1) The Pattern Component Of The Cell Theory Claims That All Organisms Consist Of
Cells.
A) True
B) False
ANS: A
Reference: Section 1.1
Bloom's Level:
Remembering
Los: Chp1-2. Describe The Two Components Of The Cell Theory.
2) How Does A Scientific Theory Differ From A Scientific Hypothesis?
A) There Is No Difference—The Terms Are Interchangeable.
B) A Theory Is An Explanation For A Very General Phenomenon Or Observation;
Hypotheses Treat More Specific Observations.
C) A Hypothesis Is An Explanation For A Very General Phenomenon; Theories Treat
More SpecificIssues.

3) Algae In The Genus Caulerpa Typically Grow To A Length Of Over Half A Meter And
Have Structures Similar To Stems, Leaves, And Roots. Reproduction Occurs When
Adults Produce Sperm And Eggs That Fuse To Form Offspring. Each Adult Caulerpa,
However, Consists Of Just A Single Cell. Which Of The Following Statements Is True?
