Charles Darwin observed an orchid flower with very long, thin tubes that prevent many species from feeding on the flower nectar and pollinating the flower. He offered a prediction that some species of pollinators would eventually be found that can feed and pollinate through the small tube. You decide to test Charles Darwin's proposal by placing nets over some orchids that allow small pollinators to enter, but prevent the large sphinx moth from entering. You then compare the number of seeds produced by plants with and without the nets. The seed production is
A. a hypothesis. B. a standardized variable. C. a theory. D. an independent variable. E. a dependent variable.

The inheritance of the petite phenotype in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is complicated by an interaction of mitochondrial and nuclear genes. Which of the following is a false statement about petites in S. cerevisiae?
A) Segregational petites are characterized by mutations in the nuclear genome. B) Suppressive petites are characterized by mitochondria lacking most of its DNA. C) Neutral petites, when crossed to wild type, yield wild-type mitochondrial function. D) The three categories of petites are segregational, neutral, and suppressive. E) Both nuclear and cytoplasmic (mitochondrial) genes contribute to the petite phenotype in some cases.
