1 Name Date ID Biology (2) Interim Assessment First Grading Period Use this chart to answer questions 1 and In the above graph, line A represents a mechanism of living organisms called adaptations. stimulus. response. homeostasis. 2. Which line in the above graph best shows human's response to an increase in environmental temperature? line A line B line C line D Biology (2) Interim Assessment (1) Page 1

2 3. From the following compounds, select the one most like fructose in structure. glycogen sucrose glucose cellulose 4. From the following choices, identify the three major elements found in carbohydrates. carbon, hydrogen and phosphorous carbon, hydrogen and oxygen carbon, oxygen and phosphorous carbon, nitrogen and oxygen 5. Suppose a cell lost its supply of sugar, and the ability to make its own simple sugar. Which of the following macromolecules could the cell no longer make? fructose amino acids carbohydrates lipids 6. If an enzyme can no longer bind to its substrate, chances are that a change has occured in or on the substrate's active site. inhibitor. double band. first carbon.

3 7. When the concentration of an enzyme decreases, the rate of the reaction on the substrate increases. neutralizes. decreases. remains constant. 8. Unlike a prokaryote, a virus has DNA or RNA. a cell membrane or cell wall. pseudopods or flagella. vacuoles or ribosomes. 9. Infecting an organism with a weakened form of a virus is called transference. vaccination. genetic engineering. duplication. 10. One of the characteristics which distinguishes a prokaryote from a eukaryote is a prokaryote lacks ribosomes. DNA. cell walls. a nucleus. 11. What type of pathogen causes HIV/AIDS? virus fungus prokaryote bacteria Biology (2) Interim Assessment (1) Page 3

4 12. In the past, bacterial illness was a major limiting factor in human population growth. What was the key factor in diminishing this effect? vaccinations antibiotics antiseptics sterilization 13. Although many bacteria are harmful to human life, some are beneficial. Some species of bacteria convert gaseous free nitrogen into a form of nitrogen which can be used by living organisms. This conversion process is known as nitrogen relocation. reduction. fermentation. fixation. 14. Which of the following cell parts has the same function as the stomach? cytoplasm golgi apparatus endoplasmic reticulum lysosome 15. Which structures would be found in a Live Oak tree and not a human? lysosomes and mitochondria chloroplasts and cell walls ribosomes and cell membranes nuclei and cell membranes Biology (2) Interim Assessment (1) Page 4

This type tissue is known as tissue. reproductive supportive prothallus vascular 17. Which structure produces pollen? pistal ovary anther sepal 18. What two parts of the flower are like the sperm and egg of an animal? pistil and stamen stigma and style anther and pistil ovule and pollen grain Biology (2) Interim Assessment (1) Page 5

A virus living inside the cells of an animal and making it ill. A virus living inside a bacteria and destroying the bacteria. A bacteria living on a wood log and decomposing the bark. A bacteria living in an animal's digestive tract and producing vitamins. Read the article Protection from Disease to answer questions 21, 22, 23 and The title that best summarizes this article is A. The Role of Passive Immunity in Disease Prevention. B. Stopping Disease with the use of Active Immunity. C. Antibodies Prevent the Spread of Disease in Animals. D. The Role of Antigen-Antibody Process in Immunization. 22. Passive immunity is best used when A. immunization needs to last for years effectively. B. active immunity will not have time to be effective. C. acquired immunity has time to build in the organism. D. bacteria is the cause of the infection. Biology (2) Interim Assessment (1) Page 6

D. bacterial infections with viral infections. 24. Active immunization A. creates acquired immunity under controlled circumstances. B. is achieved by injecting artificial antibodies in the patient. C. originates in organisms with the antibodies present. D. is not an effective treatment for common diseases. Biology (2) Interim Assessment (1) Page 7
