Biology Final Exam Review Sheet – AcademicThe biology final exam consists of 50 multiple choice questions. The questions are grouped into categories. The categories and questions may not appear in the order they were taught in class. Categories include: molecules of life, cell physiology, cell energy, genetics, embryology, and microbiology. The exam makes up 10% of your overall grade. It is very important that you take the final exam seriously! Studying is not an option, it is required. Portions of this review sheet will be due throughout the next week. To get full credit for the review you must answer the questions on a separate piece of paper. It must be handwritten. Write out detailed answers. Your answers do not have to be in sentences, but they do have to be detailed or you won’t receive full credit! Use your notes and the textbook to answer the questions. When you turn in the questions on the due dates you must turn in this paper. I will record your grade in the checked column on the timeline below. On the last day I will add up all of your daily grades to calculate your final grade on this assignment. On the final day, when grades are recorded, you must have ALL sections. If any sections have been lost then points will be deducted. The answers to this review sheet WILL NOT be accepted after the last unit is due. It is very important that you have the review packet with you and completed on time!!SectionQuestionsUnitWhere is it in my textbook?Due DatePoints valuePoints earned11-12BiochemistryChapter 25213-23Cell PhysiologyChapter 75324-31Cell EnergyChapters 8,95432-42GeneticsChapters 10, 125543-51GeneticsChapters 11, 165652-58Embryology39-3, 39-4after keystones5759-67MicrobiologyChapter 19after keystones5All complete on time (extra credit)+5Total Points Earned35Unit 1 – Molecules of Life (biochemistry)All organic compounds contain what element?

Which one produces more ATP?Unit 4 – Genetics (includes information from: cell division, DNA & protein synthesis, and genetics unit)What is the cell cycle? What are the phases of the cell cycle?What happens during each of these phases?If a skin cell of an animal had 52 chromosomes, how many chromosomes would be in an egg cell from this species? Make a chart comparing mitosis and meiosisHow many cells are produced by each? Are they identical to the parent or different?Which types of cells, in the human body, are produced by each of the processes?48006008953500What are the phases of mitosis?
