WGU C190 Objective Assessment (NEW 2025/ 2026
Update) Introduction to Biology | Questions & Answers
| Grade A| 100% Correct (Verified Solutions)
atom - answer-:basic unit of matter
exocytosis - answer-:an internal vesicle fuses with the plasma membrane and releases its
contents to the outside
metabolism - answer-:sum of all the metabolic pathways within an organism
metabolic pathway - answer-:series of chemical reactions each of which is catalyzed by an
enzyme
chemical reaction - answer-:chemical change in which new molecules are formed from existing
molecules
intermediates - answer-:compounds that are internal to a metabolic pathway
respiration - answer-:humans and other organisms including plants uses glucose as food and
release the energy through this process
thylakoid membrane - answer-:where do light dependent reactions occur
, chloroplast - answer-:where do calvin cyle occur
phosphorylation - answer-:energy is used to build atp from adp and a phosphate group process
stores chemical energy in the atp
pyruvate - answer-:glucose is split into 2 3 carbon molecules
catabolic pathway - answer-:break down large complex molecules into simple ones and release
energy
anabolic pathway - answer-:build complex molecules from simple building blocks
gene - answer-:region of a chromosome that has a specific function
phenotype - answer-:physical traits of an organism
genotype - answer-:genetic information that produces these traits
allele - answer-:variations for genes
linked genes - answer-:genes that are very close together on a chromosome do not assort
independently
incomplete dominance - answer-:the heterozygous genotype exhibits an intermediate
phenotype
