31. Wood frogs freeze solid during the winter and then thaw in the spring. As the freezing progresses, blood circulation stops, which means that cells are not being served by the circulatory system. How would you expect these cells to produce ATP during this time, and what by-product would you expect to build up in these cells? (A) aerobic respiration and CO2 (B) fermentation and lactate (C) fermentation and alcohol (D) photosynthesis and O2

32. Which statement regarding the flow of genetic information is FALSE? (A) Polypeptides form proteins that determine the appearance and function of the cell and organism. (B) Eukaryotic mRNA is processed in several ways before export out of the nucleus. (C) Transcription occurs in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. (D) Ribosomes function as factories that coordinate the functioning of mRNA and tRNA.

33. Uplift and formation of a mountain range divide a freshwater snail species into two isolated populations. Erosion eventually lowers the mountain range and brings the two populations together again, but when they mate, the resulting hybrids all produce sterile young, This scenario is an example of (A) sympatric speciation. (B) allopatric speciation. (C) incomplete speciation. (D) diversifying speciation.

35. Which statement best describes the current scientific view of birds? (A) a group of feathered, endothermic dinosaurs (B) a group of feathered, ectothermic lizards that lack teeth (C) a group of flying, endothermic reptiles that have lost teeth, the amniotic. egg, and other beavy body features as an adaptation for flight (D) a group of flying mammals that are derived from monotremes, which also lay amniotic eggs

36. Which statement about blood pressure is FALSE? (A) Normal blood pressure for adult humans is usually at or below 120/80. (B) Hypertension is defined as persistent systolic pressure above 120 and/or diastolic above 80. (C) High blood pressure can lead to an enlarged and weakened heart, increased risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney failure. (D) The higher number in a blood pressure reading measures the force of a heart contraction.

37. What occurs during gastrulation? (A) A solid embryo is changed into a hollow morula. (B) A solid blastula is changed into a hollow embryo with a dorsal nerve cord. (C) A hollow blastula is changed into a hollow embryo that has three tissue layers. (D) A neural tube is created by invagination of the ectoderm.

38. When a nursery worker pinches off the terminal buds on a young plant to make it grow bushy, which plant hormone, when produced, is mainly responsible for growth of side branches? (A) an auxin (B) a gibberellin (C) a cytokinin (D) abscisic acid (ABA)

39. Non-native species, such as cats and dogs in Taiwan, that are introduced to new environments, spread far beyond the original point of introduction, and cause damage are called (A) predators. (B) pets. (C) invasive species. (D) pathogens.

40. Global warming is a phenomenon in which global temperate is increasing as a result of increasing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. Scientists believe that the Earth can tolerate X-Y degree Celsius temperature increase before it passes the point of no return and moves into a positive feedback loop. "X-Y" should be (A) 1-2 (B) 3-4 (C) 5-6 (D) 7-8
