practice TASC Year 12 Biology practice questions DNA and proteins hard protein-synthesis diagram

1. The model shows DNA code being copied to mRNA. Which process occurs in the nucleus before translation?

Choices

Transcription
Diffusion
Osmosis
Predation

Explanation:

Transcription makes an mRNA copy from a DNA template before translation.

practice TASC Year 12 Biology practice questions Inheritance hard Punnett square

2. A Punnett square shows Ff x Ff. What proportion of offspring are expected to be FF?

Choices

Explanation:

One of the four equally likely boxes is FF.

practice TASC Year 12 Biology practice questions Immunity hard immune-response graph

3. The antibody graph shows a larger response after the second exposure to an antigen. Which immune feature explains this?

Choices

Memory cells
Cell walls
Starch grains
Abiotic factors

Explanation:

Memory cells formed after first exposure help produce a stronger secondary response.

practice TASC Year 12 Biology practice questions Disease hard disease-spread graph

4. A disease-spread graph shows cases rising more slowly after mask use reduces transmission probability. Which factor changed?

Choices

The rate of successful transmission
The DNA code of every host
The number of chromosomes in all cells
The food-web trophic level

Explanation:

Reducing transmission probability lowers the average number of new cases caused by each infection.

practice TASC Year 12 Biology practice questions Biotechnology hard DNA gel diagram

5. A DNA gel shows band B travelling further than band A from the wells. Which band represents the smaller fragment?

Choices

Band B
Band A
The well
Both bands are cells

Explanation:

Smaller DNA fragments travel further through the gel than larger fragments.

practice TASC Year 12 Biology practice questions Homeostasis hard homeostasis loop

6. A feedback loop shows body temperature falling below normal. Which response helps restore temperature?

Choices

Shivering increases heat production.
Sweating increases only.
Insulin destroys heat.
Temperature is not controlled.

Explanation:

Shivering is a negative feedback response that generates heat and helps return body temperature toward normal.

For parents checking senior maths readiness

Year 10 practice can help identify whether a student is comfortable with algebra, geometry, trigonometry, statistics, and probability before choosing senior maths pathways. The demo is a quick way to sample those areas without creating an account.
