Options:
- (A) flowers
- (B) loose dirt
- (C) animals
- (D) leaves
- (E) loose soil
- (F) swamp vegetation
- (G) rotting trees
- (H) an organism's body
--
Let's think first: Slime molds are fungus-like protists commonly found on rotting logs and compost. Once the trees are cut, they become logs . Slime molds are fungus-like protists commonly found on rotting trees and compost.... So the answer is [(G)]

Trna and the ribosome work to produce:
Options:
- (A) A kernel
- (B) protein
- (C) food
- (D) Energy.
- (E) power
- (F) Joules
- (G) alleles
- (H) Energy
--
Let's think first: Molecules of tRNA bring amino acids to the ribosome in the correct sequence. Ribosome binding site, start and stop codons, protein coding sequence. Molecules of tRNA bring amino acids to the ribosome to create proteins.... So the answer is [(B)]

What has a characteristic life cycle that includes alternation of generations?
Options:
- (A) humans
- (B) leaves
- (C) Oak
- (D) dogs
- (E) Trees
- (F) cacti
- (G) amoeba
- (H) ferns
--
Let's think first: All plants have a characteristic life cycle that includes alternation of generations. All ferns are shade plants. Ferns have a characteristic life cycle that includes alternation of generations.... So the answer is [(H)]

Options:
- (A) Something that causes allergies
- (B) Leptospirosis
- (C) Localized damage
- (D) heat produced
- (E) deoxyribonucleic acid
- (F) Chemical energy
- (G) direct damage to the lungs
- (H) It helps them survive
--
Let's think first: Viruses contain DNA but not much else. DNA DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid. Viruses contain deosyribonucleic acid, but not much else.... So the answer is [(E)]

How do proteins leave the er?
Options:
- (A) aqueous solution
- (B) it's state
- (C) Veins and arteries.
- (D) Move to another area
- (E) allow growth
- (F) active transport
- (G) It expands
- (H) movement
--
Let's think first: Vesicle transport requires energy, so it is also a form of active transport. Proteins leave the ER in transport vesicles 5. Proteins leave the ER via active transport.... So the answer is [(F)]

Plant growth, biodiversity, and adaptations of land organisms is influenced by:
Options:
- (A) sun's heat
- (B) fossils
- (C) Greenhouse gasses
- (D) animals
- (E) global warming
- (F) the environment
- (G) Darwin
- (H) Greenhouse gases
--
Let's think first: Climate influences plant growth, biodiversity, and adaptations of land organisms. Global warming is a part of climate change. Global warming influences plant growth, biodiversity, and adaptations of land organisms.... So the answer is [(E)]
