(1) They both occur in chloroplasts. (2) They both require sunlight. (3) They both involve organic and inorganic molecules. (4) They both require oxygen and produce carbon dioxide.

2 4 Which substance is the most direct source of the energy that an animal cell uses for the synthesis of materials? (1) ATP (3) DNA (2) glucose (4) starch 5 A food chain is represented below. This food chain contains (1) 4 consumers and no producers (2) 1 predator, 1 parasite, and 2 producers (3) 2 carnivores and 2 herbivores (4) 2 predators, 1 herbivore, and 1 producer 6 A student performed an experiment to demonstrate that a plant needs chlorophyll for photosynthesis. He used plants that had green leaves with white areas. After exposing the plants to sunlight, he removed a leaf from each plant and processed the leaves to remove the chlorophyll. He then tested each leaf for the presence of starch. Starch was found in the area of the leaf that was green, and no starch was found in the area of the leaf that was white. He concluded that chlorophyll is necessary for photosynthesis. Which statement represents an assumption the student had to make in order to draw this conclusion? (1) Starch is synthesized from the glucose produced in the green areas of the leaf. (2) Starch is converted to chlorophyll in the green areas of the leaf. (3) The white areas of the leaf do not have cells. (4) The green areas of the leaf are heterotrophic.

(4) The organisms would probably survive because materials would cycle.

12 Base your answers to the following questions on the information below and on your knowledge of biology. The Control of Transpiration Plants normally lose water from openings (stomates) in their leaves. The water loss typically occurs during daylight hours when plants are exposed to the Sun. This water loss, known as transpiration, is both beneficial and harmful to plants. Scientists believe wind and high temperatures increase the rate of transpiration, but the size of each stomate opening can be regulated. Reducing the size of the openings during drought conditions may help reduce the dehydration and wilting that would otherwise occur. A leaf may lose more than its own weight in water each day. Transpiration also lowers the internal temperature of the leaf as water evaporates. On hot days, temperatures in the leaves may be from 3º to 15ºC cooler than the outside air. With stomates open, vital gases may be exchanged between the leaf tissues and the outside environment. Researchers have also found many plants that use another response when leaf temperatures rise. Special molecules known as heat shock proteins are produced by plant cells and help to hold enzymes in their functional shapes. 27 State one way transpiration is beneficial to plants. [1] 28 Identify two of the "vital gases" that are exchanged between leaf tissues and the outside environment. [1] and 29 Identify the specific leaf structures that regulate the opening and closing of stomates. [1] 30 Explain why it is important for plants to "hold enzymes in their functional shapes." [1]

13 31 Which phrase, if placed in box X, would correctly complete the flowchart shown below? (1) Increased use of starch in root cells (2) Increased concentration of glucose in leaf cells (3) Decreased ATP in root cells (4) Decreased concentration of oxygen in leaf cells 32 The leaves of a plant are dotted with openings known as stomata. When open, stomata allow the plant to exchange gases and allow moisture to evaporate, helping to draw water from the roots up into the plant. These activities help the plant to (1) produce light energy (2) maintain homeostasis (3) decompose organic matter (4) synthesize minerals
