Goal 1: Learner will develop abilities necessary to do and understand scientific inquiry.
1.01 Identify biological problems and questions that can be answered through scientific
investigations. KNOW your scentisits.
1.02 Design and conduct scientific investigations to answer biological questions (create testable
hypotheses, identify variables, use a control or comparison group when appropriate, select
and use appropriate measurement tools, collect and record data, organize data into charts and
graphs, analyze and interpret data, communicate findings).

Explain the importance of shape to enzyme function. Enzymes function by lock and key – each enzyme
has to fit the molecules that it joins together or breaks apart; if it does not fit, it cannot function.
Explain what determines the shape of an enzyme.
The order of the amino acids determines the secondary and tertiary levels of structure.
Explain why enzymes are specific. The specific substrate of an enzyme has the same shape as the active
site on the enzyme. The substrate and enzyme fit together like a lock and key.

How do you determine total magnification of a microscope? (Assume the eyepiece magnifies 10 x and
the objective magnifies 40 x) 10 times 40 = 400x
Draw how the letter “e” would look as view through a microscope? Upside down and reversed left to
right

Organ systems
__cells_____

Explain what has happened in the diagram to
the left. Water passed to right; starch could
not move through membrane – too large.
Why did the large dark molecules NOT
move to the left? Too large for membrane
pores
How is the semipermeable membrane like a
cell membrane? Cell membranes have pores
that selectively move materials in and out.
If the dark molecule is starch, where is the
starch concentration greatest (left or right)?
If the white molecule is water, where is the water concentration greatest at first? On left
In osmosis, water moves from an area of __high________ to an area of ______low___ concentration.

Meizoso Biology MIDTERM Review QUESTION WITH ANSWERS
If the dark molecules could move, in what direction would they move? From right to left Why? High
concentration is on right; low is on left and molecules move from high to low concentration.
In diffusion, molecules move from an area of ___high_____ to an area of __low______ concentration.
What is osmotic pressure? The difference between concentrations of molecules on each side of
membrane – greater the difference, the greater the osmotic pressure.
Draw arrows to show which way water will move in each of the following situations:
a. Salt inside the cell = 65% and outside the cell 40%.
----------------------------------------- (water moves into cell)
b. Sugar inside the cell 27% and outside 80%. --------------------(water moves out of cell)
What is homeostasis?
Regulation of internal environment; maintenance of balance and stability
How do cells maintain homeostasis: Consider pH, temperature, blood glucose, water balance
(negative feedback of hormone systems maintains homeostasis); insulin and glucagon work together to
maintain blood sugar; osmosis regulates water; temperature regulation through sweating,
shivering, blood vessels opening wide and becoming smaller; pH through buffers and H ions.

PASSIVE TRANPORT
NO
ACTIVE TRANSPORT
YES
High to Low

2.04 Investigate and describe the structure and function of enzymes and explain their importance
in biological systems.
What is the function of enzymes in biological systems? Why are they necessary for all biochemical
reactions? To speed up the combining or break down of substances; the reactions would be too slow to be
compatible with life.
Explain why enzymes can be reused over and over again.
Not changed by the reactions that they catalyze.
Why is there only one kind of enzyme for each biochemical reaction?
Enzymes function by shape (lock and key) so there is just one enzyme for each type of reaction.
How do extreme pH and extreme temperature affect enzymes?
Extremes in pH or temperature can alter the secondary and tertiary bonds of a protein; altered shape
means altered function. The enzyme is denatured.
Explain the lock-and-key model of enzymes and substrates. The substrate fits the enzyme like a lock fits
a key; there is an active site where the substrate fits into the enzyme.
