CST Review Questions
Monday –Which of the following explains why natural selection acts on the phenotype of an organism
instead of its genotype?
A Phenotypes directly influence the interaction of an organism with its environment.
B Genotypes do not change except by the process of transcription.
C Genotypes change in direct response to habitat changes.
D Phenotypes can be inherited by offspring.
Explain
The inheritance of a trait in humans is best described as being determined by ________________
A a single allele.
B one or more pairs of alleles.
C one pair of chromosomes.
D the sex chromosomes of the offspring.
Explain
Tuesday - In pigeons, the allele for normal feathers (F) is dominant to the allele for frizzy feathers (f).
If a purebred, normal-feathered bird (FF) is crossed with a
frizzy-feathered bird (ff), how many different feather
phenotypes are possible in the offspring?
A 1
B 2
C 3
D 4
Explain
Which of the following processes allows the cells of an organism to use carbon from the environment?
A mitosis
B fertilization
C transpiration
D photosynthesis
Explain
Wednesday –
How is natural selection in the evolution of long necks in giraffes best explained?
A Shorter-necked giraffes were killed by long-necked giraffes.
B Giraffe necks grew longer because of the bone structure of the animals.
C Giraffes with longer necks survived because they were better suited to the environment.
D Long-necked giraffes mated only with other long-necked giraffes.

The nose is protected from pathogens by mucus
What are the major structures of the immune system? Skin, white blood cells and lymph nodes
Antibodies are produced by B cells.
Diseases can be caused by viruses.
After a virus is trapped by mucus in the nose, it is usually destroyed in the stomach
Transplanted organs that are rejected by the new body are destroyed by killer T cells.
The part of the pathogen that is remembered by the immune system is the antigen.
The HIV virus attacks helper T cells.
What is the function of the immune system? Protect against bacteria and viruses
An organism develops active immunity as a result of producing antibodies in response to a vaccination.
