sorry this message is so late in coming... i have not made up study guides for this exam and at this point to do so would be futile...
i would recommend studying from dr. caldwells handouts and the practice exam...
a few things i would like to mention are...
during meiosis crossing over occurs during prophase I, the chiasma that dr. caldwell mentioned in lecture is just the singular of the chiasmata mentioned in the diagram (9.15) you can see that after they form the colors of the chromosomes are mixed indicating that recombination has occurred...
meiosis II is a lot like mitosis except that there are only single copies of all the chromosomes (no homologs)
professors like questions which compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis...
be clear on which reactions in respiration and photosynthesis are redox reactions... also remember the definitions for reduced (gaining) and oxidized (losing electrons/hydrogen atoms)
for lots of multiple choice questions you can arrive at a correct answer by eliminating the incorrect ones...
thats about all... good luck and study hard so you wont need it...
