REVIEW PRACTICE EXAMINATION
2026 QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS
GRADED A+
◍ biogeography.
Answer: the study of the distribution of living things over time and in
different areas
◍ multiple alleles.
Answer: three or more forms of a gene that code for a single trait
◍ What must a hypothesis be?.
Answer: Testable
◍ types of mutations- inversion.
Answer: a section of a chromosome breaks off, changes direction, and
recombines in the same chromosome
◍ nucleolus.
Answer: makes ribosmal RNA
◍ nonrandom mating.
Answer: a way genetic variation can occur- some individuals have more
opportunity to mate and produce offspring than do other individuals
◍ metaphase II (step 4).
Answer: chromosomes line up along equator, not in homologous pairs
◍ describe the polar and non polar regions of the phospholipid layer.
Answer: polar heads are hydrophilic "water loving" non polar tails are
hydrophobic "water fearing"
, ◍ spindle fibers form.
Answer: prophase
◍ how many divisions does meiosis have.
Answer: 2
◍ nonpolar.
Answer: molecules that are arranged to where there is not a negative and
positive end
◍ prepares the cell to divide.
Answer: interphase
◍ what are the function(s) of carbohydrates?.
Answer: provide quick energy
◍ Phases of meiosis.
Answer: 1. Prophase I2. Anaphase I3. Telophase II4. Metaphase II5.
Prophase I6. Anaphase II7. Metaphase I8. Telophase I
◍ what are the 4 stages of the cell cycle.
Answer: 1. G1 or GAP12. Synthesis (S)3. G2 and GAP24. Mitosis (M)
◍ def fitness.
Answer: physical and behavioral traits that allow an organism to survive and
reproduce
◍ telophase II (step 3).
Answer: nuclear membrane reforms, cytoplasm divides, 4 daughter cells
formed
◍ evolution.
Answer: change over time
◍ anaerobic.
Answer: respiration that does not use oxygen; krebs cycle and electron
transport shuts down, runs on glycolysis
◍ what are the filial (F1).
