In the food web below, what would happen if all the frogs were removed?
AInsect population increases and snake population decreases
BAll organisms die
CNothing changes
DSnake population increases
Explanation
📌 If frogs are removed: • Insects (grasshoppers) they ate would INCREASE (no predator) • Snakes that ate frogs would DECREASE (less food) • This demonstrates how removing one species affects the entire food web.
Question 2 of 7
TEKS 9A-9DEasy Diagram
The diagram shows the four biomolecule types. Which is built from amino acids?
AProteins
BLipids
CCarbohydrates
DNucleic acids
Explanation
Proteins are polymers of amino acids. Carbohydrates → monosaccharides; lipids → fatty acids/glycerol; nucleic acids → nucleotides.
Question 3 of 7
TEKS 10A-10CEasy Diagram
The diagram shows the heart's four chambers. Which chamber pumps oxygenated blood to the body?
ALeft atrium
BRight atrium
CRight ventricle
DLeft ventricle
Explanation
The left ventricle pumps oxygen-rich blood out through the aorta to the body. Right ventricle sends deoxygenated blood to the lungs.
Question 4 of 7
TEKS 9A-9DEasy Diagram
Which biomolecule serves primarily as long-term energy storage?
AProteins
BNucleic acids
CCarbohydrates
DLipids (fats / oils)
Explanation
Lipids store about twice the energy per gram as carbohydrates → ideal for long-term energy storage. Carbs are quick-access energy.
Question 5 of 7
TEKS 11A-12FEasy Word Diagram
The diagram shows a carbon cycle. Which process RELEASES carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?
ACondensation
BPhotosynthesis
CCellular respiration
DNitrogen fixation
Explanation
📌 Processes that RELEASE CO₂: • Cellular respiration (animals AND plants) • Combustion (burning fossil fuels) • Decomposition
Process that ABSORBS CO₂: • Photosynthesis
Question 6 of 7
TEKS 9A-9DMedium Word Diagram
Match each biomolecule to its function based on the diagram.
ANucleic acids
BCarbohydrates
CProteins
DLipids
Explanation
📌 The four biomolecules and their primary functions: • Carbohydrates → quick energy (glucose, starch) • Lipids → long-term energy, cell membranes • Proteins → building, repair, enzymes • Nucleic acids → store genetic info (DNA, RNA)
Question 7 of 7
TEKS 10A-10CEasy Image
The image shows the human respiratory system. Which structure is the primary site of gas exchange?
ABronchi
BLarynx
CTrachea
DAlveoli
Explanation
Gas exchange (O₂ ↔ CO₂) happens at the alveoli, where their thin walls allow gases to diffuse between air and capillary blood.
