The segregation that results in meiosis results in a: a. decrease in the total number of cells in the organism. b. reduction in the number of chromosomes per cell. c. single fertilized egg cell d. group of genetically identical cells 18. Which of these best describes the initial change caused by a DNA mutation? a. a change in the sequence of base pairs b. a change in the production of enzymes c. a change in the number of nucleosomes within a cell d. a change in the number of hydrogen bonds between the bases Rc1.test Reporting Category 1 : Cell Structure and Function Test 19. Loriciferans are microscopic multicellular animals that live in various marine sediments. Scientists have discovered genera of Loriciferans in a deep-­‐sea habitat that lacks oxygen. Before this discovery, some prokaryotes and some unicellular eukaryotes were known to inhabit anaerobic environments. Among the newly discovered Loriciferans is Spinoloricus sp. nov., which is pictured below. Scientists determined that organisms of the genus Spinoloricus were eukaryotes and not prokaryotes because Spinoloricus cells have — a. Flagella b. hereditary material c. cell walls d. nuclear membranes 20. Before a cell goes through either mitosis or meiosis, which process must be carried out by the DNA in the nucleus? a. replication b. nondisjunction c. transcription d. translation Rc1.test Reporting Category 1 : Cell Structure and Function Test Sources: http://tn.gov/education/assessment/doc/AYPEOCBIO1_PT.pdf
