Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common? ice melting in a cup pouring milk on oatmeal Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. Ice melting in a cup is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The solid ice becomes liquid, but it is still made of water. The links between atoms in the water molecules do not change. So, a different type of matter is not formed. Pouring milk on oatmeal is a physical change. The oatmeal and milk form a creamy mixture. But making this mixture does not form a different type of matter. 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. Ice melting is caused by heating. But pouring milk on oatmeal is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is this plant's phenotype for the flower form trait? Solution: The rose plant's genotype for the flower form gene is ff. The rose plant's genotype of ff has only f alleles. The f allele is for single flowers. So, the rose plant's phenotype for the flower form trait must be single flowers. To check this answer, consider whether the rose plant's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for single flowers (f) is recessive to the allele for double flowers (F). This means F is a dominant allele, and f is a recessive allele. The rose 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 rose plant's phenotype for the flower form trait must be single flowers.

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common? adding dish soap to water in a sink butter melting on a hot day Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. Adding dish soap to water in a sink is a physical change. Bubbles may appear if air gets trapped in the soapy water, but a different type of matter does not form. Butter melting on a hot day is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The butter changes from solid to liquid, but it is still made of the same type of matter. 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. Butter melting on a hot day is caused by heating. But adding dish soap to water is not. Both are caused by cooling.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence. In this chemical reaction, water is a (). Solution: Read the underlined text carefully. Look for information about what happens to water in this chemical reaction. Like people on Earth, astronauts living on the International Space Station need oxygen to survive. Since there is no oxygen in space for the astronauts to breathe, they make oxygen using a process called electrolysis. This process uses electricity to break down water into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. The hydrogen gas can be removed from the space station or recycled, and the oxygen gas is released into the air that the astronauts breathe. The underlined text tells you that when water breaks down, oxygen and hydrogen are formed. When water reacts, or goes through a chemical change, its atoms are rearranged to form oxygen and hydrogen. Because water reacts in this chemical reaction, water is a reactant.

Question: [QUESTION]Which better describes the Shenandoah National Park ecosystem? Solution: A temperate deciduous forest is a type of ecosystem. Temperate deciduous forests have the following features: warm, wet summers and cold, wet winters, soil that is rich in nutrients, and only a few types of trees. So, Shenandoah National Park has cold, wet winters. It also has soil that is rich in nutrients.

Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true? Solution: Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a greater distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is smaller. There is a greater distance between the magnets in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

Question: [QUESTION]Which plant can produce spores? Solution: A mature fern can make spores. Spores grow inside the spore case. When the spore case breaks open, the spores are released. A heart-shaped plant produces eggs and sperm, not spores.

Question: [QUESTION]Before the Louisiana Purchase, what was the western boundary of the United States? Solution: Before the Louisiana Purchase, the western boundary of the United States was the Mississippi River. The old boundaries had been set in 1783, at the end of the Revolutionary War. In the Treaty of Paris, Britain gave the United States control of the western land south of the Great Lakes. The United States in 1783 stretched from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River.

Question: [QUESTION]Select the statement that is supported by the data. Solution: On the graph, the year is shown on the x-axis. The global energy use per year is shown by the height of each bar. To determine which statement is supported by the data, evaluate how global energy use has changed over time. Global energy use increased most years between 1965 and 2015. On the graph, most bars are taller than the ones before them. This means energy use increased most years between 1965 and 2015. So, this statement is supported by the data. Humans used about the same amount of energy each year between 1965 and 2015. On the graph, most bars are taller than the ones before them. This means energy use did not stay the same every year. Instead, it increased between 1965 and 2015. So, this statement is not supported by the data.
