LICATA BIO 1201 EXAM 1 QUESTIONS
& ACCURATE COMPLETE SOUTIONS
what is the correct order for the hierarchy of biological organization from the least to
most complex? - Correct Answer ✔✔ molecule, organelle, organ, organ system,
organism, population, community, ecosystem
No amino acid molecule by itself can speed up or catalyze reactions between other
molecules; however, when amino acids are joined together to make a protein with
catalytic properties, the new structure (enzymatic protein) can speed up the rate of a
specific chemical reaction. What does this illustrate? - Correct Answer ✔✔ emergent
properties
which of the following attributes is common to both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells? -
Correct Answer ✔✔ the use of DNA as the information storage molecule
How does DNA encode information? - Correct Answer ✔✔ in the sequence of
nucleotides
Which taxonomic domain includes multicellular photosynthetic organisms? - Correct
Answer ✔✔ eukarya
which of the following is an example of "unity in diversity"? - Correct Answer ✔✔
forelimbs of all mammals have the same basic structure, modifies for different
environments ; all organisms use essentially the same genetic code, the structure of
DNA
in order for a hypothesis to be able to be used in science, what must be true? - Correct
Answer ✔✔ it is testable and falsifiable
what is true of a scientific theory? - Correct Answer ✔✔ It generates testable
hypotheses, is supported by a large body of evidence, and is broad in scope.
system biology is an attempt to? - Correct Answer ✔✔ understand the behavior of entire
biological systems
what best distinguishes a hypothesis from a theory? - Correct Answer ✔✔ hypothesis
usually are relatively narrow in scope ; theories have broad explanatory power
a substance that cannot be broken down into other substances by ordinary chemical
procedures is an - Correct Answer ✔✔ element
