Question: [QUESTION]Complete the statement. During this chemical reaction, the airbag becomes (). Solution: To determine whether the airbag becomes warmer or colder, look for the text that describes the movement of thermal energy during the reaction.Airbags reduce injuries during car crashes by inflating quickly to provide cushions for people inside a car. Older airbags contain a small amount of sodium azide (NaN3). If a crash occurs, the sodium azide is heated, causing it to break down into sodium metal (Na) and nitrogen gas (N2). In less than one-tenth of a second, enough nitrogen gas is produced to completely fill the airbag. As a result of the reaction, thermal energy is transferred into the surroundings.The underlined text tells you that thermal energy is transferred into the surroundings. Because thermal energy moves out of the reaction and into the surroundings, the temperature of the surroundings increases.The surroundings include the airbag that the reaction takes place in. So, the airbag becomes warmer.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on the table, in which story does the main character travel through time by accident? Solution: In a table, each cell gives information related to its row and column. This table compares three stories about time travel. Look in the Plot column to find the story about a character who travels through time accidentally. Follow that row left to see what's in the Story column. A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court is in the Story column for a plot where the main character travels through time by accident. The Time Machine does not have a plot where the character travels through time accidentally. So, the main character travels through time by accident only in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court.

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

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? rain forming in a cloud water boiling on a stove Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. Rain forming in a cloud is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. Water vapor in the air condenses into tiny droplets of liquid water. These droplets make up a cloud. When there is enough water in the air, the droplets will fall as rain. Water boiling on the stove 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 boiling is caused by heating. But rain forming in a cloud is not. Both are caused by cooling. Rain begins to form when water vapor in the air becomes liquid water. This is caused by cooling. But water boiling is not.

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common? ice melting in a cup dew appearing on grass in the morning 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. Dew appearing on grass in the morning is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. Water vapor in the air touches the cool grass and becomes liquid. The water vapor changes state to become dew, 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. Ice melting is caused by heating. But dew appearing on grass is not. Both are caused by cooling. Dew appears when water vapor in the air condenses into a liquid on the grass. This is caused by cooling. But ice melting is not.

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with red fruit to offspring with yellow fruit? Choose the most likely ratio. Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with red fruit or yellow fruit, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the fruit color trait. The question tells you that the F allele, which is for red fruit, is dominant over the f allele, which is for yellow fruit. Red fruit is the dominant allele's version of the fruit color trait. A tomato plant with the dominant version of the fruit color trait must have at least one dominant allele for the fruit color gene. So, offspring with red fruit must have the genotype FF or Ff. There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype FF or Ff. Yellow fruit is the recessive allele's version of the fruit color trait. A tomato plant with the recessive version of the fruit color trait must have only recessive alleles for the fruit color gene. So, offspring with yellow fruit must have the genotype ff. All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype ff. So, the expected ratio of offspring with red fruit to offspring with yellow fruit is 0:4. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will never produce offspring with red fruit. Instead, this cross is expected to always produce offspring with yellow fruit.

Question: [QUESTION]Which type of relationship is formed when a cleaner wrasse eats parasites off a moray eel? Solution: When a cleaner wrasse removes parasites from a moray eel, the wrasse gets food that it needs to grow and survive. So, the wrasse benefits from its relationship with the eel. The eel is stronger and less likely to die after the wrasse removes the parasites. So, the eel also benefits from its relationship with the wrasse. Since both the wrasse and the eel benefit, a mutualistic relationship is formed when a cleaner wrasse removes parasites from a moray eel.
