BIOLOGY EOC REVIEW QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS
somatic - ANSWER-Are stem cells somatic or gametes?
by activating certain parts of DNA - ANSWER-How does differentiation occur?
DNA Replication - ANSWER-What process occurs in the nucleus and copies DNA?
DNA's hydrogen bonds unzip by helicase - ANSWER-During DNA replication
complimentary bases are paired by Adenine matching to Thymine and Guanine
matching to Cytosine. What happens first before pairing can occur?
To produce ATP for cellular processes - ANSWER-What is the main purpose of
cellular respiration?
At the ribosome in the cytoplasm - ANSWER-During protein synthesis a protein is
being built. Where does this happen within the cell?
Competition - ANSWER-What is an example of a density dependent limiting factor?
Fire - ANSWER-What is an example of a density independent limiting factor?
Logistic - ANSWER-What type of growth reaches carrying capacity and has an S
shape?
Exponential - ANSWER-What type of growth shows a continuous growth of a
population and has a J shape?
Analogous - ANSWER-What kind of structures are similar in function, but have no
common ancestors such as wings on a butterfly and wings on a bird?
homologous - ANSWER-Organisms with the same structures with different functions
that have a common ancestor are known as what type of structure?
crossing over and mutations - ANSWER-How are ways to get genetic variation?
Anaphase - ANSWER-What phase causes the chromosomes in mitosis and/or
meiosis to pull to opposite sides of the cell?
It provides genetically different cells for variation - ANSWER-During Meiosis crossing
over occurs. Why is this important and what happens?
4 different haploid cells - ANSWER-What is the end result of meiosis?
carbon dioxide - ANSWER-What gas is produced during alcoholic fermentation
(anaerobic respiration) ?
