<p>I don’t remember for that one, but I’m almost positive I didn’t say anything about mutations, cause that answer choice didn’t make any sense. If its asexual, no gene mutations are going to occur, since codons are not being mismatched etc. during crossover, since its asexual!</p>
<p>They cited wikipedia as their source. </p>

“However, there is also a significantly reduced chance of mutation or other complications that can result from the mixing of genes.”</p>
<p>I still don’t get it. I don’t remember if I answered or skipped that one…</p>
<p>I said B was control. </p>
<p>It doubled from question to answer in the diploid/haploid question, so 36 I think.</p>
<p>Anyone else not understand the last experiment in M?:(</p>
<p>"Quote:
Oh yeah I thought of another one. The flower one about pollination and the pollen tube?
i forgot what i put for that one… what was it?</p>
<p>deff was not pollen tube and ovaries."</p>
<p>One choice said the ovary gets transferred or something, which is wrong (and therefore the right answer)</p>
<p>I think I got independent assortment and homozygous for the last 2 questions.</p>
<p>oh right, yeah I put ovaries, cause that is deff not transfered over.</p>
<p>The explanation said “assume assorted independently,” then the question asked “what can one assume?” and an answer choice was “independent assortment.”</p>
<p>I don’t know why they asked the question when they said it right before.</p>
<p>how does respiration/photosynthesis not show up more… were there even any question about photosynthesis? I only remember one about respiration.</p>
<p>The photosynthesis one = H20.</p>
<p>i think there was one about photosynthesis, i’m starting to forget everything from the test though. something about where does oxygen come from. answer was water lol</p>
<p>Yes, it was asking where oxygen came from. </p>
<p>Was an answer “sequence of amino acids?” I didn’t get that answer, but someone said that was the correct answer…</p>
<p>i put sequence of amino acids. it was talking about finding the evolutionary history. it was somewhat of a guess though. i wasnt 100 percent sure.</p>
<p>the very first molecular bio question (81) confused me. it was something like what cant we find out about this molecules formula C6H12O6? what was that answer.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>yeah it was ovaries. i almost did it too quickly and put uterus, but the egg starts growing in the ovaries.</p>
<p>thank you, national geographic, for doing a magazine about malaria. i think i might have gotten one of the malaria questions wrong though. i think i put that malaria was treatable with antibiotics, but is quinine an antibiotic? does anyone know?</p>
<p>That one was strep throat. </p>
<p>C6H12O6 was that you cannot tell the structure/placement of the elements (isomers). </p>
<p>The evolutionary history one was odd. I’m still not sure what it’s supposed to be.</p>
<p>i got one of those disease questions wrong, i put polio for some odd reason O.o
i put structure for the first M question too</p>
<p>so -1 as of right now, which I think is still an 800.</p>
<p>so quinine isnt an antibiotic? dang. i remember getting strep throat once when i was little, but not taking antibiotics because they didnt work, i think? or maybe it was just so i wouldnt be antibiotic resistant.</p>
<p>others i remember: DNA doesnt get broken down to RNA in digestion. a man gives his y chromosome to 100% of his sons. </p>
<p>what was the main storage molecule for plants?</p>
<p>Yeah that DNA doesn’t get broken down to RNA - I put the DNA is used to make proteins (idk if thats right) Also a man gives his Y chromosome to 100% of his sons. I was tempted to say half of his sons, but then I realized it wasn’t talking about sex-linked genes being passed, just Y chromosome in general.</p>
<p>starch?? I don’t remember a question asking that, although I do remember something about starch. </p>
<p>andrea, what did you put for the amniotic egg? There was a lot of controversy over that question during the last test administration. Still unresolved…</p>
<p>i put so it wont get dehydrated.</p>
<p>yeah there was something about “what is not a characteristic of plants?”, and an answer was “plants use starch as their main storage molecule.” but i thought that plants use cellulose, and we use glycogen. so i put that answer. but now i dont know if its right.</p>
<p>No, it’s starch. They have cellulose for the cell wall. </p>
<p>I also put so it won’t get dehydrated. Other people put yolk. This happened last time too. Grr, which one is it?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>is he right? i dont think i put that. i think i chose something with nutrients.</p>
<p><a href=“http://encarta.msn.com/media_461517464_761563418_-1_1/Amniotic_Egg.html[/url]”>http://encarta.msn.com/media_461517464_761563418_-1_1/Amniotic_Egg.html</a></p>
<p>It mentions not drying out. YAY! (although it mentioned the yolk, it’s not the main adaptation of the amniotic egg. THEREFORE we’re right. SCORE.)</p>
<p>I also put how old they are and cellular structures. I eliminated all the other choices.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>also, is that right? that doesnt seem right. a mutation that doesnt kill you could still be passed on.</p>
