TEST BANK FOR CAMPELL BIOLOGY 1. Chapter 1 Evolution, the Themes of Biology, and Scientific Inquiry This introductory chapter explores the basic themes and concepts of biology, with emphasis on the core theme of evolution. It also introduces stude nts to the thinking of scientists. Questions are therefore general; however, an effort has been made to include some from each skill level. As in the rest of this test bank, questions that feature art or those for WHICH several questions follow upon some data or a scenario are placed together at the end of the chapter. Multiple -Choice Questions 1) A localized group of organisms that belong to the same species is called a A) biosystem. B) community. C) population. D) ecosystem. E) family. ANSWER: C TOPIC: CONCEPT 1.1 SKILL: KNOWLEDGE/COMPREHENSION 2) Organisms interact with their environments, exchanging matter and energy. For example, plant chloroplasts convert the energy of sunlight into A) the energy of motion. B) carbon dioxide and water. C) the potential energy of chemical bonds. D) oxygen. E) kinetic energy.

What is its most likely classification? A) Eukarya B) Archaea C) Animalia D) Protista E) Fungi ANSWER: B TOPIC: CONCEPT 1.2 SKILL: Application/Analysis 13) A filamentous organism has been isolated from decomposing organic matter.
