All eukaryotes have a __________ that makes them different from the prokaryotes?
-
Ribosomes
-
Nucleus
-
Cell wall
Correct Answer
A. NucleusExplanation
The correct answer is nucleus. The presence of a nucleus is what distinguishes eukaryotes from prokaryotes. Prokaryotes, such as bacteria, do not have a nucleus, while eukaryotes, including plants, animals, and fungi, have a well-defined nucleus that contains their genetic material. The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear membrane, which helps regulate the flow of molecules in and out of the nucleus. It plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, such as DNA replication, transcription, and gene expression.Rate this question:

The diffusion of water through a semipermeable or selectively permeable membrane is known as:
-
Diffusion
-
Osmosis
-
Both of these
Correct Answer
A. OsmosisExplanation
Osmosis is the correct answer because it specifically refers to the diffusion of water through a semipermeable or selectively permeable membrane. Diffusion, on the other hand, is a more general term that encompasses the movement of any substance from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, without specifying the involvement of a membrane. Therefore, both diffusion and osmosis are not equivalent, and osmosis is the more accurate term to describe the diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane.Rate this question:

The formula for density is:
-
Density = mass divided by volume
-
Density = mass multiplied by volume
-
Density x mass x volume
Correct Answer
A. Density = mass divided by volumeExplanation
The formula for density is "mass divided by volume" because density is a measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume. By dividing the mass by the volume, we can determine how dense an object or substance is. This is because density is defined as mass per unit volume, so dividing the mass by the volume gives us the density value.Rate this question:

Looking at the homework on page 7 in the notebook, items with the same mass all floated?
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The given answer is false because items with the same mass do not always float. Whether an object floats or sinks depends on its density, which is determined by both its mass and volume. If the object's density is less than the density of the liquid it is placed in, it will float. However, if the object's density is greater than the density of the liquid, it will sink. Therefore, items with the same mass can have different densities and may either float or sink depending on their density and the density of the liquid.Rate this question:

What cells were the first to evolve?
-
Prokaryotes
-
Eukaryotes
Correct Answer
A. ProkaryotesExplanation
Prokaryotes were the first cells to evolve because they are simpler in structure and lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. They are considered to be the most primitive form of life and are believed to have appeared on Earth around 3.5 billion years ago. Eukaryotes, on the other hand, evolved later and are more complex, with a nucleus and various organelles enclosed in membranes. Therefore, based on the evolutionary timeline and the characteristics of prokaryotes, they are considered to be the first cells to evolve.Rate this question:

As the magnification increases when looking at a speciman underneath the microscope the _____ decreases?
-
Viewing area
-
Speciman
-
Speciman size
Correct Answer
A. Viewing areaExplanation
As the magnification increases when looking at a specimen underneath the microscope, the viewing area decreases. This is because higher magnification allows for a closer and more detailed view of the specimen, but at the same time, it limits the field of view. The higher the magnification, the smaller the area that can be seen at once, resulting in a decrease in the viewing area.Rate this question:

The variable that is changed by the scientist is the independent variable and the variable that the scientist is recording data on is the dependent variable. The dependent variable is the variable that is being measured and/or observed. Additional variables know as the constant variables remain the same or constant throughout the experiment. These variables must be kept constant to insure that they do not effect the outcome of the experiment. Based on the following hypothesis: If liquid fertilzer is used then the plant will grow larger, what is the independent variable?
-
Type of Plant
-
Type of Fertilizer
-
Type of Planter
-
Amount of Plant Growth
Correct Answer
A. Type of FertilizerExplanation
In this hypothesis, the independent variable is the type of fertilizer. This is because the scientist is changing or manipulating the type of fertilizer used in the experiment. The dependent variable, on the other hand, is the amount of plant growth. This is what the scientist is measuring or observing as a result of the different types of fertilizer. The type of plant and type of planter are not mentioned in the hypothesis and therefore are not relevant to the independent variable in this case.Rate this question:

Why are cells so small. Cells depend of their surface/volum ratio.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Cells are small because they rely on their surface-to-volume ratio. This means that as cells increase in size, their volume increases at a faster rate than their surface area. Since the surface area is responsible for exchanging nutrients, gases, and waste with the environment, a larger surface area allows for more efficient and effective exchange. Therefore, cells need to be small in order to maintain a high surface-to-volume ratio and ensure proper functioning.Rate this question:

What direction does water inside a potato flow if it is placed in salt water?
-
Into the potato cell
-
Out of the potato cell
Correct Answer
A. Out of the potato cellExplanation
When a potato is placed in saltwater, the concentration of salt outside the potato is higher than the concentration inside the potato cell. This creates a hypertonic environment outside the cell. To balance the concentration, water molecules move from an area of lower solute concentration (inside the potato cell) to an area of higher solute concentration (outside the cell). As a result, water flows out of the potato cell, causing it to shrink or lose water. Therefore, the correct answer is "out of the potato cell".Rate this question:
