Welcome to the formative test!

Knowing/Doing/Understanding questions are divided by colour, so you know which type it is.

Please answer all questions.

KNOWING

Tests your knowledge (did you study?)

Example: what is the definition, which is the right example, name three…

1: Name 3 organisation levels

Name the 4 different cell types that exist in the human body

What is the function of the mitochondria?

Which organ system is almost completely made out of epithelial tissue?

What is the function of the revolving nosepiece in a microscope?

1. The shape of a cell is a circle
2. The shape of a cell is a square
3. The shape of a cell is a rectangle
4. The shape of a cell is different with each cell

DOING

Tests if you can work with the knowledge

Example: Give an example, explain the difference, explain why this is, …

1. Excretion
2. Movement
3. Reproduction
4. Respiration

Drag the items (blue) to the correct box (red)

ALIVE

DEAD

NON-LIVING

UNDERSTANDING

Tests if you understand the matter and can apply it to a different situation

Example: what would happen if..

Take a look at the picture added to this slide. It shows a
human organ system (1),
while the smaller items (2,3,4, from left to right) show
magnifications of a body part.
Which organ system is shown in this picture?

Chloroplasts are organelles that are important in plants. However, animals do not have chloroplasts. Imagine that we would be able to give humans chloroplasts in each cell. Which organ system would then be less important than it is now? Explain why.

Cars show several characteristics of life. Explain why cars are still not considered alive.

That was it!

Hopefully, these questions gave you an idea of what a biology test looks like. I will let you know how it went during the next lessons. However, don't expect a grade since that is a bit difficult in this situation.

For next lesson:
