Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.

A
Ribosome
B
Lysosome
C
Mitochondria
D
Nucleus
2) When a cell of a plant stem divides, each new cell has
A
half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
B
four times the number of chromosomes as the parent cell
C
the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
D
twice the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
3) Which of the following is the primary advantage of sexual reproduction when compared to asexual reproduction?
A
There is a longer development time for offspring.
B
There is greater genetic variety in offspring.
C
There is a greater number of offspring.
D
There is more food available to offspring.
4) Why does cell division in single-celled organisms such as amoeba and paramecium result in clones?
A
Because only recessive traits are passed on.
B
Because only dominant traits are passed on.
C
Because clones can only produce clones.
D

6) How are sexual and asexual reproduction different?

in asexual reproduction the offspring are identical to the parent, in sexual reproduction the offspring are unique
B
in sexual reproduction the offspring are diploid and in asexual reproduction the offspring are haploid
C
in asexual reproduction the offspring are diploid and in sexual reproduction the offspring are haploid
D
in sexual reproduction the offspring are identical to the parents, in asexual reproduction the offspring are unique
7) Which statement below best describes how an animal cell grows and divides?

B
cells absorb heat from the sun and use it to make their own food
C
cells absorb light and water and then grow larger and divide
D
cells take in needed materials which allow them to grow and divide
8) Which organism reproduces sexually?
A
strawberry plant putting out runners
B
a hydra budding
C
