Compare and contrast the reactions of photosynthesis and cellular respiration.  Be sure to include the following information: a) definitions b) reactants and products for both reactions c) the overall equation for both reactions d) the organelle and its parts where each reaction takes place e) other important information f) at least one reason why each of these processes is important in Biology.

Imagine you are playing the role of one molecule of ATP. Starting at the very beginning, evaulate and describe the path that this ATP would need to pass through in order to move from where it is produced in a chloroplast into the cytoplasm of the cell. (Be sure to include specific membranes and other structures as you complete the path). 

Species A and B are two species of marine invertebrate animal. They are stationary and found in shallow water along the margins of lakes. Researchers examine the range of depths each species uses when they are growing on their own and when they are grown together. Their findings are shown below (dashed lines are each species growing on its own; solid lines are when they occur together. Larger numbers indicate deeper water. Based on the results shown in the graph, we can conclude that [a] is the stronger competitor because [b].

When do we typically see exponential growth in a population?

In a very deep temperate lake, turnover happens every spring and fall. As a result of climate change, turnover is decreasing. What impact would this be predicted to have on net primary productivity (NPP) in the lake?

Prairie dogs show altruistic behavior. A researcher finds that female prairie dogs tend to give alarm calls more often than males. Alarm calls put the individual making the call at risk, but benefit other prairie dogs in the area. Hamilton’s rule (Br > c) helps to explain altruistic behavior. Based on Hamilton’s rule, which of the following explanations is the most likely explanation for female prairie dogs giving alarm calls more often than males?

Why do greenhouse gases cause an increase in global temperatures and result in climate change?

The nurse is reviewing the coagulation profile of a client with a suspected bleeding disorder. Which statement best describes the fundamental difference between primary and secondary hemostasis?
