Answer the following question given this paragraph: Prokaryotic organisms reproduce asexually by binary fission , a process that produces identical offspring ( Figure below ). In asexual reproduction , a single parent produces genetically identical offspring. As prokaryotes do not have a nucleus, and have only one circular chromosome, they do not need to reproduce by the same mechanism as eukaryotic cells; mitosis does not exist in prokaryotic cells . Prokaryotic cell division is a much simpler process. In prokaryotic cell division, after the single chromosome is copied, the cell grows larger. Eventually the two chromosomes separate and move to opposite ends of the cell. Newly formed cell membrane then grows into the center of the cell, separating the two chromosomes, and forming two genetically identical daughter cells. Some eukaryotic organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, also divide by binary fission. Q: How do prokaryotic organisms reproduce asexually? Choices: - mitosis - residual fission - kinetic fission - binary fission A:
(Answer)
binary fission

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Blood pressure occurs when circulating blood puts pressure on the walls of blood vessels. Q: What is caused when circulating blood puts pressure on the walls of blood vessels? Choices: - aneurysm - atherosclerosis - high cholesterol - blood pressure A:

blood pressure

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Digestion and Absorption Digestion is the mechanical and chemical break down of food into small organic fragments. It is important to break down macromolecules into smaller fragments that are of suitable size for absorption across the digestive epithelium. Large, complex molecules of proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids must be reduced to simpler particles such as simple sugar before they can be absorbed by the digestive epithelial cells. Different organs play specific roles in the digestive process. Q: What process is used to chemically and mechanically break down the food you eat into smaller parts? Choices: - absorption - regression - filtration - digestion A:
(Answer)
digestion
