MULTIPLE CHOICE.
Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question.
1)
Natural selection involves energetic trade
-
offs between which of the following?
A)
increasing the number of individuals produced during each reproductive episode and a corresponding
decrease in parental care
B)
choosing how many offspring to produce over the course of a lifetime and how long to live
C)
producing large numbers of gametes when employing internal fertilization versus fewer numbers of
gametes when employing external fertilization
D)
high survival rates of offspring and the cost of parental care
E)
the emigration of individuals when they are no longer reproductively capable or committing suicide
Answer: D
2)
Salmon are born in freshwater environments and then migrate to the sea. Near the end of their lives, they return
to the freshwater stream where they were born to spawn. In freshwater, water constantly diffuses into the body
and ions are lost from the body. In salt water, body water diffuses out of the body and excess ions are gained
from the water. A salmon's gills have special cells to pump salt in or out of the body to maintain homeostasis. In
response to the salmon's moves between freshwater and salt water, some cells in the gills are produced and
others are destroyed. These changes made in the cells of the gills during the lifetime of an individual salmon are
an example of which of the following?
A)
acclimatization
B)
natural selection
C)
adaptation
D)
trade
-
off
Answer: A
3)

sized and very strong

a tight layer of square cells attached to a basement membrane

alternating layers of thick and thin cells
C)
multiple layers of cells, stacked from the basolateral side to the apical side
D)
a single layer of cells of variable height
E)
squamous cells overlying cuboidal cells
Answer: C
5)
Epithelial tissues have polarity, with an apical side that faces the environment and a basolateral side that faces
the interior of the animal. Because of the harsh environmental exposure on the apical side, epithelial cells have a
short life span of 2
-
6 days. Which of the following is the most likely reason that the tissue as a whole does not
wear away, despite the short life spans of the cells?
A)
The epithelial tissue is unusually thick.
B)
The tissue has cells that actively undergo mitosis and cytokinesis to replace the lost cells.
C)

Which of the following is a true statement about body size and physiology?
A)
The rate at which an animal uses nutrients and produces waste products is independent of its volume.
B)
The wastes produced by an animal double as its volume doubles, and triple as its surface area triples.
C)
Small and large animals face different physiological challenges because an animal's body mass increases
cubically while its surface area increases as a squared function.
D)
The amount of food and oxygen an animal requires and the amount of heat and waste it produces are
inversely proportional to its mass.
Answer: C
11)
An elephant and a mouse are both running in full sunlight, and both overheat by the same amount above their
normal body temperatures. When they move into the shade and rest, which animal will cool down faster?
A)
They will cool at the same rate because they overheated by the same amount.

C)
The elephant will because it has the higher surface area/volume ratio.
D)
The mouse will because it has the lower surface area/volume ratio.
Answer: D

What is the reason for this trend?
A)
The young of these animals are much more active than the adult.
B)
Relative to their volume, the young have more surface area across which they can transport all the oxygen
they need.
C)
The young have a higher basal metabolic rate.
D)
Relative to their surface area, the young have more volume in which they can store oxygen for long
periods of time.
Answer: B

If the Y chromosome is present, a region of the Y chromosome will begin expressing genes that start the process of masculinization of internal structures. This region is known as the ______________________________ region or ___________ for short. The expression of these genes causes the bipotential gonad to develop into the testes. Once the testes have started developing, two hormones, testosterone and Anti-MüllerianHormone are produced. Testosterone causes the _____________________ ducts to develop into the _____________________. Testosterone also causes the internal development of the __________________ and __________________.
