1) which of the following is not related to the five fundamental characteristics of life?
a) a bacterial cell divides to produce two cells.
b) sugars are transported on carrier proteins into cells across the plasma membrane.
c) sugars are broken down inside cells to produce energy.
d) the gene that specifies skin color in frogs is expressed during its development from a
tadpole into an adult frog.
e) giraffes have longer necks so that they can reach food sources unavailable to other
animals.
correct answer: e
the five fundamental characteristics of life are growth, reproduction, response to stimuli,
energy use, and adaptation/evolution. while options a to d are directly related to these
characteristics, e refers to a physical trait (longer necks in giraffes) that is more related to
evolutionary adaptation, not directly to the basic characteristics of life itself. option e
pertains to natural selection but is not one of the five core characteristics of life.
