' with:

Survival of the fittest, adapting to environment

These occur in plant and animal cells

How altitude affects plants

Different species evolve to the same traits from different backgrounds (different insects, same wings)

Separate groups of the same species adapting to different environments (migrating birds 2 different locations)

RIGID HOLLOW RODS, THE THIRD PRINCIPAL COMPONENT OF THE CYTOSKELETON

ALGAE AND PROTOZOA BELONG TO WHAT KINGDOM

WHEN THE WATER CONCENTRATION INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CELL IS EQUAL. ITS IS SAID TO BE IN AN:

DEVELOPED FOR DETAILED COMPARISON OF CLOSELY RELATED BACTERIAL-SIZED GENOMES

MAY BE USED FOR THE SAME PURPOSE BUT SHARE NO UNDERLYING SIMILARITY

WHAT PHYLUM ARE SNAKES IN?

WHAT INVOLVES THE ATTRACTION OF ATOMS OF DIFFERENT POLARITY AND CAN BE EASILY BROKEN?

A change in the gene pool of a small population that takes place strictly by chance due to random sampling

In leaves of vascular plant, molecules of water follow which of the following routes as they move upward from the roots?

INHIBITS THE PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM

WHAT IS FOUND ON THE ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM (ER)?

Female reproductive part of flower

INVOLVE THE TRANSFER OF ELECTRONS

Blood supply to fetus on womb

WHAT KIND OF LIVING CELLS FIRST APPEARED ON EARTH

When DNA is heated to denaturation temps to form single strands and then cooled double helices will re-form

PRODUCES DIGESTIVE ENZYMES TO BREAKDOWN FOOD AND PRODUCES INSULIN AND GLUCAGON TO CONTROL SUGAR LEVELS IN YOUR BODY
