Questions and Answers

Area of a chromatid is exchanged with matching homologous chromosomes?
-
Crossing Over
-
Law of Segregation
-
Biodiversity
Correct Answer
A. Crossing OverExplanation
Crossing over is the process in which genetic material is exchanged between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. This exchange occurs between chromatids, which are replicated copies of chromosomes. This process leads to genetic recombination and variation in offspring. Therefore, the area of a chromatid being exchanged with matching homologous chromosomes is a characteristic of crossing over. The other options, Law of Segregation and Biodiversity, do not involve the exchange of genetic material between chromatids.Rate this question:

What era(s) did mammals supposedly evolve?
-
Mesozoic
-
Cenozoic
-
Mesozoic and Cenozoic
-
Unknown
Correct Answer
A. Mesozoic and CenozoicExplanation
Mammals supposedly evolved during both the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras. The Mesozoic era, also known as the Age of Reptiles, spanned from about 252 to 66 million years ago and was characterized by the dominance of dinosaurs. It is believed that early mammals coexisted with dinosaurs during this era. The Cenozoic era, also known as the Age of Mammals, began about 66 million years ago after the extinction of dinosaurs and continues to the present day. This era saw the diversification and expansion of mammals into various ecological niches.Rate this question:

What is the method used to solve a problem or do an experiment?
-
Classification Groups
-
Scientfific Method
-
Descriptive Data
Correct Answer
A. Scientfific MethodExplanation
The scientific method is a systematic approach used to solve problems or conduct experiments. It involves a series of steps including making observations, forming a hypothesis, conducting experiments, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions. This method allows researchers to gather reliable and valid information, ensuring that their findings are based on evidence and can be replicated by others. It is widely used in various fields of science to investigate and understand the natural world.Rate this question:

What is 6CO2+6H2O= C6H12O6+602
-
Chlorophyll
-
Adenine
-
Thymine
Correct Answer
A. ChlorophyllExplanation
Chlorophyll is the correct answer because it is a pigment found in plants that is responsible for capturing light energy during photosynthesis. The equation given represents the process of photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen using light energy. Chlorophyll plays a crucial role in this process by absorbing light energy and initiating the chemical reactions that produce glucose, which is the main source of energy for plants.Rate this question:

Fact of nature accepted by scientists is
Correct Answer
Scientific Law
Theory
Scientific MethodExplanation
Scientists accept both scientific laws and theories as facts of nature. A scientific law is a statement that describes a natural phenomenon or pattern in the physical world. It is based on repeated observations and experiments and is considered to be universally true. On the other hand, a scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world. It is supported by a large body of evidence and has undergone extensive testing and peer review. The scientific method, although not a fact of nature itself, is the systematic approach that scientists use to acquire knowledge and understanding of the natural world.Rate this question:

Food quanity, Size of habitat, and more factors are part of __________, and it affects the population size and growth.
-
Carrying capacity
-
Biodiversity
-
Habitat Degradation
Correct Answer
A. Carrying capacityExplanation
Carrying capacity refers to the maximum number of individuals of a species that can be supported by a given habitat. It takes into account various factors such as food quantity, size of habitat, and other limiting resources. As these factors change, the carrying capacity can also change, influencing the population size and growth. Therefore, carrying capacity is directly related to the factors mentioned and affects the population size and growth.Rate this question:

-
Types of Fossils
Correct Answer
A. Types of FossilsExplanation
The given words, such as amber, trace, mold, cast, and imprint, are all associated with the field of paleontology and the study of fossils. These words describe different types of fossils that can be found in the earth, providing evidence of ancient life forms. Therefore, the correct answer is "Types of Fossils."Rate this question:
