18. How can closed terrariums survive for many decades with no added water or air?
The plants and microorganisms recycle water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and cellular respiration, since the inputs of cellular respiration are the outputs of photosynthesis, and vice versa.
Plants store unlimited water and oxygen in their tissues, which sustains them indefinitely.
The plants and microorganisms recycle water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide because those are the general inputs for both photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
The sealed environment prevents the need for photosynthesis or respiration.
The plants and microorganisms recycle water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and cellular respiration, since the inputs of cellular respiration are the outputs of photosynthesis, and vice versa.
19. Which of the following would be an appropriate description at “A” in the diagram on the previous page?
Carbon dioxide is converted into glucose by decomposers.
Worms eat the dead snake and release the carbon as CO2 through cellular respiration.
The snake undergoes fermentation, which releases carbon into the soil.
Carbon in the soil gets loose and flies into the air.
Worms eat the dead snake and release the carbon as CO2 through cellular respiration.
20. Which of the following would be an appropriate description at “B” in the diagram on the previous page?
The tree takes carbon up by its roots for photosynthesis.
The tree absorbs carbon from sunlight.
The tree takes oxygen into its leaves.

11. When a person becomes dehydrated, their pituitary gland releases antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which tells the kidneys to retain water and reduce urine output. As the body returns to normal hydration levels, ADH secretion decreases. Is this an example of a positive or negative feedback loop?
Positive
Negative
Negative
9. What would happen if the endocrine system shut down completely?
The body would lose the ability to produce digestive enzymes, stopping nutrient absorption.
The body would be unable to regulate blood sugar levels.
The immune system would stop functioning, leaving the body vulnerable to infections.
The heart would stop beating, leading to immediate death.
The body would be unable to regulate blood sugar levels.
10. If you experience a drop in blood pressure, receptors in your blood vessels send signals to the brain, which triggers a response to increase your heart rate and constrict blood vessels to raise blood pressure. Is this an example of a positive or negative feedback loop?
Positive
Negative
Negative
13. What happens to a cell in a hypertonic solution?
The cell shrinks as water leaves.
The cell bursts as water enters.
The cell remains the same size.
The cell absorbs solutes, causing it to burst.
The cell shrinks as water leaves.
15. You are planning an investigation into how the body changes in response to different levels of exercise. Which of the following is a good example of a prediction for your experiment?
If people go on long runs, they will be healthy.
The participants who complete the hardest exercises will have the highest increase of heart rate.
Exercise will cause the body to adapt to conditions to maintain homeostasis.
When you exercise, you’ll start to notice changes in your body.
The participants who complete the hardest exercises will have the highest increase of heart rate.
17. Which direction will the water flow in the diagram below?
