Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
a piece of avocado turning brown
milk going sour
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
A piece of avocado turning brown is a chemical change. The avocado reacts with oxygen in the air to form a different type of matter.
If you scrape off the brown part of the avocado, the inside will still be green. The inside hasn't touched the air. So the chemical change hasn't happened to that part of the avocado.
Milk going sour is a chemical change. The type of matter in the milk slowly changes. The new matter that is formed gives the milk its sour taste.
Step 2: Look at each answer choice.
Both are only physical changes.
Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes.
Both are chemical changes.
Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different.
Both are caused by heating.
Neither change is caused by heating.
Both are caused by cooling.
Neither change is caused by cooling. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]Which of the following organisms is the primary consumer in this food web?
Solution: Primary consumers eat producers. So, in a food web, primary consumers have arrows pointing to them from producers.
The bolete fungus has arrows pointing to it from the black racer, the gray fox, and the bobcat. None of these organisms is a producer, so the bolete fungus is not a primary consumer.
The black bear has an arrow pointing to it from the persimmon tree. The persimmon tree is a producer, so the black bear is a primary consumer.
The silver maple does not have any arrows pointing to it. So, the silver maple is not a primary consumer.
The pine vole has an arrow pointing to it from the persimmon tree. The persimmon tree is a producer, so the pine vole is a primary consumer.
The parasol fungus has arrows pointing to it from the pine vole and the black bear. Neither the pine vole nor the black bear is a producer, so the parasol fungus is not a primary consumer. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]What is the direction of this push?

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Salem's phenotype for the agouti fur trait?
Solution: Salem's genotype for the agouti fur gene is aa. Salem's genotype of aa has only a alleles. The a allele is for not having agouti fur. So, Salem's phenotype for the agouti fur trait must be not having agouti fur.
To check this answer, consider whether Salem's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for not having agouti fur (a) is recessive to the allele for having agouti fur (A). This means A is a dominant allele, and a is a recessive allele.
Salem's genotype of aa has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, Salem's phenotype for the agouti fur trait must be not having agouti fur. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Use the concentration formula to find the number of green particles per milliliter.
Solution B has more green particles per milliliter. So, Solution B has a higher concentration of green particles. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Compare the motion of two speed walkers. Which speed walker was moving at a lower speed?
Solution: Look at the distance each speed walker moved and the time it took to move that distance.
One speed walker moved 70 kilometers in 10 hours.
The other speed walker moved 75 kilometers in 10 hours.
Notice that each speed walker spent the same amount of time moving. The speed walker who moved 70 kilometers moved a shorter distance in that time. So, that speed walker must have moved at a lower speed. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which of these states is farthest north?

Solution: Look at the distance each fish moved and the time it took to move that distance.
One fish moved 20 miles in 5 hours.
The other fish moved 15 miles in 5 hours.
Notice that each fish spent the same amount of time moving. The fish that moved 20 miles moved a farther distance in that time. So, that fish must have moved at a higher speed. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which animal's feet are also adapted for digging?
Solution: Look at the picture of the European mole.
The European mole has long, straight claws. Its feet are adapted for digging. The European mole uses its claws to break up soil and move it out of the way.
Now look at each animal. Figure out which animal has a similar adaptation.
The groundhog has long, straight claws. Its feet are adapted for digging.
The tokay gecko has wide, sticky toes. Its feet are not adapted for digging. The tokay gecko uses its feet to climb trees and walk on leaves. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]The shopper lifts each bag at the same speed. Which bag is lifted with a larger force?
Solution: Look for the shopping bag that is heavier.
A shopping bag holding 5 pounds of food is heavier than a shopping bag holding 4 pounds of food. So, the bag holding 5 pounds needs a larger force to start moving upward at the same speed as the other bag. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Holly's phenotype for the body hair trait?
Solution: You need to determine Holly's phenotype for the body hair trait. First, consider the alleles in Holly's genotype for the body hair gene. Then, decide whether these alleles are dominant or recessive.
The allele for a hairy body (B) is dominant over the allele for a hairless body (b). This means B is a dominant allele, and b is a recessive allele.
Holly's genotype of Bb 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, Holly's phenotype for the body hair trait must be a hairy body. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Will these magnets attract or repel each other?
Solution: To predict if these magnets will attract or repel, 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. Opposite poles attract. So, these magnets will attract each other. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
