    Transcription + __________________ = Protein Synthesis

    Explanation
    Transcription is the process by which the DNA sequence is copied into mRNA. Translation, on the other hand, is the process by which the mRNA sequence is used to synthesize a protein. Therefore, when transcription is combined with translation, it leads to protein synthesis, as the mRNA sequence is translated into a specific sequence of amino acids that form a protein.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Translation + mRNA meets up with tRNA who brings amino acids and puts together the proteinsat the ribosome.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Translation is the process in which the genetic information encoded in mRNA is used to synthesize proteins. During translation, mRNA binds to ribosomes, and transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules bring amino acids to the ribosome based on the codons on the mRNA. The ribosome then catalyzes the formation of peptide bonds between the amino acids, ultimately assembling the protein. Therefore, the statement that translation involves mRNA meeting up with tRNA to put together proteins at the ribosome is correct.

    The removal of wastes from an organism is called?

    • A)Transport

    • B)Excretion

    • C)Respiration

    • D) Reproduction

    Correct Answer
    A. B)Excretion
    Explanation
    Excretion is the process of removing waste products from an organism. This includes the elimination of metabolic waste such as carbon dioxide, urea, and excess water. Through excretion, the body maintains homeostasis by getting rid of harmful substances and maintaining proper balance. Transport refers to the movement of substances within an organism, respiration is the process of obtaining oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide, and reproduction is the production of offspring. Therefore, excretion is the correct answer as it specifically relates to the removal of waste.

    Flowers Go through Photosyntheirs to look pretty?

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Flowers do not go through photosynthesis to look pretty. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. It is a vital process for plants to produce their own food. While flowers may use the glucose produced through photosynthesis for growth and development, their primary purpose is to attract pollinators for reproduction, not to look pretty. The vibrant colors and attractive shapes of flowers are adaptations to attract insects, birds, or other animals that help in the pollination process. Therefore, the statement that flowers go through photosynthesis to look pretty is false.

    Rate this question:

  • 6.

    In an experiment pavolv casued a dog to salivate when it heard the ring of a bell. which type of learning was demonstrated by the dog?

    • A) hibernation

    • B)refelxes

    • C)classical conditioning

    • D)migration

    Correct Answer
    A. C)classical conditioning
    Explanation
    The dog in the experiment demonstrated classical conditioning. Classical conditioning is a type of learning where an organism learns to associate a neutral stimulus with a meaningful stimulus, resulting in a learned response. In this case, the dog learned to associate the sound of the bell (neutral stimulus) with the presentation of food (meaningful stimulus), which caused it to salivate. Over time, the dog developed a conditioned response of salivating when it heard the bell alone, even without the presence of food.

    • A) Incomplete Dominance

    • B)Co-dominance

    • C)Polygenic

    • D) sex- linked

    Correct Answer
    A. A) Incomplete Dominance
    Explanation
    This example of flowers resulting in pink color when red and white flowers are crossed is known as incomplete dominance. In incomplete dominance, neither allele is completely dominant over the other, resulting in a blending or intermediate phenotype. In this case, the red allele and the white allele are not completely dominant over each other, leading to the pink color phenotype.

    Estivation ?

    • A) slower metabolism in winter

    • B)slower eating

    • C) heading towards the south

    • D)slower metabolism in the summer/Heat

    Correct Answer
    A. D)slower metabolism in the summer/Heat
    Explanation
    Estivation refers to a state of dormancy or inactivity that some animals enter during hot and dry summer months. During estivation, the metabolism of these animals slows down to conserve energy and cope with the extreme heat. This enables them to survive in harsh conditions when resources are limited. Therefore, option D, slower metabolism in the summer/heat, is the correct answer as it accurately describes the phenomenon of estivation.
