CLEP Biology Study Guide (Latest 2023/ 2024 Update) Questions and Verified Answers| Grade A | 100% Correct Q: Osmosis passive transport of water diffusion where water seeks to have both solute concentrations across a membrane to be equal (isotonic). water wants to dilute the higher solute concentration by moving from low to high areas. Q: Facilitated Diffusion Answer: specialized proteins embeded in cell membrane permit passage of substances of a particular shape and size Q: Lysosome Answer: stores enzymes (proteins) digests macromolecules and cell waste Q: 2 things that only plant organelles have that animals don't Answer: chloroplasts - site of photosynthesis cell wall Q: Prokaryotes Answer: cell without organelles or nucleus (bacteria, pathogens) reproduce by fission (parent cell divide into 2 offspring cells) a sexual all offspring genetically the same Q: Eukaryotes Answer: cells that contain organelles Q: Enzymes Answer: proteins that act on a substrate -catalysts are used to speed up reaction -destroyed at high temp or a pH that is too high/low Q: Gilbert Lewis dot structure Answer: diagrams that show bonding between atoms of molecule (atoms bond to make molecule) Q: Ionic bond Answer: don't share, donate, or accept electrons Q: Cohesion Answer: attraction between two LIKE molecules Q: Adhesion Answer: attraction between two DIFFERENT molecules Q: Capillary Action Answer: ability for water to defy gravity -like water sticking to glass Q: Henry Cavendish Answer: discovered hydrogen Q: William Prout Answer: discovered chemical composition of pure urea (urine) -food must contain fat,carb,protein Q: Where do plants store glucose Answer: starch Q: Carbs Answer: mono/di/poly saccharides cellulose and chitin starch and glycogen Q: Lipids Answer: fats, phospholipids, steroids Q: Robert Hooke Answer: discovered cells using microscope Q: Endoplasmic Reticulum synthesize and release proteins for a cell and is connected to nucleus Q: Smooth ER Answer:
