EmSAT Achieve BiologyPublic Test Specification\n\nTest Description:The EmSAT Biology Achieve is computer-based test that measures the proficiencylevel of grade 12 students in Biology and determines their readiness for college.EmSAT BiologyAchieve has four major sections:(1)From molecules to living organisms-Structure and function;(2)Heredity and genetic technology;(3)Evolution and Diversity of Life;(4)Ecology-Interdependence,energy,and dynamics.Test sections,questions,and options are randomized and timed by thecomputer.Test takers can see how much time they have throughout the test.  \n\n| Test Duration:   | 90 minutes   |\n| --- | --- |\n| Questions:   | 80 questions   |\n| Content Areas:   | (1)From molecules to living organisms:Structure and function  \u003Cbr>(2)Heredity and genetic

--- |\n| Score   | Score Descriptors   |\n| 1500+   | High Proficiency:students at this level are well-prepared for biology courses  \u003Cbr>at the university level.   |\n| 1100-1475   | Proficient:students at this level are at a satisfactory level of preparation to  \u003Cbr>begin first-year biology courses at the university level.   |\n| 900-1075   | Borderline Proficient:students at this level are minimally prepared for first-  \u003Cbr>year biology courses at the university level.   |\n| 700-875   | Basic:students at this level do not have sufficient mastery of prerequisite  \u003Cbr>knowledge for first-year courses in biology at the university level,and may  \u003Cbr>need some additional support.   |\n| 500-675   | Needs Improvement:students at this level need additional instructional  \u003Cbr>support in basic biological concepts and skills before beginning any first-year  \u003Cbr>biology courses.   |\n| \u003C500   | Little knowledge of general biology:students at

major sections and related content specifications that grade 12 students should be ableto demonstrate to meet the expectations of this test.  \n### Section 1:From molecules to living organisms:Structure and function\n\nThis section includes the chemistry of life as well as living organisms'organization and development.The chemistry of life focuses on the importance of biological macromolecules in the body and theproperties of water that allow life to exist on earth,as well as the role of enzymes in chemicalreactions carried out in living organisms.It also focuses on the major cellular processes of breakingenergy(photosynthesis and cellular respiration)and energy transformation.  \nLiving organisms'organization and development focuses of the role of the cell in different livingorganisms emphasizing on cellular structures and their functions,as well as the use of microscopes incellular studies.In addition,this part focuses on major body systems and processes in living organisms.It emphasizes the role of body systems in different living organisms with relation to the importance ofthe interaction between the body systems in maintaining the internal body environment.  \n## Content Specifications\n\n·    Distinguish between the four major categories of carbon compounds in terms of composition,energy values,and primary functions in the body  \n·     Relate the properties of water to its roles in living organisms  \nExplain the role and effect of enzymes and other factors,such as pH and temperature,in thechemical reactions carried out in living organisms  \n●Identify and summarize the major cellular processes of breaking energy-rich molecules toobtain energy  \n·     Demonstrate a good understanding of handling and using the light microscope forexamination purposes,and compare with electron microscope in terms of resolution,magnification and use  \nExplain the role of the cell in
