TEST 2 BIO 242/ FALL NAME
ID #
Students MUST enter their name and ID number on BOTH the question and answer (scantrons) sheets of
each exam in the correct spaces. Also students must enter the correct version of their tests on their
answer (scantrons) sheet in the correct space, failure to do so will result in an automatic zero for that
exam.
Choose the best answer.
Fill in the appropriate bubble.
Make sure ALL electronic equipment is put away.
For true, fill in a.
For false, fill in b.
