Life Science
41. Which of the following is the control center of the cell, where
genetic material is stored and used for peptide synthesis?

A. nucleolus
B. nuclear membrane
C. nucleus
D. cytosol
 The nucleus is the control center of the cell and houses all of the cell’s genetic information.
 Nucleolus - An area inside the nucleus of a cell that is made up of RNA and proteins and is where ribosomes
are made.
 The nuclear membrane is a double layer that encloses the cell's nucleus, where the chromosomes reside.
 The cytosol contains dissolved nutrients, helps break down waste products, and moves material around the
cell.
42. It is referred to plants ability to make their own food.

A. Autotrophs
B. Vegetarians
C. Heterotrophs
D. Autosomes
 Autotrophs - are known as producers because they are able to make
their own food from raw materials and energy.
 Heterotrophs - are known as consumers because they consume
producers or other consumers.
43. The green pigment in a plant is called

A. chloroplast
B. chlorine
C. chlorophyll
D. mitochondria
 Chloroplasts - are plant cell organelles that convert light energy into relatively stable chemical energy via
the photosynthetic process.
 Chlorophyll - is the natural compound present in green plants that gives them their color.
 Mitochondria - are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the
chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions.
44. Which is the correct sequence – from biggest to smallest – of the
levels of organization in an organism?

A. Cell, Organ, Organ System, Tissue


B. Organ, Organ System, Tissue, Cell
C. Tissue, Cell, Organ, Organ System
D. Organ System, Organ, Tissue, Cell
45. The characteristic of a living organism that responds to the
stimuli is known as

A. growth
B. metabolize
C. reaction / sensitivity
D. movement
46. The first photosynthetic organism in the evolution of life is

A. Protozoans
B. Ferns
C. Cyanobacteria
D. Prokaryotic bacteria
 Protozoa are one-celled animals found worldwide in most habitats. Most species are free living, but all
higher animals are infected with one or more species of protozoa.
 Fern, (class Polypodiopsida), class of nonflowering vascular plants that possess true roots, stems, and
complex leaves and that reproduce by spores.
 Cyanobacteria (also called blue-green algae) are an ancient group of photosynthetic microbes that occur in
most inland waters and that can have major effects on the water quality and functioning of aquatic
ecosystems.
 Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms belonging to the domains Bacteria and Archaea. Prokaryotic cells
are much smaller than eukaryotic cells, have no nucleus, and lack organelles
47. The opposite reaction of Photosynthesis is

A. respiration
B. cellular respiration
C. perspiration
D. urination
48. Which is an example of asexual reproduction?

A. menstruation
B. fertilization
C. layering
D. pollination
49. What part of the digestive system where mechanical digestion
happens?

A. rectum
B. stomach
C. mouth
D. esophagus
50. Which of the following protects the body from infection?

A. muscle
B. heart
C. skin
D. lungs
