All Chapters Included ✅

Chapter 1 Biology: The Study of Life

1) Which of the following is NOT related to the five fundamental characteristics of life?
A) A bacterial cell divides to produce two cells.
B) Sugars are transported on carrier proteins into cells across the plasma membrane.
C) Sugars are broken down inside cells to produce energy.
D) The gene that specifies skin color in frogs is expressed during its development from a
tadpole into an adult frog.
E) Giraffes have longer necks so that they can reach food sources unavailable to other
animals.

2) Which of the following statements best describes a characteristic that may be associated with
both living organisms and nonliving matter?
A) Reproduction by passing on genetic information to future generations.
B) Composed of cells.
C) Capable of evolution.
D) Able to produce heat as a byproduct of chemical reactions.
Answer: D

3) Which of the following statements is an inaccurate example of how the living organism in the
scenario exemplifies a characteristic feature of living organisms?
A) Photosynthetic bacteria meet the energy requirement, as they are able to convert energy
from sunlight into the chemical energy they store in sugars.
B) As humans, we meet the cell requirement because even though we are made of tissues
and organs, all of those components are made of specialized types of cells.

, C) English bulldogs would meet both the information and ability to replicate requirements
because when they have a litter of puppies, we would expect the progeny to be English
bulldogs due to their DNA from the parents.
D) Monarch butterflies meet the evolution requirement because each of them will look
different as adults (butterflies) than they do as juveniles (caterpillars) which demonstrate
their ability to change over time.
E) All of the statements are proper examples of how that organism exemplifies particular
characteristics of life.

4) Pasteur’s experiments demonstrated that ________.
A) cells cannot survive in swan-necked flasks
B) in order to grow, cells need to be supplied with oxygen
C) spontaneous generation can only occur if nutrient broth is left open to the environment
D) sterilizing nutrient broth prevents spontaneous generation
E) preexisting cells present in the air can grow in sterilized nutrient broth

5) Recall Pasteur’s experiment on spontaneous generation. If he had just warmed the
nutrient-rich broth, rather than boiled it, what would have been the likely outcome of his
experiment? Cells would ________.
A) not have appeared in either flask
B) have appeared in both flasks
C) have appeared in the swan-neck but not the straight-neck flask
D) have appeared in the straight-neck but not the swan-neck flask

6) Spontaneous generation ________.
A) was demonstrated to occur under normal laboratory conditions by Pasteur
B) apparently occurred at least once–when life on Earth began
C) occurs every time a new species evolves from a preexisting species
D) addresses the formation of new cells from existing cells

7) Recall Pasteur’s experiment on spontaneous generation. What would the expected results
have been if Pasteur’s swan-neck experiment hypothesis were incorrect?
A) Cells would not have appeared in either flask.
B) Cells would have appeared in both flasks.
C) Cells would have appeared in the swan-neck but not the straight-neck flask.

8) Algae in the genus Caulerpa typically grow to a length of over half a meter and have structure
similar to stems, leaves, and roots. Reproduction occurs when adults produce sperm and eggs
that fuse to form offspring. Each adult Caulerpa consists of just a single cell, however. Which
of the following statements is TRUE?
A) Caulerpa violate the pattern component of the cell theory that all organisms consist of
cells.
B) Caulerpa violate the process component of the cell theory that all cells come from
preexisting cells.

9) Cells are ________.
A) only found in pairs because single cells cannot exist independently
B) limited in size to 200 and 500 micrometers in diameter
C) characteristic of eukaryotic but not prokaryotic organisms
D) characteristic of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms

10) The cell theory states that all cells come from preexisting cells. If this is the case, why are the
cells in a multicellular organism so different from one another?
A) Cells in a multicellular organism are exposed to different energy sources allowing them
to develop different features.
B) During cell division, the genetic information that is replicated and passed onto the
daughter cells is different from the original cell.
C) The genetic information of each cell is copied and passed on to the daughter cells and the
molecular machinery that reads that genetic information is different in each cell.
D) The genetic information of each cell is copied and passed on to the daughter cells and the
molecular machinery makes copies of particular genes in different cells to generate
different features in those cells.
