Lock and key, only one enzyme works on that one substrate. (ex: Lactose and Lactase)

7. BIOCHEM – 50 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
What macromolecule group is most efficient in storing energy? WHY?
ANSWER:
More kilocalories per gram of energy can be stored within lipids than any other group. (More bonds)

8. CELL – 10 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:

9. CELL – 20 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
What process would not take place if the ribosome no longer functioned?
ANSWER:
Translation or protein synthesis

10. CELL– 30 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
What are 3 things all cells (prokaryotes and eukaryotes) have in common
ANSWER:
DNA, ribosomes, plasma/cell membrane

11. CELL– 40 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
Explain how oxygen diffuses into the blood?
ANSWER:
Through simple diffusion, oxygen will move from an area of high concentration to low concentration, through the phospholipids.

12. CELL – 50 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
Explain the difference in water movement between plant and animal cells.
ANSWER:
Both use osmosis, however, plants have a cell wall and central vacuole that help regulate water movement, when water moves in the cell can become TURGID but typically will not burst like an animal cell, when water moves out the cell becomes PLACID and the plant will appear wilted.

13. GENETICS– 10 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
What is the end result of meiosis?
ANSWER:
4 genetically unique/diverse haploid cells

14. GENETICS – 20 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
Why is it important that the number of chromosomes be reduced during meiosis?
ANSWER:
So the chromosome number stays constant from generation to generation

18. EVOLUTION – 10 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
What is Darwin’s theory of natural selection?
ANSWER:
Those individuals better suited for their environments will survive longer enough to reproduce and pass on their genes.

19. EVOLUTION – 20 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
What are homologous structures?
ANSWER:
Structures that are built the same but have different functions.

20. EVOLUTION– 30 Points QUESTION: ANSWER:
What do analogous structures/ convergent evolution tell us about evolution?
ANSWER:
Common ancestry is not the only way to have similarities, environment and similar needs can cause convergence of similar structures

Give an example of temporal isolation
ANSWER:
Anything related to “time” differences that prohibited mating.
