  1. MIDTERM REVIEW QUESTIONS HONORS BIOLOGY

  2. What is an ionic bond? • How does a hydrogen bond form? • Organize the following in the correct level of organization by increasing size: • Cell • Macromolecule • Ecosystem • Population • Atom • Community • Tissue • Organ system

  3. Describe the causes and biological relevance of the following properties of water: • High surface tension • High heat capacity • Ice is less dense than water • High cohesion and adhesion • Draw 4 connected water molecules and label their bonds. • Give an example of a biological process that produces water. • Give an example of a biological process that uses water.

  4. Describe the characteristics of acids • What is an indicator? Give an example. • Define what an organic substance is. • What is a monomer? What are the monomers of the following: • Carbohydrates • Simple lipids • Phospholipids • Proteins • Nucleic acids • What are the functions of the following: • Monosaccharides • Starch • Phospholipids • Define what an enzyme is.

  5. What is denaturation? What causes it? • What are the benefits and disadvantages of light microscopes? • What are the functions of the following organelles: • Microfilament • Rough ER • Smooth ER • Golgi apparatus • Draw the cell membrane and label its parts. • What kind of transport would be used for: • Moving a Mg ion from high to low concentration through a protein • Moving a sucrose from low to high concentration

  6. Compare and contrast plant cells and animal cell • Compare and contrast mitochondria and chloroplasts • List five functions of proteins. • Describe the primary and secondary structures of proteins • Draw and label the parts of the cell membrane • Define passive transport and list its types. • Describe through an example how active transport takes place. • What type of transport would a cell use to engulf a bacterium? • State the first law of thermodynamics

  7. What part of the microscope would be used to: • Hold the slide glass and cover slip • Provide the highest possible magnification • To control the amount of light that hits the specimen • To hold the slide glass on the microscope • State the purpose, location and parts of cellular respiration. • Explain why a H+ concentration difference is significant in cellular respiration and photosynthesis. • If a poison stops the enzyme that normally binds CO2 to RuBP during the Calvin cycle. What are the consequences of this change?
