Biology’s Test Guide for 2° Partial Exam Page 1 / 6 Biology I – Miller & Levine I. Read the next text and answer the next questions. Mr. Cruz is a big biology teacher. One day, he observed that a student was decreasing in his grades and slept a lot during his class. He though that it could be happen by the lack of sleep, because when he was young, like us, he lived the same story, so he proposed that his deficient of concentration was due by the lack of sleep. He tested his hypothesis living the same situation!!! How? During the winter holidays, he and his wife made the experiment. 1. Mr. Cruz slept just 3 hours during a week. 2. His wife (Mrs. Cruz) slept in a normally period. At final of this period, they, with the help of a friend, contested an exam and the results of it were:  Mr. Cruz: 72  Mrs. Cruz: 97 Finally, he concluded that the lack of sleep is the principal cause in the lower of the students´ performance. 1.
