Second Quarter Exam

The document contains multiple choice questions testing knowledge of biology, genetics, and ecology. Key points covered include: Cuvier advocated catastrophism; nucleic acids are polyionic at neutral pH; Linnaeus developed the binomial naming of species; primary producers capture solar energy and produce complex molecules known as GPP; Tansley coined the term "ecology"; and Lindeman studied the ecosystem concept at Cedar Bog Lake in Wisconsin.
