All corn plants contain the ZmLA1 gene. Some corn plants contain a certain mutation in the ZmLA1 gene. The graph below shows the amount of ZmLA1 RNA produced in plants with the normal gene and in plants with the mutated gene.

Based on the graph, what most likely happens in corn plant cells as a direct result of the mutated gene?

DNA replication increases.

Lipid production decreases

Glucose synthesis increases.

Protein production decreases.

Which of the following types of cells is a direct product of meiosis?

egg

muscle

nerve

skin

Which process is directly responsible for the formation of new root cells as a plant grows larger?

meiosis

mitosis

nitrogen fixation

osmosis

Strawberry plants can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Strawberry farmers use both kinds of reproduction, depending on the desired outcome.

In which of the following situations would a farmer most likely want the strawberry plants to reproduce sexually?

when developing new varieties of fruit

when making identical copies of a plant

when producing fruit that is all the same size

when growing many new plants from cuttings

A biological process is represented in the diagram. Which of the following concepts is BEST illustrated by the diagram?

crossing over creates new genetic diversity in gametes

mitosis increases the number of chromosomes in zygote cells

in asexual reproduction, the offspring produced are genetically identical to the parent

in sexual reproduction, the offspring receive the same number of chromosomes from each parent

An egg cell in a gorilla contains 24 chromosomes. When the egg cell is fertilized, which of the following occurs?

The 24 original chromosomes replicate, resulting in 48 chromosomes in the fertilized egg.

The 24 original chromosomes split at the centromere, resulting in 48 chromosomes in the fertilized egg.

The nucleus of a sperm cell fuses with the nucleus of the original egg cell, resulting in 48 chromosomes in the fertilized egg.

The nucleus of another egg cell pairs with the nucleus of the original egg cell, resulting in 48       chromosomes in the fertilized egg

The cell cycle consists of two parts. During __________ the cell grows and replicates its DNA. During __________ the nucleus divides and two identical cells are made.
