Question 1: Why is visible movement alone not sufficient to decide whether an organism is alive?
Plants do not perform life processes
Movement occurs only in animals
Some living organisms may not show visible movement
All living organisms always move visibly
Question 2: Which set lists only processes essential for maintenance of life according to the chapter?
Photosynthesis, reproduction, movement and growth
Growth, movement, reproduction and sleep
Nutrition, respiration, transport and excretion
Digestion, reproduction, movement and growth
Question 3: Why is diffusion by itself insufficient to supply oxygen to all cells in large multicellular organisms?
Oxygen is produced only inside cells
Oxygen cannot dissolve in water
All cells are directly exposed to the environment
Many cells are far from the external environment
Question 4: Which raw materials are directly used in photosynthesis as described in the chapter?
Carbon dioxide and water
Glucose and minerals
Oxygen and glucose
Nitrogen and oxygen
Question 5: In the variegated-leaf starch test, why do only green areas form starch?
They contain chlorophyll
They have more stomata
They have more xylem
They have larger guard cells
Question 6: Which observation provides evidence that carbon dioxide is necessary for photosynthesis?
The plant without carbon dioxide fails to form starch normally
Both plants form exactly the same amount of starch
The plant without carbon dioxide grows faster
KOH increases the carbon dioxide concentration
Question 7: Why is salivary amylase important in digestion?
It emulsifies fats
It acts mainly on starch
It breaks down proteins
It absorbs minerals
Question 8: Which statement best distinguishes aerobic from anaerobic respiration?
Anaerobic respiration always releases more energy
Aerobic respiration uses oxygen and releases more energy
Aerobic respiration occurs without oxygen
Both processes occur only in mitochondria
Question 9: Why do herbivores generally have a longer small intestine than carnivores?
Herbivores do not absorb nutrients
Herbivores have no digestive enzymes
Carnivores cannot digest proteins
Cellulose-rich food requires more digestive processing
Question 10: Which correctly describes translocation in plants?
It occurs without energy involvement
It transports only water
It can move food and other substances in both upward and downward directions
It occurs only downward in plants
