BIO202 SAMPLE TERM TEST 1 MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION BOOKLET October 16, 2022 FORM A, WHITE MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS (20 points). Use the multiple choice booklet to read questions in this section. Choose the one alternative that BEST completes the statement or answers the question. FILL IN YOUR RESPONSES (A-E) for QUESTIONS 1-20 on the last page of the Crowdmark booklet. Use a PEN to bubble in your answer choices. 1. Which of the following statements is not true? A. Animals living in terrestrial environments have more suspended nutrients available to them than animals living in marine environments. B. Animals living in terrestrial environments have more oxygen available to them than animals living in aquatic environments. C. Animals living in terrestrial environments have less body support than animals living in marine environments. D. Animals living in terrestrial environments are more prone to desiccation than animals living in freshwater environments. E. Animals living in terrestrial environments have more light available to them than animals living in freshwater environments. 2. Congratulations, you have just found this new specimen of fossil Tribrachidium in the Ediacara fossil hills of Australia (see the image below)! You found it in rocks that represent past marine environments and it is only about 1 cm in size. You also know that Tribrachidium is one of the earliest animals (about 550 million years old) and that it was probably obtaining nutrients through suspension feeding (feeding through its surface). Which of the following statements about the possible physical challenges and limitations are not true about the Tribrachidium fossil you just found? (Photo credit: Aleksey Nagovitsyn) A. Tribrachidium may have had issues with losing body heat. B. Tribrachidium may have had issues with obtaining oxygen in the marine environments. C. Tribrachidium may have had issues obtaining nutrients. D. All of the statements are correct. E. None of the statements are correct. 3. If an animal doubles in size, its surface to volume ratio __________. A. doubles B. increases C. triples D. decreases E. reduces by a quarter BIO202_Sample Term Test 1_Form A_MCQ Booklet Page of 5 1
4. If temperature is regulated internally in the body, which of of the following happens in response to increasing body temperature? A. The body temperature stays the same. B. The body temperature increase further. C. The body temperature decreases. D. Shivering is initiated. E. Sweating stops. 5. Sensor in a negative feedback loop can be _____________. A. temperature B. a sweat gland C. a body receptor D. a muscle E. a regulatory centre in the brain 6.

What is wrong with the image illustrating counter-current flow across the gills below? A. Direction of water flow indicated by the single thick black arrow through the secondary lamella B. The entrance point of oxygen-rich blood into secondary lamella C. The label for the secondary lamella D. Direction of blood flow indicated by white arrows through the secondary lamella E. All the information on the label is correct. 8. Why is the image above wrong as you indicated in the previous question? A. The water flows con-currently to blood. B. The blood that first reaches the secondary lamellae is poor in oxygen, not rich in oxygen. C. The structure shown is the gill lamella. D. The blood flows con-currently to water. E. All the information was correct as I already indicated in my answer to question 7. 9. Which of the following statements about the human respiratory system is not true? A. When we breathe in, air travels from the pharynx to the trachea. B. The bronchioles branch into bronchi. C. Alveolar ducts connect to alveolar sacs. D. Gas exchange between the air in the lungs and blood takes place in the alveolus. E. All of the statements are equally false. BIO202_Sample Term Test 1_Form A_MCQ Booklet Page of 5 2
10. Fick’s equation describes a diffusion efficiency rate. Out of the variables in this equation, which one can be contributed solely to the properties of the physical environment? A. Volume B. Surface area C. Partial pressure difference of gases D. Diffusion coefficient E. All of the above. 11. The figure below represents the oxygen dissociation curve.

Blood in the pulmonary vein (the blood vessel carrying the blood from the lung to the heart) is deoxygenated. B. Blood in the vena cava (the major blood vessel carrying blood from the body to the heart) is deoxygenated. C. Blood in the pulmonary artery (the blood vessel carrying the blood from the heart to the lungs) is deoxygenated. D. Blood in the aorta (the major blood vessel carrying blood from the heart to the body) is oxygenated. E. The respiratory pigment carrying the blood in the blood is hemoglobin. 13. Which of the following blood vessels has the largest cross-sectional area? A. aorta B. vena cava C. capillary D. vein E. artery 14. ________________ conform to ion concentrations in the environment.
