BIO 111 ECPI FINAL EXAM QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS GRADED A+ 2025/2026
Active transport - ANS Energy-requiring process that moves material across a cell membrane
against a concentration difference
Passive Transport (Diffusion) - ANS A process that requires no energy to move molecules
down their concentration gradient(from high to low concentration)
Gene - ANS A segment of DNA on a chromosome that codes for a specific trait
Genome - ANS the complete set of genes or genetic material present in a cell or organism
Parts of a cell - ANS Cell membrane, cell wall, centriole, chloroplasts, chromatin, cytoplasm,
endoplasmic reticulum, flagella, golgi complex/apparatus, lysosome, mitochondria, nucleolus,
nucleus, ribosomes, vacuole
cell membrane - ANS the semipermeable membrane surrounding the cytoplasm of a cell.
contains mostly lipids and protiens
Nucleus - ANS A part of the cell containing DNA and RNA and responsible for growth and
reproduction
Golgi apparatus - ANS Packages proteins for transport out of the cell

, Mitochondria - ANS Powerhouse of the cell (ATP)
Lysosomes - ANS Uses chemicals to break down food and worn out cell parts
Flagella - ANS whiplike tails found in one-celled organisms to aid in movement
DNA - ANS A complex molecule containing the genetic information that makes up the
chromosomes.
Mitosis - ANS the division of the nucleus of a cell
Mitosis steps - ANS prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
1st degree burn - ANS only epidermis is damaged; redness, swelling, and pain
2nd degree burn - ANS epidermis and part of dermis (blistered)
3rd degree burn - ANS charring of the skin, all layers damanged
type 1 diabetes - ANS the body doesn't produce insulin, the patient is dependent on insulin
for survival
type 2 diabetes - ANS - Insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency with progressively
lower insulin secretion over time
- Can be managed with lifestyle modificaitons, oral medicaitons, and/or injections including
insulin
- Strongly associated with obesity, physical inactivity and family history of diabetes
thyroid hormones - ANS T3, T4, calcitonin
