BIO-182 EXAM I VERIFIED
QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT
DETAILED ANSWERS
Aerobes - correct answer- organisms that require
oxygen to live
Allopatric Speciation - correct answer- gene flow is
interrupted when a population is divided into geographically
isolated subpopulations
Alveolates - correct answer- have membrane-
enclosed sacs (alveoli) just under the plasma membrane
Amoebozoans - correct answer- A protist in a clade
that includes many species with lobe- or tube-shaped
pseudopodia; includes: slime molds, tubulinids, and entamoebas
Anaerobes - correct answer- organisms that do not
require oxygen to live
,Apicomplexans - correct answer- -parasites of
animals, and some cause serious
human diseases
-They spread through their host as infectious cells
called sporozoites
-One end, the apex, contains a complex of
organelles specialized for penetrating host cells
and tissues
Arbuscular Mycorrhizae - correct answer- fungi
extend hyphae through the cell walls of root cells and into tubes
formed by invagination of the root cell membrane
Archaea - correct answer- -some live in extreme
environments and are called
extremophiles
-extreme halophiles live in highly saline
environments
-extreme thermophiles thrive in very hot
environments
-methanogens live in swamps and marshes and
, produce methane as a waste product
Artificial Selection - correct answer- process of
deliberately selecting and breeding individuals with desired
traits
Ascomycetes - correct answer- -member of the fungal
phylum Ascomycota,
commonly called sac fungus
-the name comes from the saclike structure in
which the spores develop
Basidiomycetes - correct answer- -a fungus whose
spores develop in basidia
-include the majority of familiar mushrooms and
toadstools
Biological Species Concept - correct answer- defining a
species as a population whose members have the potential to
interbreed in nature and produce viable, fertile offspring
