Question 3

What are (is)the main factor(s)causing differences between the chick hatch weight and the weight of the egg when it is laid?

Accepted Answer

A) The only factor that causes the chick to weigh less than the egg when it is laid is the removal of the shell. 
B) Not only does the hatchling have no shell,but it has lost some of its mass (weight)to the air during development. 
C) During development,the chick gains new parts so the weight increases. 
D) Egg weight at oviposition includes a lot of water that evaporates during development.

Question 4

Some friends are trying to make wine in their basement.They've added yeast to a sweet grape juice mixture and have allowed the yeast to grow.After several days,they find that sugar levels in the grape juice have dropped,but there's no alcohol in the mixture.The most likely explanation is that ________.

Accepted Answer

A) the mixture needs more sugar; yeast need a lot of energy before they can begin to produce alcohol 
B) the mixture needs less oxygen; yeast only produce alcohol in the absence of oxygen 
C) the mixture needs more oxygen; yeast need oxygen to break down sugar to produce alcohol 
D) the mixture needs less sugar; high sugar concentrations stimulate cellular respiration,and alcohol is not a by-product of cellular respiration 
A) the mixture needs more sugar; yeast need a lot of energy before they can begin to produce alcohol
