    • Every cell has only one nucleus

    • That plants cannot have cells

    • Animals are only one that have cells

    Correct Answer
    A. That all living things are made of cells
    Explanation
    The Cell Theory states that all living things are made of cells. This theory, proposed by Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann in the 19th century, revolutionized the understanding of biology. It states that cells are the basic building blocks of life and that all organisms are composed of one or more cells. This theory also includes the idea that cells come from pre-existing cells through cell division. The discovery of the Cell Theory laid the foundation for modern biology and our understanding of how living organisms function and interact.

    Osmosis is diffusion of ONLY water molecules

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Osmosis is a specific type of diffusion that involves the movement of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane. It occurs when there is a difference in the concentration of solutes on either side of the membrane, causing water to move from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. This process is exclusive to water molecules and does not involve the diffusion of other substances. Therefore, the statement that osmosis is the diffusion of only water molecules is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 

    Diffusion is movement of molecules from low [ ] to high [ ] 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. This process occurs in order to achieve equilibrium, where the concentration of molecules is equal throughout the space. Therefore, the correct answer is False, as molecules move from high to low concentration during diffusion.

    Cell shrinks

    • Iso

    • Hypo

    • Hyper

    Correct Answer
    A. Hyper
    Explanation
    In the context of cell biology, the term "hyper" refers to a state of increased concentration or activity. When a cell shrinks, it means that there is a loss of water or solutes from the cell, causing it to decrease in size. This process is known as cell shrinkage or cell dehydration. Therefore, the correct answer "hyper" indicates that the cell is in a hyperosmotic or hypertonic environment, where the concentration of solutes outside the cell is higher than inside, leading to water loss and cell shrinkage.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    Movement of water, but no NET movement

    • Iso

    • Hypo

    • Hyper

    Correct Answer
    A. Iso
    Explanation
    The term "iso" refers to isotonic, which means there is an equal concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell. In this context, "movement of water, but no NET movement" suggests that water is moving freely across the cell membrane in both directions, but there is no overall change in the volume or concentration of the cell. This indicates that the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell is balanced, resulting in an isotonic solution.

    A scientist would not want to test more than one item (variable) at a time because it would make it difficult to determine which variable is causing the observed effects. By testing one variable at a time, the scientist can isolate and control the factors being tested, allowing them to accurately determine the cause and effect relationship between variables. Testing multiple variables simultaneously would introduce confounding variables and make it challenging to draw valid conclusions from the experiment.

    A scientist uses a control group because?

    • So the data from the experimental group can be compared to the data in a control group

    • So that they can test again and again

    • So that they can make more than one hypothesis

    • So that can have others test the experiment

    Correct Answer
    A. So the data from the experimental group can be compared to the data in a control group
    Explanation
    A scientist uses a control group because it provides a baseline for comparison. By having a control group that is not exposed to the experimental treatment, the scientist can compare the results of the experimental group to the control group and determine the effect of the treatment. This helps to eliminate confounding variables and ensure that any observed differences are due to the treatment being tested.

    Should you use people's opinions, or personal beliefs to help you find the answer to a scientific problem?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    Using people's opinions or personal beliefs to find the answer to a scientific problem is not recommended because science relies on evidence-based research and objective analysis. Personal opinions and beliefs are subjective and can be influenced by biases, emotions, and personal experiences, which may lead to inaccurate or biased conclusions. Scientific problems require objective and unbiased methods such as experimentation, data collection, and analysis to arrive at reliable and valid results. Therefore, it is important to rely on scientific methods rather than personal opinions or beliefs when seeking answers to scientific problems.
