UA BSC 108 EXAM TWO PRACTICE
SOLUTION 2026 QUESTIONS WITH
ANSWERS GRADED A+
⩥ How is aerobic respiration different from anaerobic respiration?
Answer: aerobic respiration requires the presence of oxygen while
anaerobic does not require oxygen
⩥ what is the equation for aerobic cellular respiration Answer: glucose +
oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water + energy
⩥ what is the function of cellular respiration Answer: to breakdown
sugar in the presence of oxygen in order to release energy through ATP
⩥ equation for anaerobic respiration (fermentation) in yeast Answer:
C6H12O6 -> C6H12O6 -> 2CH3CH2OH + 2CO2 + energy
⩥ what three factors affect the amount of CO2 produced by fermentation
Answer: 1. temperature
2. concentration of sugar
3. concentration of yeast
, ⩥ Why do disaccharides produce more CO2 than monosaccharides?
Answer: disaccharides are able to be broken down so they are able to
produce twice as much CO2 than monosaccharides
⩥ What are the stages of mitosis? Answer: interphase, prophase,
metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis
⩥ How does meiosis differ from mitosis? Answer: Meiosis produces
cells that are genetically different. Mitosis produces cells that are
genetically identical.
⩥ Mendel's First Law Answer: the law of segregation; during gamete
formation each member of the allelic pair separates from the other
member to form the genetic constitution of the gamete
⩥ Mendel's Second Law Answer: Law of independent assortment:
alleles of different genes assort independently during gamete formation
⩥ what is a monohybrid Answer: a hybrid that is heterozygous with
respect to a specified gene.
⩥ what is a dihybrid Answer: a hybrid that is heterozygous for alleles of
two different genes.
