Biological puzzles and tests

The 65 tasks in the book can be divided into three types in terms of their nature and level of difficulty. Knowledge testing tasks are similar to “traditional” tests. The reader must recognize the details of figures and determine their characteristic properties (such as task 1.3). The task is to understand and interpret experiments related to the known curriculum in comprehension tests (eg task 2.2.2). The highest level of knowledge is required by mind-testing tests. The solver of such a task acquires new knowledge by using previously learned data and concepts (eg task 2.4.6). For information, the title of each task is followed by their level of difficulty (*: easy, **: moderately, ***: difficult). The rules for answering each type of question are summarized at the end of the volume. In order to increase the efficiency of knowledge acquisition, at the end of each test, we provided not only the correct solutions, but also brief explanations that shed light on the essence of the tasks.
