Chapter 1 Biology: The Study of Life

1) Which of the following observations demonstrates the fundamental characteristic of life
known as energy?
A) Organisms are made of membrane-bound units called cells.
B) A bacterium replicates to become two bacteria.
C) Plants absorb sunlight to stay alive and reproduce.
D) The gene that specifies skin colour in frogs is passed from parent to offspring.
E) The use of antibiotics has increased the frequency of bacteria populations that are resistant to
those antibiotics.
Answer: C
Type: MC
Reference: Section 1.1
Bloom's Taxonomy: Applying
LO: 1.1. Explain what it means to say that an organism is "alive."

2) How does a scientific theory differ from a scientific hypothesis?
A) There is no difference–the terms are interchangeable.
B) A theory is an explanation for a very general phenomenon or observation; hypotheses treat
more specific observations.
C) A hypothesis is an explanation for a very general phenomenon; theories treat more specific
issues.
D) Theories define scientific laws; hypotheses are used to set up experiments.
Answer: B
Type: MC
Reference: Section 1.2
Bloom's Taxonomy: Comprehension
LO: 1.2. Explain what organisms are made of and how cells come to be.

3) Algae in the genus Caulerpa typically grow to a length of over half a meter and have
structures similar to stems, leaves, and roots. Reproduction occurs when adults produce sperm
and eggs that fuse to form offspring. Each adult Caulerpa, however, consists of just a single cell.
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.
C) Caulerpa violate both the pattern and process components of the cell theory.
D) The existence of Caulerpa is consistent with the cell theory.
Answer: D
Type: MC
Reference: Section 1.2
Bloom's Taxonomy: Comprehension
LO: 1.2. Explain what organisms are made of and how cells come to be.
