Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: We now know how variation in traits is inherited. Variation in traits is controlled by different alleles for genes. Alleles, in turn, are passed to gametes and then to offspring. Evolution occurs because of changes in alleles over time. How long a time? That depends on the time scale of evolution you consider. Q: Evolution occurs because of changes in what over time? Choices: - mitochondria - genomes - atoms - alleles A:
Answer: alleles

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: What coenzyme is used in the transfer of energy in muscles? Choices: - carbolic acid - hydrofluoric acid - glycogen - atp or adenozine triphosphate A:
Answer: atp or adenozine triphosphate

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Another barrier is the saliva in the mouth, which is rich in lysozymean enzyme that destroys bacteria by digesting their cell walls. The acidic environment of the stomach, which is fatal to many pathogens, is also a barrier. Additionally, the mucus layer of the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract, reproductive tract, eyes, ears, and nose traps both microbes and debris, and facilitates their removal. In the case of the upper respiratory tract, ciliated epithelial cells move potentially contaminated mucus upwards to the mouth, where it is then swallowed into the digestive tract, ending up in the harsh acidic environment of the stomach. Considering how often you breathe compared to how often you eat or perform other activities that expose you to pathogens, it is not surprising that multiple barrier mechanisms have evolved to work in concert to protect this vital area. Q: How does lysozyme destroy bacteria? Choices: - by antibiotic use - by eating them - by paralyzing them - by digesting their cell walls A:
Answer:
by digesting their cell walls
