Question: [QUESTION]Is the following statement about our solar system true or false? Jupiter's volume is more than 10,000 times as large as the volume of Mars. Solution: To determine if this statement is true, calculate the value of 10,000 times the volume of Mars. Then compare the result to the volume of Jupiter. Jupiter's volume is 1.43 x 10^15 km^3, which is less than 1.63 x 10^15 km^3. So, Jupiter's volume is less than 10,000 times as large as the volume of Mars.

Question: [QUESTION]Select the liquid. Solution: Rain is a liquid. A liquid takes the shape of any container it is in. If you put rainwater into a bucket, the rainwater will take the shape of the bucket. But the rainwater will still take up the same amount of space. A plate is a solid. If someone drops a plate, it may break into pieces. But each piece will still have a size and shape of its own. An umbrella is a solid. A solid has a size and shape of its own. When you open an umbrella, it still has a size and shape of its own. Helium is a gas. A gas expands to fill a space. Helium is lighter than air. So, if you fill a balloon with helium, the balloon will rise. If helium leaks out of the balloon, the helium will expand into the space around the balloon.

Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true? Solution: The magnets in Pair 2 attract. The magnets in Pair 1 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Magnet sizes affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Imagine magnets that are the same shape and made of the same material. The smaller the magnets, the smaller the magnitude of the magnetic force between them. Magnet A is the same size in both pairs. But Magnet B is smaller 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]What do these two changes have in common? butter melting on a hot day sediment settling to the bottom of a muddy puddle Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. 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. Loose matter such as sand and dirt is called sediment. Sediment settling to the bottom of a muddy puddle is a physical change. The sediment sinks, and the water above becomes clearer. This separates the water from the sediment. But separating a 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. Butter melting on a hot day is caused by heating. But sediment settling to the bottom of a muddy puddle is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Captain's phenotype for the cheek color trait? Solution: You need to determine Captain's phenotype for the cheek color trait. First, consider the alleles in Captain's genotype for the cheek color gene. Then, decide whether these alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for bright orange cheeks (R) is dominant over the allele for pale orange cheeks (r). This means R is a dominant allele, and r is a recessive allele. Captain's genotype of Rr 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, Captain's phenotype for the cheek color trait must be bright orange cheeks.

Question: [QUESTION]Which of the following statements is true? Solution: Soap is a reactant in the saponification reaction. Soap is produced during saponification. So, soap is a product, not a reactant, in this reaction. Together, the products of a chemical reaction have the same arrangement of atoms as the reactants. The products of a chemical reaction are made up of the same number and types of atoms as the reactants, but the atoms are organized in a different way. So, the products have a different arrangement of atoms compared to the reactants. A substance's chemical structure affects its properties. Substances with different chemical structures have different physical and chemical properties. So, a substance's chemical structure affects its properties. A chemical change occurs during saponification. Saponification is a chemical reaction. As in all chemical reactions, the reactants go through a chemical change during saponification to form the products.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence. The Saharan Atlas formed at a () boundary. Solution: To figure out what type of plate boundary formed the Saharan Atlas, you need to know how the tectonic plates interacted. To find this out, read the passage carefully. The Saharan Atlas, a mountain range in northern Africa, began to form millions of years ago as the Eurasian Plate and the African Plate moved toward each other. As the plates collided, the continental crust was forced upward to form tall mountains. Along the sides of the mountains in the Saharan Atlas, there are riverbeds called wadis. Wadis contain water only during wet seasons. The rest of the year, the river beds are dry. The underlined part of the passage explains that the Saharan Atlas formed as the two plates collided, or ran into each other. For two plates to collide, they must be moving toward each other. So, the Saharan Atlas formed at a convergent boundary.
