MULTIPLE CHOICE
1) In The 1600s, William Harvey Studied Reproduction And Development. What Is The
Term Given To The Theory That States That An Organism Develops From The Fertilized
Egg By A Succession Of Developmental Events That Lead To An Adult?
A) Preformation
B) Transduction
C) Epigenesis
D) Equational Transformation
E) Sequential Pattern Formation
ANS: C)
EXPLANATION:
Epigenesis Refers To The Theory That An Organism Develops From A Fertilized Egg
Through A Series Of Gradual Developmental Steps, With Complexity Increasing Over Time.
This Was Proposed By William Harvey And Contrasts With Preformation, Where It Was
Believed That A Miniature Adult (Homunculus) Existed Within The Egg, Fully Formed And
Simply Growing Larger.
Preformation (A) Is The Theory Where The Organism Was Thought To Already Be Pre-
Formed In The Egg, Unlike Epigenesis.
,2) What Is The Term Given To The Theory That States That The Fertilized Egg Contains A
Complete Miniature Adult?
A) Transduction
B) Preformation
C) Transformation
D) Cell Theory
E) Conjugation
ANS: B)
EXPLANATION:
Preformation Is The Theory That The Fertilized Egg Contains A Fully Formed, Miniature
Version Of The Adult Organism. This Idea Was Popular Before The Discovery Of
Epigenesis.
Transduction (A) Refers To The Transfer Of Genetic Material Between Bacteria, Which Is
Unrelated To Developmental Theories.
Transformation (C) Is A Genetic Term Involving The Uptake Of DNA By A Cell, And Cell
Theory (D) States That All Organisms Are Made Of Cells, Which Doesn't Address The
Concept Of Embryo Development.
3) What Is The Term Given To The Theory That Put Forth The Idea That Living Organisms
Could Arise By Incubating Nonliving Components?
A) Evolution
B) Spontaneous Generation
C) Natural Selection
, D) Collective Combination
E) Preformation
ANS: B)
EXPLANATION:
Spontaneous Generation Is The Now-Debunked Idea That Living Organisms Can Arise
From Non-Living Matter. This Theory Was Popular Before Louis Pasteur's Experiments
Showed That Life Arises From Pre-Existing Life, Not Spontaneously.
Evolution (A) Is The Theory Of Gradual Change In Species Over Time, And Natural
Selection (C) Is A Mechanism Of Evolution, Neither Of Which Propose Spontaneous Life
Creation.
4) What Is A Homunculus?
A) The Intermediate Stage Of The DNA After CRISPR-Cas Treatment
B) During Development Sometimes A Growing Individual's Cell Can Become Mutated And
One Part Of The Child Has Different Characteristics Than The Other
C) A Large Cyst Or Growth On A Plant Due To Viral Infection
D) When The Mitochondrion Grows In Size Before Splitting Into Two Via Fission
E) A Sperm Or Egg Containing A Miniature Adult, Perfect In Size And Proportion
ANS: E)
