, Preface
The test bank for the eighth edition of Campbell and Reece’s Biology is a thorough
revision based on the solid foundation established in the seven previous editions. Each
test bank contributor, along with editors, reviewed each question carefully to ensure that
the content and terminology of that question accurately reflects the material in the new
edition of Biology. The contributors and editors revised each chapter of the test bank with
the goal of replacing or significantly altering 30 to 40 percent of the questions.

The editing of prior questions and the writing of new questions for the eighth edition was
accomplished by the following team of biologists:

Chs. 1, 5, 35 through 39: William Barstow, University of Georgia, Athens, GA
Chs. 2 through 4: C.O. Patterson, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX
Chs. 6 through 21;
41 through 43; 49 and 50: Louise Paquin, McDaniel College, Westminster, MD
Chs. 22 through 34: Michael Dini, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX
Chs. 40, 46 through 48: John Lepri, University of North Carolina, Greensboro, NC
Chs. 44, 52 through 56: John Zarnetske, Hoosick Falls Central School, Hoosick
Falls, NY
Ch. 45: Jean DeSaix, University of North Carolina,
Chapel Hill, NC
Ch. 51: John Burner

The Self-Quiz questions found in the review section of each textbook chapter have also
been added to the test bank.

We tried to classify each question according to the complexity of the mental processes
involved. The model we used is modified from Bloom, Benjamin et al., Taxonomy of
Educational Objectives: The Classification of Educational Goals, Handbook I: Cognitive
Domain. New York: Longmans, Green, 1956. The categories in the cognitive domain that
we used to classify questions are

Level 1: Knowledge/Comprehension: recognizing or recalling information;
understanding of facts and ideas by organizing, comparing, contrasting, translating,
interpreting, giving descriptions, explaining and stating main ideas; using information to
deduce a best answer.

Level 2: Application/Analysis: applying previously learned information in new
situations to answer questions that have single or best answers; examining and breaking
information into parts by identifying motives or causes; making inferences and finding
evidence to support generalizations; applying knowledge to new situations; interpreting
data; finding connections from one chapter to another.

, Level 3: Synthesis/Evaluation: Compiling information in a different way by combining
elements in a new pattern or proposing alternative solutions; making judgments about
information, validity of ideas, or quality of work based on internal evidence or a set of
criteria.

We recognize that you may interpret our classifications of the questions differently;
therefore, these classifications should be considered only as a rough guide to the
knowledge and skills required for answering each question.

In addition to the new categories, we have added another new element to the eighth
edition: The questions for each chapter are preceded by an introductory paragraph written
by the person who revised the chapter. The paragraph is intended to help the user
understand the changes in the content and scope of the information in the chapter that is
to be assessed.
