Question
Answer
Phylogeny   Evolutionary history of a species

Morphological & molecular homologies   Similiarities based on shared ancestries.  
🗑
3 types of systematics   Hierarchical system, Linnaean system, binomial system  
🗑
Cladograms in phylogeny   Patterns of shared characteristics.  
🗑
Molecular clock   Rate of change is calculated and then extrapolated back.  
🗑
3 Domains of Universal Tree of Life   Bacteria, Eukarya, Archaea  
🗑
1st virus discovered in plants (1800's)   Tobacco mosaic virus  
🗑
Viral envelope   Derived from host cell membrane.  
🗑
Generalized viral life cycle   Parasites, Entry, Assimilation, Self assembly  
🗑
Bacteriophages example   Phages that infect E. coli  
🗑
Viral hosts   Each type of virus can infect & parasitize only a limited range of host cells.  
🗑
Natural selection   Favors phage mutants resistant to bacterial defenses.  
🗑
Retroviruses   Host's RNA polymerase now transcribes viral DNA into viral RNA molecules.  
🗑
HIV   Envelopes weith glycoproteins for binding to specific WBC.  
🗑
What does Transcription produce in an HIV infection?   More copies of viral RNA.  
🗑
Most tumor viruses probably cause cancer only   in combination with other mutagenic events.  
🗑
Viruses that mutate & "jump" host   Hanta virus, Ebola virus  
🗑
Classification - New 3 Domain system   Bacteria, Archaebacteria, Eukaryotes  
🗑
In Prokaryotic metabolism, how do bacteria get their energy & nutrients?   Photoautotrophs, chemoautotrophs, heterotrophs  
🗑
Why does life on Earth depend on bacteria?   It's a decomposer and nitrogen fixation.  
🗑
How do cells vary the amount of specific enzymes?   By regulating gene transcription.  
🗑
Operon example   Enzymes in a biosysnthesis pathway.  
🗑
Tryptophan operon   binds allosterically to regulatory protein.  
🗑
Operons produce enzymes only   when nutrient is available.  
🗑
Which taxa contains organisms that are most distantly related?   Class  
🗑
What characteristic to prokaryotes and eukaryotes share?   Kinds of nucleotides in their DNA.  
🗑
Prokaryotes differ from eukaryotes by what characteristics?   Structure of flagella, ribosomes, and chromosomes. Also, methods of cell division.  
🗑
Organisms that are photosynthetic.   Cyanbacteria, diatoms, dinoflagellates, Phaeophyta  
🗑
An organism that isn't photosynthetic.   Foraminifera  
🗑
Examples of mutualism.   1) lichens, 2) mycorrhizae, 3) nitrogen-fixing bacteria in nodules, and 4) zooflagellates that live in the guts of termites  
🗑
Not an example of mutualism.   Plasmodial slime molds  
🗑
Asexual reproduction in fungi is carried out by   conidia.  
🗑
Angiosperms differ from all other plants because   they produce fruits.  
🗑
The deuterostomes differ from protostomes in what way?   1) Early cleavages of the zygote, 2) ultimate function of the opening to the archenteron, 3) embryonic origin of the mouth, and 4) embryonic origin of the coelom  
🗑
Both deuterostomes and protostomes have   three germ layers in the developing embryo.  
🗑
What characteristics do roundworms have?   1) a pseudocoelom, 2) bilateral symmetry, 3) a mesoderm germ layer, 4) an ectoderm germ layer  
🗑
Roundworms do not have   a notochord.  
🗑
A characteristic common to all chordates that is lacking in other animal groups is   the appearance of pharyngeal gill slits.  
🗑
The science of describing, naming, and classifying organisms is   taxonomy.  
🗑
Closely related genera may be grouped together in a single   family.  
🗑
Related classes are grouped together in the same   phylum.  
🗑
In the six-kingdom system, the kingdom that includes the protozoa is   Protista.  
🗑
A taxon that contains a recent common ancestor and all its descendants is   monophyletic.  
🗑
Using DNA as a molecular barcode   could help taxonomists identify and describe new species.  
🗑
The conclusion that fungi are more closely related to animals that to plants was based in large part on comparing   ribosomal RNA sequences.  
🗑
Some systematics classify crocodiles and birds in the same taxon because they are monophyletic. These systematists follow which approach?   Cladistic  
🗑
When cladists use the principle of parsimony, they   choose the simplest explanation to interpret the data.  
🗑
The genome of a virus consists of   DNA or RNA.  
🗑
The capsid of a virus consists of   protein.  
🗑
The correct sequence in viral reproduction is   attachment, penetration, replication, assembly, release.  
🗑
Peptidoglycan is a chemical compound found in the cell walls of   most Eubacteria.  
🗑
In conjugation, two bacterial cells of different mating types come together, and   genetic material is transferred from one to another.  
🗑
The majority of heterotrophic bacteria are   free-living saprotrophs.  
🗑
Bacteria that thrive in puncture wounds are likely to be   obligate anaerobes.  
🗑
Bacteria that are autotrophs   manufacture their own organic molecules from simple raw materials.  
🗑
What group of bacteria contains the Gram-positive, anaerobic bacterium that causes botulism?   Clostridia  
🗑
A mutation that inactivates the repressor gene of the lac operon results in   the continuous transcription of the structural genes.  
🗑
An mRNA molecule transcribed from the lac operon contains nucleotide sequences complementary to   structural genes coding for enzymes.  
🗑
What is typically absent in bacteria?   Enhancers  
🗑
What is characteristic of genes and gene regulation in both bacteria and eukaryotes?   Promoter  
🗑
What is characteristic of genes and gene regulation in eukaryotes, but not bacteria?   Enhancers and transcription factors  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
