Botany Test

Subject : science
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Three generations of gymnosperms






2. What is a final product of aerobic respiration?






3. What is NOT a product of the krebs cycle?






4. What are beneficial products made from bacteria?






5. Cladifils- modified stems that look like leaves - all parts are photosynthetic

6. What phenomena explains how a photon can strike any chlorophyll molecule in the antennal complex and still reach the reaction center?






7. What is a function of the epidermis?






8. How does DNA replication take place?






9. Lives in dry - hot/cold - windy places - has fuzzy hairs to distance wind from the leaves






10. Heating up bacteria until it is harmless and cannot function.






11. Info. carrying molecule - single stranded






12. Info. carrying molecule - single stranded






13. What structure is MOST important in generating root pressure?






14. What hormone is most important in the ripening of fruits?






15. What type of RNA has an anticodon?






16. What pigment absorbs energy and can emit an electron in photosynthesis?






17. Lives in dry - hot/cold - windy places - has fuzzy hairs to distance wind from the leaves






18. Heating up bacteria until it is harmless and cannot function.






19. What BEST describes plant hormones?






20. During which phase of the cell cycle does DNA replication occur?






21. Seeds are not protected by fruit and they do not have flowers - do not have shell around seeds - reproduce by releasing pollen into the air to make available to the ovule in the megaspores - causing fertilization






22. Cladifils- modified stems that look like leaves - all parts are photosynthetic

23. What process involves the movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane?






24. What hormone is most important in the ripening of fruits?






25. What is a function of the epidermis?






26. Where in a dicot leaf does the majority of photosynthesis occur?






27. Differences in type and location of human-managed ecosystems - quantity and quality of available drinking water and air may also be affected by rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide






28. What is a reactant in the photochemical reactions of photosynthesis?






29. Vascular and seed bearing






30. During which phase of mitosis do the sister chromatids separate?






31. What pigment absorbs energy and can emit an electron in photosynthesis?






32. What is a final product of glycolysis?






33. Southern US - prop roots hold it in place as water moves out - it can breathe under water.






34. If an ovule is fertilized - what will it develop into?






35. Where in the chloroplast do protons accumulate - resulting in an electrochemical gradient which drives ATP-synthase?






36. What is NOT a product of the krebs cycle?






37. What is the main function of the roots of a corn plant?






38. How is algae different from 'true' plants?






39. What cell undergoes meiosis?






40. Which part of aerobic respiration results in the production of CO2?






41. What is a reactant in the photochemical reactions of photosynthesis?






42. How are the vascular bundles of a dicot arranged in the stem?






43. What pigment is responsible for plants sensing day length?






44. Bugs crawl into 'pitchers' - tiny hairs keep them from getting out - plant breaks down enzymes - and uses nitrogen. lives in places where nitrogen is limited.






45. In what part of a flower is pollen produced?






46. Transferring of the information from the DNA into the language of the mRNA.






47. What cellular processes generate short carbon chains or skeletons which plants use to assemble amino acids and lipids?






48. Have a cell wall - no membrane - and no nucleus






49. Where in the chloroplast do protons accumulate - resulting in an electrochemical gradient which drives ATP-synthase?






50. Don't have roots or leaves - and are not producers - do not photosynthesize - and have cell walls made out of chitlin.
