Question

J, T Totel PPBductión, Biotechnology Evolution, Ecosystems & Biomes True/False Put a T for True and an F for False 1. In the scientific method, your conclusion must ALWAYS agree with your hypothesis. 2, A transfer of energy (potential to kinetic) is never 100% efficient. 3. A hydrophobic molecule dissolves easily in water 4. In a solution, the solvent is dissolved into the solute. 5. Plants and animals both undergo cellular respiration. 6. A genotype is the physical manifestation of the genes an organism contains. 7. Evolution is the change in the allele frequency within a population. 8, 97.5% of the Earth's water is drinkable (fresh water) 9. The burning of fossil fuels affects the balance of the carbon cycle. 10. Rising temperatures on earth mean that animals in the northern hemisphere will need to move 100s of miles south in order to remain in the environment they have evolved to handle 11. A new trait that is beneficial for reproduction will likely be passed on to many future generations 12. Taxonomy is the branch of science that studies the classification of organisms. 13. Acquired characteristics during one's lifetime are passed on to the next generation.

Explanation / Answer

1. Not really. So, False. A conclusion may differ from the hypothesis.

2. True.

3. A hydrophobic molecule dissolves easily in water. False. Hydrophobic means water repelling.

4. In a solution, the solvent is dissolved easily into the solute. False. Solute dissolves into the solvent.

5. Plants and animals both undergo cellular respiration. True. Means conversion of ADP to ATP.

6. A genotype is the physical manifestation of the genes an organism contains. False It should be phenotype not genotype.

7. Evolution is the change in the allele frequency within a population. True.

8. 97.5% of the Earth's water is drinkable(freshwater). False. It is salty about i.e. 97.5% and rest is fresh.

9. The burning of fossil fuels affects the balance of the carbon cycle. True. Increases CO2 into the atmosphere.

10. True.

11. True.

12. True. Taxonomy deals with the classification of organisms.

13. False. It takes place in somatic cells only like loss of tail of mouse cant be heritable.
