Animal Physiology
A kind of learning that uses rewards and punishments.
Rough ER/ribosomes, ER, Golgi Apparatus, Vesicles.
3 or 4 depending on use of ER.
What are the three major types of symbiosis?
mutualism, parasitism, commensalism
Different forms of a gene are called...
Identify the roles and directionality of the two major types of vascular tissue in plants.
Xylem carry water and minerals up from the root to the leaves. The Phloem carries nutrients (like sugar) and water down from the leaves to the roots.
The part of the nephron that specializes in reabsorbing water and salts.
The loop of Henle
A molecule containing only a nitrogenous base and a sugar, but no phosphate group.
Nucleoside
A whale fin and a human arm have similar skeletal structures, but different functions. What is this called?
Homologous structures.
If a homozygous black guinea pig (BB) is crossed with a homozygous white guinea pig (bb), what is the probability that an offspring will have black fur?
100%
Please draw and label all major parts of a leaf.
1
This organelle is responsible for the production of lipids and steroids in the cell.
Smooth ER
Draw a saturated fatty acid, and an unsaturated fatty acid, then explain which one has a lower melting temperature.
Unsaturated has some double bonds and a lower melting temperature.
Co-dominance
When in what phase of meiosis does crossing over occur?
Prophase I
The oxygen in the atmosphere was produced by members of what Kingdom?
Monera, or bacteria. Specifically, cyanobacteria.
This organelle is responsible for the production of H2O2.
Peroxisome
What is a frameshift mutation and would the 5'-end or 3'-end of the mRNA be most affected by it?
3' end.
Many different species arising from a single species due to separation due to variations in environment (e.g., Galapagos finches).
23
What is the difference between the ovum, ovule, and ovary in the pistil?
Ovum is the actual egg cell (gamete), the ovule becomes the seed, the ovary becomes the fruit and is the most outer part.
What is an example of an annelid, and do they have a coelom?
Earthworm, and yes.
Describe a plausible molecular mechanism to respond to low oxygen levels in animal cells?
1
What is the frequency of asymptomatic carriers of an autosomal recessive disease if the allele frequency of this disease is 0.27?
Hardy-Weinberg
Is it possible for a son to inherit an allele on an X chromosome from his father? Explain why or why not.
It is not possible because males only have one X chromosome, which always comes from the mother.
CO2 fixation occurs in what cellular location?
Stroma
