BIOLOGY EOC REVIEW PACKET WITH
CORRECT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
ALREADY GRADED A+
(VERIFIED ANSWERS)
Scientific Theory & Scientific Theory vs. Law (SC.912.N.3.1/ SC.912.N.3.4)
Using the Cladogram to the Right answer questions 11 & 12
1. Which would be the most primitive organism? ray-finned fish
2. Circle 2 organisms that would have the most similar DNA.
3. Are viruses considered living or nonliving? Explain.
Nonliving, they contain DNA, but cannot reproduce. They must
use a host to reproduce.
4. Compare and Contrast Viruses and bacteria in regard to their
structure.
Bacteria: ALIVE, prokaryotes, unicellular
Viruses: NOT LIVING, DNA enclose in a capsid, much smaller
than a bacteria
Macromolecules (SC.912.L.18.1)
5. Fill in chart below:
Contains which of
Building
Organic Molecule: the following: Function Examples
Blocks:
C, H, O, N, P
-Main source of energy for
Glucose,
sugars and living things
Carbohydrates C, H, O Fructose,
starches -structural support for
Glycogen
plants
-Store energy for living
things
-Compose bi-layer in all cell fats
Fatty acid and membranes oils
Lipids C, H
glycerol -Leaves translucent spots waxes
on paper
-steroids = chemical
messengers
1
, -Regulate cell processes
-Form bones and muscle
-Transport substances in
Proteins C, H, O, N Amino Acids enzymes
and out of cells
-fight off disease (immune
system)
DNA
Nucleic Acids C, H, O, N, P nucleotides stores genetic material
RNA
Enzymes (SC.912.L.18.11)
6. What is the function of an enzyme? Acts as a biological catalyst, speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction
2
, 7. How do temperature and pH affect enzymes? most enzymes work best at body temperature, higher temps will cause the enzyme
to no longer work properly
Properties of Water (SC.912.L.18.12)
8. Why is water important to living things? makes up a lot of living things, universal solvent (dissolves many things)
9. Explain what “Water is Polar” means. it is positive on one end and negative on the other end.
10. Define Surface Tension: attraction between water molecules which allows insects and other objects to float on top of water
11. Acids have a pH range of BELOW 7
12. Bases have a pH range of ABOVE 7
13. Neutral solutions have a pH of 7
Cell Theory (SC.912.L.14.1)
14. Explain the components of the cell theory.
-All living organisms are composed of one or more cells
-The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms
-Cells arise from pre-existing cells
Modern Cell theory:
1. Energy flow occurs within cells
2. Heredity information (DNA) is passed on from cell to cell
3. All cells have the same basic chemical composition.
Cell Structure/Function (SC.912.L.14.2)
15. Define the following:
a. Lipid bilayer – double layer of lipids that make up a cell membrane
b. Protein Channels – help move bigger molecules through the cell membrane
16. List the function of the following organelles:
Organelle Function
Nucleus Controls the function of the cell
Ribosomes make proteins
Cell membrane regulate what enters and leaves the cell
Cell wall provides protection and support for plant cells
Mitochondria creates energy for the cell by breaking down sugar
