Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Genomics is the study of the functions and interactions of all the genes in the genome. Genetics is the study of single genes and their effects. Both are subsets of biology, which is the study of life and living matter. Inheritance is the way in which genetic material is passed on to subsequent generations.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Most genes are located on chromosomes found in the nucleus of cells. Golgi bodies process cellular proteins. Lysosomes break down waste and cellular debris. Mitochondria are responsible for cellular energy production.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
