Test Description: NYS Labs Review 1. Diffusion Through a Membrane, Beaks of Finches.
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) Facilitated diffusion allows certain kinds of compounds that are normally blocked by the cell membrane to cross the cell membrane. All of the following are examples of compounds that move by facilitated diffusion except
A
water
B
sodium
C
potassium
D
glucose
2) The diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane, such as the plasma membrane
A
mitosis
B
active transport
C
osmosis
D
cytokinesis
3) Facilitated diffusion move substances across the membrane with the aid of:
A
Cholesterol
B
Nothing
C
Vesicles
D
Membrane proteins
4) Which substances may pass through a cell membrane by simple diffusion?
A
starch and protein
B
carbon dioxide and starch
C
protein and fat
D
carbon dioxide and water
5) What direction do solutions always move across a semi-permeable membrane during diffusion?
A
Inside the cell to outside the cell
B
Outside the cell to inside the cell
C
Low concentration to high concentration
D
High concentration to low concentration
6) The movement of particles through proteins in the cell membrane against the normal direction of diffusion is called ___.
A
passive transport
B
osmosis
C
diffusion
D
active transport
7) During diffusion, when the concentration of molecules on both sides of a membrane is the same, the molecules will ___.
A
move across the membrane to the outside of the cell.
B
continue to move across the membrane in both directions
C
move across the membrane to the inside of the cell
D
stop moving across the membrane
8) The diffusion of particles through proteins in the cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration is called __.
A
passive transport
B
diffusion
C
osmosis
D
active transport
9) What materials does diffusion, osmosis, and facilitated diffusion move?
A
diffusion-oxygen/CO2; osmosis-water, facilitated- large and charge (glucose/ions)
B
they use cell membrane sacs (vesicles) to bring in large moleucles
C
diffusion-water, osmosis- carbon dioxide, facilitated diffusion-small and nonpolar
D
diffusion and osmosis move water; facilitated diffusion- large and charge

an environmental stimulus
B
an organ system
C
a biological adaptation

a feedback system
11) Some Galapagos finches have heavy, strong beaks, while others have small pointed beaks. Which best explains the differences in their beaks?
A
There are different foods available where the birds live.
B
The climate is different for these birds
C
There are different predators where the birds live
D
The beak allows them to attract a suitable mate
12) Charles Darwin observed the finches on the Galapagos island and noticed that each species was well suited to the life it led due to the size and shapes of its beaks. Beak shape and size in these finches is an example of —
A
Simulation
B
Adaptation

had been created by design that way.
B
all had a common ancestor.
C
ate the same diet.
D
were descended from birds in Africa.
14) The different beaks Darwin observed in the finches were probably NOT caused by...
A
asexual reproduction

genetic mutations
C
variations in the genetic code
D
the finches' adaptations to the environment

A
Pointed
B
Medium
C
Short
D
Long
16) Which part of the Beaks of Finches lab activity was changed in order to simulate the different conditions on various islands?
A
size of beak
B
type of seeds present
C
size of stomach container

type of beak

Finches with more colorful beaks had a greater chance to mate and produce offspring.
B
Finches with less colorful beaks were able to easily hide from predators.
C
Finches with smaller beaks were able to change their diet to eat soft fruits.
D
Finches with beaks that were able to eat the types of seeds that survived, were more likely able to survive and reproduce.

spearing fish
C
finding and eating insects

B
Both birds have the same offspring.
C
Both birds have the same type of nests.
