Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
breaking a plate
water evaporating from a lake
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
Breaking a plate is a physical change. The plate gets broken into pieces. But each piece is still made of the same type of matter.
Water evaporating from a lake is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The liquid changes into a gas, but 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.
Water evaporating is caused by heating. But breaking a plate is not.
Both are caused by cooling.
Neither change is caused by cooling. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which logical fallacy is used in the text?
Mr. Wells argues that we need to do more to prevent workplace injuries and fatalities. I doubt that someone so socially awkward would know a thing about office safety.

Question: [QUESTION]Select the one animal that has all of the fish traits listed above.
Solution: To decide if an animal is part of a group, look at the traits of the group.
Fish have the following traits:
They have fins, not limbs.
They make eggs with no shells.
Compare each animal's traits to the group's traits. Select the animal with traits similar to the group's traits.
An American tree sparrow has the following traits:
It has feathers.
It has wings.
It has a beak.
It makes eggs with shells.
An American tree sparrow does not have all of the traits of a fish. An American tree sparrow is a bird.
A European flounder has the following traits:
It has fins, not limbs.
It makes eggs with no shells.
A European flounder has the traits of a fish. A European flounder is a fish. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Skip's phenotype for the horns trait?
Solution: You need to determine Skip's phenotype for the horns trait. First, consider the alleles in Skip's genotype for the horns gene. Then, decide whether these alleles are dominant or recessive.
The allele for having horns (h) is recessive to the allele for not having horns (H). This means H is a dominant allele, and h is a recessive allele.
Skip's genotype of Hh has one dominant allele and one recessive allele. An organism with at least one dominant allele for a gene will have the dominant allele's version of the trait. So, Skip's phenotype for the horns trait must be not having horns. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Open secret is a contradiction, because open describes something that is freely or publicly known, and a secret is hidden. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence.
In this chemical reaction, fructose is a ().
Solution: Read the underlined text carefully. Look for information about what happens to fructose 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 fructose forms when sucrose breaks down. Because fructose is produced by this chemical reaction, fructose is a product. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Solution: Distance affects the strength of the magnetic force. When magnets are farther apart, the magnetic force between them is weaker.
The magnets in Pair 1 are farther apart than the magnets in Pair 2. So, the magnetic force is weaker in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Will these magnets attract or repel each other?
Solution: Will these magnets attract or repel? To find out, look at which poles are closest to each other.
The south pole of one magnet is closest to the north pole of the other magnet. Poles that are different attract. So, these magnets will attract each other. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Compare the motion of two runners. Which runner was moving at a lower speed?
Solution: Look at the distance each runner moved and the time it took to move that distance.
One runner moved 25 miles in 5 hours.
The other runner moved 35 miles in 5 hours.
Notice that each runner spent the same amount of time moving. The runner who moved 25 miles moved a shorter distance in that time. So, that runner must have moved at a lower speed. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which of the following is a primary function of carbohydrates?
Solution: | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
