Question: [QUESTION]Compare the average kinetic energies of the particles in each sample. Which sample has the higher temperature? Solution: Each particle in sample A has more mass than each particle in sample B. The particles in sample A also have a higher average speed than the particles 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.

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common? melting wax snowflakes forming in a cloud Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. Melting wax is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The wax changes from solid to liquid. But it is still made of the same type of matter. Snowflakes forming in a cloud is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. Liquid water freezes and becomes solid, but it is still made of water. A different type of matter is not formed. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are physical changes. No new matter is created. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are physical changes. They are not chemical changes. Both are caused by heating. Wax melting is caused by heating. But snowflakes forming in a cloud is not. Both are caused by cooling. A snowflake begins to form when a tiny drop of liquid water in a cloud freezes. This is caused by cooling. But melting wax is not.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on the arrows, which of the following living things is an omnivore? Solution: Omnivores are consumers that eat both producers and other consumers. So, an omnivore has arrows pointing to it from at least one producer and at least one consumer. The zooplankton has only one arrow pointing to it. This arrow starts from the phytoplankton. So, the zooplankton is a consumer but not an omnivore. The kelp bass has an arrow pointing to it from the kelp, which is a producer. The kelp bass also has arrows pointing to it from the zooplankton and the plainfin midshipman, which are both consumers. The kelp bass eats a producer and consumers, so it is an omnivore.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Chanel's phenotype for the fur length trait? Solution: Chanel's genotype for the fur length gene is FF. Chanel's genotype of FF has only F allelles. The F allele is for short fur. So, Chanel's phenotype for the fur length trait must be short fur. To check this answer, consider whether Chanel's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for short fur (F) is dominant over the allele for long fur (f). This means F is a dominant allele, and f is a recessive allele. Chanel's genotype of FF has two dominant alleles. An organism with at least one dominant allele for a gene will have the dominant allele's version of the trait. So, Chanel's phenotype for the fur length trait must be short fur.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence to estimate the diameter of the Sun compared to Earth. The Sun's diameter is about () times greater than Earth's. Solution: In the model, the Sun and Earth are spheres. The diameter of a sphere is the distance from one side to the other through the center. You can use the model to estimate how many Earth diameters would add up to the Sun's diameter. The Sun's diameter is represented by a black line. Earth's diameter is equal to the width of the dot that represents Earth. Imagine lining up copies of this dot side by side. If you used only 3 or 10 dots, they would not cover the line. To cover the line completely, you would need about 100 dots. So, the Sun's diameter is about 100 times greater than Earth's.

Question: [QUESTION]Last year, there were seven men's clothing stores on Main Street in Somerville. This year, there are only three. What probably happened to the overall supply of men's shirts in Somerville? Solution: When four men's clothing stores closed on Main Street, the number of suppliers went down. There were fewer stores selling men's shirts. So, the supply of men's shirts probably went down.
