While at the lake, Cohen saw 300 fish-eater birds that had migrated into the area recently walking by the lake, eating the fish they had caught. The number of birds at the lake doubled on the second day and reduced by 200 on the third day. How many fish-eater birds did Cohen see in the three days?

Since there were 300 fish-eater birds in the lake on the first day, the number doubled to 2*300 = <<300*2=600>>600 birds on the second day. The total number of fish that Cohen saw in the lake in the two days is 600+300 = <<600+300=900>>900 On the third day, the number of fish in the lake reduced to 600-200 = <<600-200=400>>400 birds In the three days, Cohen saw 400+900 = <<400+900=1300>>1300 fish-eater birds at the lake. #### 1300

Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
[ "The strength of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnetic force is stronger in Pair 2.", "The magnetic force is stronger in Pair 1." ]

Distance affects the strength of the magnetic force. When magnets are closer together, the magnetic force between them is stronger. The magnets in Pair 1 are closer together than the magnets in Pair 2. So, the magnetic force is stronger in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch water to fill a 600 gallon tank. Each bucket is five gallons. Jack is stronger, and is able to carry two buckets of water at a time, but Jill can only manage one. Also, Jack can complete three trips to the well and back in the time it takes Jill to make two trips. How many trips will Jill make before the tank is filled?
null
30
Jack is able to carry two 5-gallon buckets of water per trip, or 2 * 5 = 10 gallons of water. Jill can only carry one bucket per trip, or 5 gallons. Jack completes 3 trips to the well and back for every 2 trips Jill completes, so in that time they have both together carried 3 Jack trips * 2 buckets per Jack trip * 5 gallons per bucket + 2 Jill trips * 1 bucket per Jill trip * 5 gallons per bucket = 30 gallons + 10 gallons = <<3*2*5+2*1*5=40>>40 gallons of water. If you consider these as a single "group" of trips, it will take 600 gallons / 40 gallons per "group" of trips = <<600/40=15>>15 groups of trips. As each of these "groups" of trips consists of two Jill trips, Jill will make 15 * 2 = <<15*2=30>>30 trips to the well and back before the tank is filled. #### 30

If Tenisha has 40 dogs, the number of female dogs is 60/100*40 = 24 3/4 of the females give birth, meaning 3/4*24 = <<3/4*24=18>>18 female dogs gives birth to puppies. Since each dog that gave birth had 10 puppies, the number of puppies that were born is 18*10 = <<18*10=180>>180 After donating 130 puppies to the church, Tenisha remained with 180-130 = 50 puppies. #### 50

Peyton Manning throws a football 20 yards when the temperature is 50 degrees Fahrenheit, but the ball moves twice as far when the temperature is 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

Calculate the total number of yards he threw the ball in the two days.

On Saturday, he threw the ball 20 times, and since the temperature was 50 degrees, he could throw only 20 yards, totaling 20*20 = <<20*20=400>>400 yards. On Sunday, the temperature favored him, and he threw the ball twice the distance he could throw on Saturday, which is 2*20 = <<2*20=40>>40 yards. If he threw the ball 30 times, he threw for 30*40 = <<30*40=1200>>1200 yards. In the two days, he threw 1200+400 = <<1200+400=1600>>1600 yards. #### 1600

Based on this information, what is this plant's phenotype for the fruit color trait?
[ "yellow fruit", "red fruit" ]
A
The tomato plant's genotype for the fruit color gene is ff. The tomato plant's genotype of ff has only f alleles. The f allele is for yellow fruit. So, the tomato plant's phenotype for the fruit color trait must be yellow fruit. To check this answer, consider whether the tomato plant's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for red fruit (F) is dominant over the allele for yellow fruit (f). This means F is a dominant allele, and f is a recessive allele. The tomato plant's genotype of ff has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, the tomato plant's phenotype for the fruit color trait must be yellow fruit.

Complete the sentence. In this chemical reaction, sucrose is a ().
[ "reactant", "product" ]
A
Read the underlined text carefully. Look for information about what happens to sucrose in this chemical reaction. Honeybees make honey from nectar that they collect from flowers. Nectar is a clear liquid that contains a sugar called sucrose. After a bee collects nectar from a flower, chemicals in the bee's body break down the sucrose into a mixture of fructose and glucose, two simpler sugars. The bee then deposits this mixture into a honeycomb and seals the honeycomb with wax. The underlined text tells you that when sucrose breaks down, fructose and glucose are formed. When sucrose reacts, or goes through a chemical change, its atoms are rearranged to form fructose and glucose. Because sucrose reacts in this chemical reaction, sucrose is a reactant.

Complete the statement. Assume that the horse's mass did not change. The gravitational potential energy stored between the horse and Earth () as the horse ran toward the river.
[ "increased", "decreased", "stayed the same" ]
B
Think about how the distance between the horse and the center of Earth changed. The bottom of the small hill is lower than the top of the hill. As the horse ran down the hill, the distance between the horse and the center of Earth decreased. So, the gravitational potential energy stored between the horse and Earth decreased as the horse ran toward the river.

Compare the average kinetic energies of the particles in each sample. Which sample has the higher temperature?
[ "sample A", "sample B", "neither; the samples have the same temperature" ]
A
The particles in both samples have the same average speed, but each particle in sample A has more mass than each particle in sample B. So, the particles in sample A have a higher average kinetic energy than the particles in sample B. Because the particles in sample A have the higher average kinetic energy, sample A must have the higher temperature.

Select the one substance that is not a rock.
[ "A computer processor is made by humans. It is not a pure substance.", "Slate is not a pure substance. It is a solid.", "Calcarenite is not a pure substance. It is formed in nature." ]
A
Compare the properties of each substance to the properties of rocks. Select the substance whose properties do not match those of rocks. Calcarenite is a rock. Slate is a rock. A computer processor is made by humans. But rocks are not made by living things. So, a computer processor is not a rock.

[ "a goose that moved 700kilometers south in 10hours", "a goose that moved 695kilometers east in 10hours", "a goose that moved 850kilometers south in 10hours" ]
C
Look at the distance each goose moved and the time it took to move that distance. The direction each goose moved does not affect its speed. Notice that each goose moved for 10 hours. The goose that moved 850 kilometers moved the farthest distance in that time. So, that goose must have moved at the highest speed.
