What is the result of meiosis II?
A. Two secondary sex cells
B. Four haploid daughter cells
,C. Two primary sex cells
D. Duplication of primary sex cells
Answer: B
Mitosis results in two primary sex cells and meiosis I leads to two secondary sex cells. In meiosis
II, the resulting four cells have half the chromosomes of the parent cell.
Which organelle in animal cells is most similar in function to the chloroplast in plant cells?
A. Cell membrane
B. Vacuole
C. Ribosome
D. Mitochondrion
Answer: D
Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis, or energy conversions, in plants. Mitochondria are
the site of respiration, or energy conversion, in animals.
What is the expected pH of orange juice?
A. Between 3.0 and 4.0
B. Between 6.0 and 7.0
C. Between 8.0 and 9.0
D. Between 11.0 and 12.0
Answer: A
Orange juice is fairly acidic, meaning that it would fall toward the lower end of the pH scale
,Sodium's ground state electron configuration may be represented as 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s. How
many energy levels does sodium have?
A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 6
Answer: C
The first energy level of any atom contains just an s sub shell. The second may include an s and a
p sub shell. Sodium has electrons in 3 energy levels. in the first level, it has two electrons in sub
shell s. in the second level, it has two electrons in sub shell s and six electrons in sub shell p. In
the third level, it has one electron in sub shell s. Adding up the electrons, 2 + 2 + 6 + 1, gives you
the total number of electrons in sodium, or sodium's atomic number, 11.
Which bone is most proximal to the shoulder?
A. Radius
B. Ulna
C. Humerus
D. Carpal
Answer: C
To be proximal is to be close to the point of attachment.
Somatotropin is secreted by the __________?
A. Pituitary gland
B. Adrenal glands
C. Hypothalamus
D. Thyroid
, Answer: A
Somatotropin is also known as growth hormone. It is secreted by the pituitary, which regulated
growth.
