Question: [QUESTION]In this food web, which organism contains matter that eventually moves to the parasol fungus?
Solution: Use the arrows to follow how matter moves through this food web. For each answer choice, try to find a path of arrows to the parasol fungus.
There are two arrows pointing from the gray fox to other organisms. One arrow points to the bobcat. The only arrow pointing from the bobcat leads to the bolete fungus. The other arrow pointing from the gray fox leads to the bolete fungus. No arrows point from the bolete fungus to any other organisms. So, in this food web, matter does not move from the gray fox to the parasol fungus.
The only arrow pointing from the black racer leads to the bolete fungus. No arrows point from the bolete fungus to any other organisms. So, in this food web, matter does not move from the black racer to the parasol fungus.There is one path matter can take from the black bear to the parasol fungus: black bear->parasol fungus. There are two paths matter can take from the swallowtail caterpillar to the parasol fungus: swallowtail caterpillar->pine vole->parasol fungus. swallowtail caterpillar->black bear->parasol fungus. bobcat. The only arrow pointing from the bobcat leads to the bolete fungus. No arrows point from the bolete fungus to any other organisms. So, in this food web, matter does not move from the bobcat to the parasol fungus.. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Complete the statement.
Dichloromethane is ().
Solution: You can tell whether dichloromethane is an elementary substance or a compound by counting the number of atomic symbols in its chemical formula. An atomic symbol consists of either one capital letter or a capital letter followed by one or two lowercase letters.
The chemical formula for dichloromethane, CH2 Cl2, contains three atomic symbols: C for carbon, H for hydrogen, and Cl for chlorine. So, the formula tells you that dichloromethane is composed of three chemical elements bonded together.
Since dichloromethane is composed of multiple chemical elements bonded together, dichloromethane is a compound. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]Which country is highlighted?
Solution: This country is Vanuatu.
Does Vanuatu have any territorial disputes?
Vanuatu claims to own Matthew and Hunter Islands, which are disputed islands. In other words, multiple countries or groups claim that the islands rightfully belong to them.
France has controlled the islands since 1929. But shortly after gaining independence in 1980, Vanuatu claimed to rightfully own the islands. It points to underwater geographic features and legends passed down by its people to argue that it has stronger connections to the islands than France. No one lives on the islands today. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Solution: Look at the table showing the events from the timeline:
632 Muhammad, the founder and most important prophet in the religion of Islam, dies.
632–685 The first four caliphs, called the Rightly Guided Caliphs, rule.
685–750 The Umayyad Caliphate rules.
750–945 The Abbasid Caliphate rules.
910 The Fatimid Caliphate begins in North Africa.
According to the table, Muhammad, the founder of Islam, died in 632. The table also shows that the Abbasid Caliphate started to rule around the year 750. To calculate how many years are between 750 and 632, use subtraction:
So, the Abbasid Caliphate started to rule in 750, around 120 years after the death of Muhammad in 632. The timeline also shows that the Abbasids came to power after the Abbasid Revolution, which ended the Umayyad Caliphate. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which figure of speech is used in this text?
The salesperson tried hard to convince Preston that the jacket was a good buy; after all, it was made of genuine imitation leather.

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
dust settling out of the air
pouring milk on oatmeal
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
Dust settling out of the air is a physical change. As the dust settles, or falls, it might land on furniture or the ground. This separates dust particles from the air, but does not form a different type of matter.
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.
Neither change is caused by heating.
Both are caused by cooling.
Neither change is caused by cooling. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Solution: The first text uses factoid in its traditional sense: something made up presented as a true fact.
The Rockport Daily Mail was forced to issue a retraction after printing a factoid about Rockport's founder. It turned out that the reporter had written the article based on local legend rather than researching the actual history.
The second text uses factoid in its nontraditional sense: a trivial but true fact.
A reporter for the Rockport Daily Mail dug up an amusing factoid about Rockport's founder while researching for an article about the town's early years.
Most style guides recommend to use the traditional sense of the word factoid because it is considered more standard. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
