(A) Creatinin
(B) Inulin

51. When light strikes the pigment rhodopsin in a rod cell, retinal dissociates from opsin, initiating a signal-transduction pathway that ________. (A) depolarizes the neighboring bipolar cells and initiates an action potential in a ganglion cell (B) depolarizes the rod cell, causing it to release the neurotransmitter glutamate, which excites bipolar cells (C) hyperpolarizes the rod cell, reducing its release of glutamate, which excites some bipolarcells and inhibits others (D) hyperpolarizes the rod cell, reducing its release of glutamate, which excites amacrine cells but inhibits horizontal cells (E) converts cGMP to GMP, opening sodium channels and hyperpolarizing the membrane, causing the rhodopsin to become bleached

52. The transduction of sound waves to action potentials takes place ________. (A) within the tectorial membrane as it is stimulated by the hair cells (B) when hair cells are bent against the tectorial membrane, causing them to depolarized and release neurotransmitter molecules that stimulate sensory neurons (C) as the basilar membrane becomes more and depolarizes, initiating an action potential in a sensory neuron (D) as the basilar membrane vibrates at different frequencies in response to the varying volume of sounds (E) within the middle ear as the vibrations are amplified by the malleus, incus, and stapes

56. Which of the following statements is true? (A) In Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants, carbon fixation and the Calvin cycle occur in the same cells at different times.

(C) For C4 plants, the Calvin cycle is mainly carried out in the mesophyll cells. (D) C3 plants are more resistant to drought than C4 plants. (E) Photorespiration occurs when stomata of C3 plants are fully open during the day.

(C) The root system of monocots are usually fibrous (no main root); taproots are usually present in the root system of eudicots. (D) There are three openings on every pollen grain of monocots; there is one opening on every pollen grain of eudicots. (E) Floral organs of monocots are usually in multiples of three; floral organs of eudicots are usually in multiples of four or five.

59. In the process of double fertilization, one sperm nucleus undergoes fusion with the egg nucleus and the other with the _______nuclei. (A) integument (B) polar (C) endosperm (D) funiculus (E) nucellus
