Final Exam Review Guide
*You should be studying ALL of your tests and benchmarks that you have. Most of
those questions will be very similar to questions on the final exam. Especially study your
most recent exam (Ecology).
*Answer all questions on separate paper.
1. Design an experiment to test what surface a tennis ball will bounce higher on.
Describe how you will do this. Also, make sure to include the following:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
State the problem for this experiment.
Give a hypothesis
Identify the independent variable
Identify the dependent variable
Give 3 things that should remain the same throughout (controlled
variables)
f) Give a conclusion to the experiment.
g) Do this experiment!! Make a bar graph on graph paper to show the results
of the experiment. Your bar graph needs the following:
1) A specific title
2) Titles for the X and Y axes
3) An appropriate scale and spacing
2. Draw and complete a punnett square for the following:
R = able to roll your tongue. Cross two hybrid (Rr) parents. What is the
probability that the offspring will not be able to roll their tongue?
Why do individuals that have Rr genotype express the same trait as those with RR
genotype?
3. Identify the following cell parts in the diagram on the back: Nucleus, Ribosome,
Chloroplast, Mitochondria, Cell Wall, Cell Membrane, Cytoplasm, Endoplasmic
Reticulum. Draw an arrow to the parts.
4. For each of the cell parts you identified in # 4, give the function of that part for
the cell.
5. What is the name of the process represented by the diagram below?
6. What is the following diagram showing?
12. In labs, get the slide from me with blood cells on it. Also, get a clear plastic ruler.
A) Figure out what the size of the field of view is under low power by putting the
clear plastic ruler on the stage.
Write answer here:
mm
B) Then, divide that number by 100 (move the decimal point 3 places to the left) to
figure out what the field of view is under high power.
Write answer here:
mm
C) Draw the blood cells under low power and high power. Label the nucleus,
cytoplasm, and cell membrane in one of the cells under high power
D) Determine the size of one blood cell under high power. Divide the field of view
size by the number that fit across. You may use a calculator Show all your work
below:
13. Figure out the size of one of the plant cells in the diagram below if the field of view
size is 1000 micrometers. Show all work below:
14. Explain how animals and plants recycle 2 important gases in nature through the
processes of photosynthesis and respiration. Name the gases and explain the processes
involved.
15. Get the bag of plastic bugs from me. Also get a “Yes” or “NO” answer question to
sheet from me. Ask 3 different questions to break the plastic bugs into 4 groups. Use
only observable characteristics—remember that they are PLASTIC!
The bugs are: bee, ant, spider, dragonfly, fly, grasshopper
16. Put the following in order from most basic to most complex: Organelle, tissue,
organ, organ system, cell, organism
17. Give two examples of tissues and two examples of organs.
18. What part of a plant does sexual reproduction happen? What part of a plant does
photosynthesis happen?
19.
What
process
does
this
diagram
How many of the organisms in the diagram became extinct?
20. In fossil layer diagrams like the one below, which are the oldest fossils?
show?
21. What is the function of the cotyledon for the bean seed? Why is the cotyledon not
needed once the bean plant matures?
22. What body system does the following jobs?
A)
B)
C)
D)
E)
F)
G)
H)
Coordinates the muscular and skeletal systems
Breaks down food
Gets rid of waste
Fights infections
Transports oxygen through blood
Collects oxygen from the air
Produces hormones
Controls sex
23. Draw a diagram showing the process of fertilization. Label the two sex cells. What
process happens when the zygote turns into an embryo? Draw this and label it.
24. Complete a punnett square showing a cross between somebody who has blood type
AO and somebody with blood type BO. List the probabilities of each of the four blood
types (A, O, AB, B)
