Why do scientists not classify viruses in any of the five living kingdoms and regard them as non-living?
- A.
They Have No Cell Walls and are therefore only alive when they take over other cells
- B.
They Have No Cytoplasm and are therefore only alive when they take over other cells
- C.
They Have Cytoplasm and are therefore only alive when they take over other cells
Correct Answer
B. They Have No Cytoplasm and are therefore only alive when they take over other cellsExplanation
Viruses are not classified in any of the five living kingdoms because they lack essential characteristics of living organisms. One of these characteristics is the presence of cytoplasm, which is the gel-like substance found within cells. Since viruses do not have cytoplasm, they cannot carry out the necessary metabolic processes to sustain life on their own. Instead, viruses rely on infecting and taking over the cellular machinery of host organisms in order to replicate and survive. Therefore, viruses are considered non-living entities that exhibit characteristics of life only when they invade and exploit host cells.Rate this question:

What is the main characteristic of the phylum - "Chordata"
- A.
Animals which have a supporting rod running the length of their body.
- B.
Animals which have no supporting rod running the length of their body.
- C.
Animals which have an exoskeleton
Correct Answer
A. Animals which have a supporting rod running the length of their body.Explanation
The main characteristic of the phylum "Chordata" is that animals in this phylum have a supporting rod running the length of their body. This supporting rod is called the notochord and it provides support and structure to the body. It is present in all members of the phylum at some stage of their life cycle, although it may be replaced by a backbone in some species. This distinguishing feature sets chordates apart from other animal phyla.Rate this question:

How do scientists place vertebrates into groups based on - "Thermoregulation Methods"
- A.
Saprotherms and Heterotherms
- B.
Hometherms and Poikilotherms
- C.
Hometherms and Autotherms
Correct Answer
B. Hometherms and PoikilothermsExplanation
Scientists place vertebrates into groups based on their thermoregulation methods, specifically whether they are hometherms or poikilotherms. Hometherms are animals that can maintain a relatively constant body temperature, regardless of the external environment. They have the ability to generate and retain heat internally. On the other hand, poikilotherms are animals whose body temperature fluctuates with the temperature of their environment. They cannot regulate their body temperature internally and rely on external sources of heat to warm up or cool down. These two categories help scientists classify vertebrates based on their ability to regulate body temperature.Rate this question:

The Characteristics of the Vertebrate Group - "Birds" - are
- A.
Homeotherm, Gills, Feathers, Eggs with Hard Brittle Shells
- B.
Homeotherm, Lungs, Feathers, Eggs with Hard Brittle Shells
- C.
Homeotherm, Lungs, Fur, Eggs with Hard Brittle Shells
Correct Answer
B. Homeotherm, Lungs, Feathers, Eggs with Hard Brittle ShellsExplanation
The correct answer is "Homeotherm, Lungs, Feathers, Eggs with Hard Brittle Shells." This is because birds are homeotherms, meaning they can regulate their internal body temperature. They have lungs for respiration, feathers for flight and insulation, and lay eggs with hard brittle shells for reproduction. Gills are not a characteristic of birds, as they are adapted for terrestrial life and do not have aquatic respiration. Fur is also not a characteristic of birds, as they have feathers instead.Rate this question:

Why does the definition of a species as organisms that produce fertile offspring have limitations?
- A.
Some Organisms do not always reproduce sexually and some hybrids are fertile
- B.
All Organisms do not reproduce sexually and some hybrids are fertile
- C.
Some Organisms do not always reproduce sexually and all hybrids are infertile
Correct Answer
A. Some Organisms do not always reproduce sexually and some hybrids are fertileExplanation
The definition of a species as organisms that produce fertile offspring has limitations because not all organisms reproduce sexually. Some organisms reproduce asexually, such as bacteria and certain plants. Additionally, some hybrids, which are the offspring of two different species, can be fertile and able to reproduce. This challenges the idea that species can be strictly defined based on their ability to produce fertile offspring.Rate this question:

What types of Variation are there?
- A.
Progressive and Recessive
- B.
Continuous and Discontinuous
- C.
Dominant and Recessive
Correct Answer
B. Continuous and DiscontinuousExplanation
Continuous and discontinuous are types of variation. Continuous variation refers to a range of values that can be measured and can vary within a population, such as height or weight. Discontinuous variation refers to distinct categories or traits that are either present or absent, such as blood type or eye color. These types of variation are important in understanding genetic inheritance and the diversity of traits within a population.Rate this question:
-
- 19.
Which is an example of Discontinuous Variation?
- A.
Blood Groups
- B.
Body Mass
- C.
IQ
Correct Answer
A. Blood GroupsExplanation
Blood groups are an example of discontinuous variation because they are distinct categories that individuals can fall into. Each blood group is clearly defined and separate from the others, with no intermediate or overlapping categories. In contrast, body mass and IQ are examples of continuous variation, as they exist on a spectrum and can vary in a continuous and gradual manner.Rate this question:
-

Which is an example of Continuous Variation?
- A.
Gender
- B.
Height
- C.
Eye Colour
Correct Answer
B. HeightExplanation
Continuous variation refers to a trait that can take on a range of values, with no distinct categories or breaks. In this case, height is an example of continuous variation because it can vary continuously from short to tall, with no clear cutoff points or categories. Gender and eye color, on the other hand, are examples of discontinuous or categorical variation, as they have distinct categories (male/female, blue/brown/green, etc.) with no intermediate values.Rate this question:

What are the causes of different characteristics relating to genetic variation?
- A.
Mutation or Reproduction
- B.
Environmental or Mutation
- C.
Reproduction or Environmental
Correct Answer
A. Mutation or ReproductionExplanation
The causes of different characteristics relating to genetic variation are mutation or reproduction. Mutation refers to changes in the DNA sequence, which can lead to the formation of new alleles and variations in traits. Reproduction, on the other hand, involves the combination of genetic material from two individuals, resulting in offspring with a unique combination of genes. Both mutation and reproduction contribute to genetic variation by introducing new genetic material or reshuffling existing genetic material, respectively.Rate this question:
-
- 22.
What are the causes of different characteristics relating to environmental variation?
- A.
A Mutation
- B.
Reproduction
- C.
The Environment
Correct Answer
C. The EnvironmentExplanation
The environment is the main cause of different characteristics relating to environmental variation. This is because organisms adapt and develop certain traits based on the conditions and resources available in their environment. These traits can include physical characteristics, behavior, and physiological adaptations. The environment plays a crucial role in shaping the genetic makeup and phenotypic expression of organisms over time.Rate this question:

Darwin's Theory of Evolution states that variation is...
- A.
Most Populations of Organisms contain individuals which vary slightly from one another
- B.
Most Populations of Organisms do not vary at all from one another
- C.
All Populations of Organisms are the same
Correct Answer
A. Most Populations of Organisms contain individuals which vary slightly from one anotherExplanation
Darwin's Theory of Evolution states that variation is a fundamental aspect of populations of organisms. This means that most populations of organisms contain individuals that have slight differences from one another. These variations can be in terms of physical traits, genetic makeup, or behavior. This variation is essential for natural selection to occur, as it allows certain individuals to be better adapted to their environment and have a higher chance of survival and reproduction. Over time, these advantageous traits become more common in the population, leading to evolutionary change.Rate this question:
-
- 24.
Darwin's Theory of Evolution states that over-production is...
- A.
Most organisms produce too little young.
- B.
Most organisms produce more young than will survive to adulthood
- C.
Most organisms produce too much young.
Correct Answer
B. Most organisms produce more young than will survive to adulthoodExplanation
Darwin's Theory of Evolution suggests that organisms tend to produce more offspring than the environment can support. This is because the competition for limited resources and the presence of predators and other factors make it difficult for all the offspring to survive to adulthood. Therefore, most organisms produce more young than will ultimately be able to survive and reproduce, leading to a natural selection process where only the fittest individuals pass on their genes to the next generation.Rate this question:
-
- 25.
Darwin's theory of Evolution states that the struggle for existence is...
- A.
Populations do not generally increase rapidly in size therefore there must be considerable competition for survival between organisms
- B.
Populations increase rapidly in size therefore there must be no competition for survival
- C.
Populations increase rapidly in size therefore there is a need for competition in order to control the number of organisms.
Correct Answer
A. Populations do not generally increase rapidly in size therefore there must be considerable competition for survival between organismsExplanation
According to Darwin's theory of evolution, populations do not generally increase rapidly in size. This implies that there must be considerable competition for survival between organisms. This competition arises due to limited resources and the need to adapt to changing environments. Organisms that are better suited to their environment and can outcompete others have a higher chance of survival and passing on their traits to the next generation. Therefore, the presence of competition is necessary to control the number of organisms and ensure the survival of the fittest.Rate this question:
-
- 26.
Darwin's theory of Evolution states that survival is...
- A.
Those with disadvantageous characteristics are more likely to survive
- B.
Those with advantageous characteristics are less likely to survive this struggle
- C.
Those with advantageous characteristics are more likely to survive this struggle
Correct Answer
C. Those with advantageous characteristics are more likely to survive this struggleExplanation
Darwin's theory of Evolution states that individuals with advantageous characteristics are more likely to survive the struggle for survival. This means that traits or features that provide an advantage in terms of adaptation, reproduction, or competition for resources increase the chances of survival and passing on these traits to future generations. This process leads to the gradual accumulation of advantageous traits in a population over time, resulting in the evolution of species.Rate this question:

Why may an Animal arriving on an island evolve differently than its relatives on the mainland and become a new species?
- A.
The animal will evolve to adapt to its surroundings.
- B.
The animal will not want to be the same as its relatives.
- C.
The animal will not change.
Correct Answer
A. The animal will evolve to adapt to its surroundings.Explanation
When an animal arrives on an island, it is often isolated from its relatives on the mainland. This isolation can lead to different environmental conditions and resources on the island, which may require the animal to adapt in order to survive and reproduce. Over time, these adaptations can accumulate and result in significant genetic and physical differences between the island population and its mainland relatives. Eventually, these differences may become so pronounced that the island population can be considered a new species.Rate this question:

How do natural new features occur?
- A.
Random Mutations
- B.
The Organisms create New Alleles
- C.
Human Interference
Correct Answer
A. Random MutationsExplanation
Natural new features occur through random mutations. Mutations are changes in the DNA sequence that can result in new traits or characteristics in organisms. These mutations can happen spontaneously and randomly during DNA replication or due to external factors like radiation or chemicals. Some mutations may be beneficial and provide an advantage to the organism, allowing it to adapt and survive better in its environment. Over time, these mutations can accumulate and lead to the development of new features in a population.Rate this question:

Which of these describes the structure of the Nucleus?
- A.
The Cell contains Genes, within which chromosomes are located.
- B.
The Cell contains chromosomes, within which genes are located.
- C.
The Cell contains DNA, within which genes are located.
Correct Answer
B. The Cell contains chromosomes, within which genes are located.Explanation
The structure of the nucleus is described as the cell containing chromosomes, within which genes are located. This means that the DNA, which carries the genetic information, is organized into chromosomes within the nucleus. Genes, which are segments of DNA, are then located within these chromosomes. This organization allows for the efficient storage and transmission of genetic information within the cell.Rate this question:

What is the alternate form of a gene called?
- A.
Allele
- B.
Chromosome
- C.
Protein
Correct Answer
A. AlleleExplanation
An alternate form of a gene is called an allele. Alleles are different versions of the same gene that can result in different traits or characteristics. Each individual inherits two alleles for each gene, one from each parent. The combination of these alleles determines the genotype and ultimately the phenotype of an organism. Therefore, allele is the correct answer as it accurately describes the alternate form of a gene.Rate this question:

- A.
When The Two Alleles are the same (e.g. BB)
- B.
When The Two Alleles are different (e.g. Bb)
- C.
When There is Only One Allele (e.g. B)
Correct Answer
A. When The Two Alleles are the same (e.g. BB)Explanation
Homozygous refers to a genetic condition where an individual has two identical alleles for a particular gene. In this case, the correct answer states that homozygous means when the two alleles are the same (e.g., BB). This means that both copies of the gene are identical, resulting in the expression of the same trait or characteristic.Rate this question:

What Does Heterozygous mean?
- A.
When The Two Alleles are the same (e.g. BB)
- B.
When The Two Alleles are different (e.g. Bb)
- C.
When There is Only One Allele (e.g. B)
Correct Answer
B. When The Two Alleles are different (e.g. Bb)Explanation
Heterozygous refers to a genetic condition in which an individual has two different alleles for a particular gene. In this case, the example given is Bb, where B and b represent two different alleles. This is in contrast to homozygous, where both alleles are the same (e.g. BB or bb). Having different alleles can result in variations in the phenotype or physical characteristics of an organism.Rate this question:

- A.
BB BB bb bb
- B.
BB BB Bb Bb
- C.
BB Bb Bb bb
Correct Answer
C. BB Bb Bb bbExplanation
When two heterozygous mice are crossed, the possible combinations of alleles for their offspring are BB, Bb, Bb, and bb. This is because the heterozygous mice have one dominant allele (B) and one recessive allele (b). The dominant allele (B) is represented by capital letters, while the recessive allele (b) is represented by lowercase letters. Therefore, the likely offspring for the alleles B and b would be BB, Bb, Bb, and bb.Rate this question:
