Complete question 22 on the separate piece of paper provided
Make sure to show your work.

Sometimes a hypothesis is not supported. Yet, scientists consider the findings valuable. State one reason scientists would value an experiment that does not support the initial hypothesis.

Two biological processes that occur in certain organelles are represented in the diagrams below.

Which statement is correct regarding the types of organisms able to carry out these processes?

Most of the reactions by which energy from carbohydrates is released for use by the cell take place within the:

The diagram shows how ATP is used by some cell structures to perform various functions.

Which cell structure is represented by B ?

The diagram represents a sugar cube being dropped into an undisturbed beaker of water at room temperature. One sugar molecule is labeled.

Which diagram below represents the distribution of sugar molecules in the water a day later?

As blood glucose levels increase, hormones are released to return glucose levels to normal. This is an example of:

An enzyme that rapidly breaks down a protein molecule in the stomach may break down that same protein much more slowly in the small intestine or mouth because:

Which statement describes a failure of homeostasis in humans?

The diagram below represents two processes that occur in some living organisms.

X most likely represents:

Which biological process is represented in the diagram below?

The diagram below shows specialized plant cells that control openings called stomates.

The proper function of these cells is vital to the survival of the plant because they regulate the:

The diagram below represents a portion of a cell membrane.

The arrow indicates that the cell membrane is carrying out the process of:

The structural formulas shown below represent parts of two different complex carbohydrate molecules composed of glucose subunits. Molecules 1 and 2 differ in their overall structure.

Due to the differences in structure, each of these molecules most likely:

A red blood cell placed in distilled water will swell and burst due to the diffusion of:

Research has shown that treadmill training increases the number of certain energy-releasing structures in the brain cells of rats.

The cellular structures referred to in this study are most likely:

Cyanide is a poison that limits the ability of an animal cell to manufacture ATP. In a cell containing a small amount of cyanide, which process would be least affected?

The diagram below represents a cell in the human body.

Which statement concerning the structures within this cell is accurate?

According to the graph, which statement is true concerning the growth of the plants?

The dependent variable for this experiment was:

Which choice represents a possible hypothesis for Marshall’s experiment?
