|
||||
| What is the main function of the cell wall in a plant cell? | to give structural support
🗑
|
||||
| Cells take in food for energy. The part of the cell that aids in digestion of the food is the lysosomes. What is the main role of lysosomes in the process of food digestion? | breaking down wastes
🗑
|
||||
| Cells perform many different processes that an organism needs to survive and grow. What is the main function of the process of cellular respiration? | the release of energy

|
||||
| What are the levels of organization in living systems? | (in order) cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms, ecosystems
🗑
|
||||
| When each structure works together to perform a function, what level of organization do they make up? | system
🗑
|
||||
| When athletes begin to exercise, their heart rates and respiration rates increase. At what level of organization does the human body coordinate these functions? | at the system level
🗑
|
||||
| Plants have cells, tissues, organs, and systems that allow them to function as complete organisms. What parts of a plant function as an organ? | leaves
🗑
|
||||
| The brain, spinal cord, and nerves work together. What do they combine to form? | a system
🗑
|
||||
| When a planarian is cut half, what order will the sections grow back? | (in order) cells, tissues, organs, organisms
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| Blood is a fluid made up of several different parts. What level of structural organization best describes blood? | a tissue
🗑
|
||||
| In the structural organization of the central nervous system, what would be considered an organ? | the brain
🗑
|
||||
| A tissue is a group of cells that work together to perform a specific function. What would be an example of a tissue in the human body? | muscles
🗑
|
||||
| Muscle cells have the ability to store and release large amounts of energy. What body function is best served by this release of energy? | moving body parts
🗑
|
||||
| The skin is the largest organ in the human body. Why is skin considered to be an organ? | it is made of tissues
🗑
|
||||
| Why do red blood cells and white blood cells have such different shapes? | their form helps them perform different functions in the body
🗑
|

| What type of specialized cells can contract? | muscle cells
🗑
|
||||
| An elephant is a multicellular organism that weighs about 200 pounds at birth and can grow to weigh as much as 15,000 pounds. What increases as the elephant grows into an adult? | the number of cells in its body
🗑
|
||||
| What structure is common to both a euglena and a paramecium? | contractile vacuole
🗑
|
||||
| What structural characteristics is present in a paramecium that is not present in an amoeba? | pellicle
🗑
|
||||
| An amoeba eats by surrounding its food with its body. How does a paramecium eat differently than an amoeba? | a paramecium sweeps food into its oral groove
🗑
|
||||
| A euglena cell has a structure called an eyespot that detects light. A paramecium does not have an eyespot, and so it cannot detect light. Why doesn't a paramecium need an eyespot? | a paramecium does not photosynthesize its own food
🗑
|
||||
| What structure found in plant cells is also found in volvox but not in euglenas? | cell wall
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| An advantage of asexual reproduction is that it does not require fertilization. What advantage do the offspring of sexual reproduction most likely have as a result of fertilization? | the DNA variation in offspring may allow survival in a changing environment
🗑
|
||||
| Vertebrate animals produce offspring by sexual reproduction. What is an advantage to this type of reproduction? | there is increased genetic diversity within the population
🗑
|
||||
| Potatoes can reproduce asexually. Each sprout on a parent potato can grow into a new potato plant. How does the genetic material in the sprout compare to the parent potato? | both the sprout and the parent potato have the dame genetic identity
🗑

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.
