  2. What is the E.O.C Assessment? A summative assessment that all grade level students take at the end of the school year. This Biology E.O.C assessment is over all topics that have been taught from the start of the 2019 school year. Worth 30% of the students overall Biology final grade.

  3. Standards/ Benchmarks • Ecology • Evolution • Taxonomy • Macromolecules • Cellular Respiration • Photosynthesis • Human Body • Cells • Genetics • Biochemistry • Human Health factors • Plant Anatomy

  4. Testing Strategy (C)ircle the key word (U)nderline the question (T)hink about what the ? Is asking (E)liminate 2 wrong answers (S)elect the best answer choice

  5. Sample Test Questions (Visuals) The diagram below represents a flower, the reproductive structure of some plants. Most flowers have both male and female structures for fertilization and reproduction. Which structure is represented by the letter A in the diagram above? A. the stamen, a male structure which produces pollen B. the pistol, a female structure which collects pollen and passes it to the ovary C. the sepal, a modified leaf used for protection of the flower D. the petals, decorative structures which attract pollinators

  6. Sample Test Question (Short passage) A weightlifter is using heavy weights in short bursts for a competition. Because his muscle cells are not able to take in enough oxygen to make very much ATP the weightlifter begins to get fatigue in his muscles. Which of the following processes is most likely going on in the muscles of the weightlifter as he competes in his event? A. As the cells run out of oxygen they switch to anaerobic respiration, which allows the cell to make small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen. B. As the cells run out of oxygen, they die off gradually and the weightlifter's muscles have fewer contracting muscle cells. C. The cells will never run out of oxygen if the weightlifter is breathing. D. As the cells run out of oxygen, they will continue to make the same amount of ATP, since oxygen is not required to make ATP.

  7. Sample Test Question (Direct question) What function does ATP carry out in living things? A. aids in protein folding and coiling B. used to capture and transfer energy C. identifies DNA start sequences for transcription D. helps maintain the fluidity of cell membranes
