AP-Biology Final Review, 1st Term

Things You DON’T Need For The AP Test

Names, structures, and effects of all plant hormones Details behind radioisotope specific dating The names and dates of extinctions No one specific behavior or physiological reproductive

isolation mechanism No one specific example of speciation or biodiversity No one specific example of major changes in an

environment Any replication enzyme that is NOT DNA polymerase,

ligase, RNA polymerase, helicase, or topoisomerase Details and enzyme names/factors in prokaryotic

transcription/translation Epistasis and pleiotropy Specific details about horizontal gene transfer Specific details about the sexual reproductive cycles of

plants or animals No specific cofactors or coenzymes

Things You DO Need For The Final

Asexual vs. Sexual reproduction

Chromosome structures Specific events in

mitosis/meiosis Sources of genetic

variation Different life plans using

diploid and haploid cells Effects of genetic disease

like sickle cell, hemophilia, etc…

Mendelian genetics, test crosses, linked genes

Complex inheritance like codominance, incomplete dominance, epitasis, sex-

linked, etc… Scientists who

experimented with DNA/Genes and what they discovered

Pedigree reading Structure of DNA Details of DNA replication Details on transcription and

translation Pre-mRNA modification Post-translation

modification Gene expression regulation Basic taxonomy concepts Cladogram formation and

usage

Things You DO Need For The Final

Intro to gene expression in zygotes

Early development Structure of the operon Difference between gene

regulation in prokaryotes and eukaryotes

Hardy-Weinburg equations, calculations, and equilibrium

Population genetic concepts like balanced polymorphism, heterozygote advantage, genetic drift, gene flow, etc…

Pre-zygotic and post-zygotic isolation

mechanisms Basic understanding eras

and major periods in Earth’s history

Fossil record formation and usage

Effects of mass extinctions and changing Earth’s surface

General ideas behind systematics and phylogenetics

Ancestral vs. Derived characters traits

VOCABULARY!!!

Sample AP Exam Questions


340-360 individuals/day

(900-200)/(5-3)= 700/2= 350


5.3-5.4

Null= Pp x pp 0.5 Pp and 0.5 pp146/2= 73 purple and 73 white

X2 = ((87-73)2/73) +((59-73)2/73) 2.68 + 2.68 = 5.36
