Life Sciences TCAP Review

• A single parent produces a genetically identical offspring by sexual reproduction.

• A single parent produces a genetically identical offspring by asexual reproduction.

• A single parent produces an egg and sperm that combine to develop into an offspring.

• A single parent produces an egg that develps into an offspring without being fertilized.

• Mode 1 can produce offspring more rapidly than Mode 2.

• Mode 1 produces offspring identical to their parents.

• Mode 2 produes offspring identical to their parents.

• Mode 2 produces a zygote through the process of fertilization.

Which diagram most accurately displays the process of simple diffusion across a cell membrane?

• 
• 
• 
• 

Why does water (H20) cross the cell membrane without help, but sugar (C6H1206) requires special structures to cross the membrane?

• Sugar molecules are too large to enter by diffusion.

• Sugar molecules are too large to enter by osmosis.

• Water molecules are too small to enter by diffusion.

• Water molecules are too small to enter by osmosis.
