Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line

Consider the energy budgets for a human, an elephant, a penguin, a mouse, and a snake. The __________ would have the highest total annual energy expenditure, and the __________ would have the highest energy expenditure per unit mass.
A)elephant; mouse
B)penguin; mouse
C)mouse; snake

Compared with a smaller cell, a larger cell of the same shape has
A)less surface area.
B)a smaller cytoplasm-to-nucleus ratio.
C)the same surface-to-volume ratio.
D)less surface area per unit of volume.
E)a smaller average distance between its mitochondria and the external source of oxygen.

back 4

D)less surface area per unit of volume.

front 5

An animal’s inputs of energy and materials would exceed its outputs
A)if it is actively foraging for food.
B)if it is hibernating.
C)if it is growing and increasing its mass.
D)if the animal is an endotherm, which must always take in more energy because of its high metabolic rate.
E)never; homeostasis makes these energy and material budgets always balance.

back 5

C)if it is growing and increasing its mass.

You are studying a large tropical reptile that has a high and relatively stable body temperature. How would you determine whether this animal is an endotherm or an ectotherm?
A)You note that its environment has a high and stable temperature. Because its body temperature matches the environmental temperature, you conclude that it is an ectotherm.
B)You measure the metabolic rate of the reptile, and because it is higher than that of a related species that lives in temperate forests, you conclude that this reptile is an endotherm and its relative is an ectotherm.
C)You know from its high and stable body temperature that it must be an endotherm.
D)You know that it is an ectotherm because it is not a bird or mammal.
E)You subject this reptile to various temperatures in the lab and find that its body temperature and metabolic rate change with the ambient temperature. You conclude that it is an ectotherm.

A)a desert bird
B)a hydra
C)a desert insect
D)a marine jelly (an invertebrate)
E)a snake in a temperate forest
