7th grade (chapter 8) practice test questions
Section 1
Section 2
Section 3 (not question 3)
Section 4
Standardized test practice (not question 3, question 2 is incorrectly written... it doesn't label the cell wall)
Review Quiz (not 8, 13)
We have also worked with the microscopes. Be prepared to identify the related items that were frequently mentioned (revolving nosepiece, stage, coarse adjustment knob, fine adjustment knob, high-power objective, low-power objective).
I would suggest completing the Chapter 8 review on page 240 in your book...
The answers for Q 11-15, 17-21, 24, 26, & 29
11.D
12.D
13. A
14.A
15.D
17. B
18. D
19. C
20. C
21. A couple of the following items shoudl be thought about... a bird is made up of cells, it uses energy (to fly/move), it breathes, reponds to the environment, reproduces, has a life-span, and maintains a constant body temperature.
24. Once a virus infects a cell it uses the cell to make more viruses. No drugs kill viruses (they aren't living), so your immune system has to work to get rid of viruses (if that is possible... your body can't get rid of the HIV/AIDS virus)
26. circular muscle cell, small intestine, digestive system, human
29. prokaryotic cells don't have organelles (such as a nucleus, or chloroplasts, or mitochondria, etc). A plant cell has a cell wall, chloroplasts. Animal cells have neither the cell wall or chloroplasts.
