Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
butter melting on a hot day
cooking an egg
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.
Cooking an egg is a chemical change. The heat causes the matter in the egg to change. Cooked egg and raw egg are different types of matter.
Step 2: Look at each answer choice.
Both are only physical changes.
Butter melting on a hot day is a physical change. But cooking an egg is not.
Both are chemical changes.
Cooking an egg is a chemical change. But butter melting on a hot day is not.
Both are caused by heating.
Both changes are caused by heating.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Biscotti's phenotype for the fur texture trait?
Solution: Biscotti's genotype for the fur texture gene is ff. Biscotti's genotype of ff has only f alleles. The f allele is for wavy fur. So, Biscotti's phenotype for the fur texture trait must be wavy fur.
To check this answer, consider whether Biscotti's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for straight fur (F) is dominant over the allele for wavy fur (f). This means F is a dominant allele, and f is a recessive allele.
Biscotti'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, Biscotti's phenotype for the fur texture trait must be wavy fur. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which bird's beak is also adapted to filter through mud?
Solution: Look at the picture of the ringed teal.
The ringed teal has a wide, flat beak. Its beak is adapted to filter through mud. The ringed teal gathers muddy water in its beak. Then, it pushes the water out through gaps along the sides of the beak. Bits of food, such as plant roots, are left behind inside the teal's beak.
Now look at each bird. Figure out which bird has a similar adaptation.
The mallard has a wide, flat beak. Its beak is adapted to filter through mud.
The hanging parrot has a small hooked beak. Its beak is not adapted to filter through mud. The hanging parrot uses its beak to eat fruit and seeds. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]What is the source of the allusion in the sentence below?

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
erosion caused by wind
beating an egg
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
Erosion caused by wind is a physical change. The wind carries away tiny pieces of rock. But the pieces of rock do not become a different type of matter.
Beating an egg is a physical change. Beating an egg mixes together the egg white, egg yolk, and some air. But mixing them together 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.

Because the particles in sample A have the higher average kinetic energy, sample A must have the higher temperature. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence.
The Juan de Fuca Ridge formed at a () boundary.
Solution: To figure out what type of plate boundary formed the Juan de Fuca Ridge, you need to know how the tectonic plates interacted. To find this out, read the passage carefully.
The Juan de Fuca Ridge is a mid-ocean ridge located off the coast of Washington State and southern Canada. This ridge grows as the Pacific Plate and the Juan de Fuca Plate move away from each other. The Juan de Fuca Ridge contains many hydrothermal vents, where hot water spews out from beneath Earth’s crust. In these vents, scientists have discovered single-celled organisms that can survive at temperatures up to 250 degrees Fahrenheit!
The underlined part of the passage explains that the Juan de Fuca Ridge formed as the two plates moved away from each other, or diverged. So, the Juan de Fuca Ridge formed at a divergent boundary. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |

Question: [QUESTION]Read the following excerpt from a student essay. How can the writer best improve his or her organization?
When I worked on my grandparents' farm one summer, I spent a lot of time caring for animals—feeding chickens and pigs, milking cows, and grooming horses. I decided to become a vegetarian. As a vegetarian, I eat lots of fruit, vegetables, grains, and dairy products. At first, I thought it would be hard to eat enough food to feel full, but that hasn't been the case. Beans and cheese are my main sources of protein now, and they keep me full for hours. I'm so thankful that I can express my love of animals—all animals—by not eating them.
Solution: The writer could best improve his or her organization by adding a transition between the first two sentences.
For example, the writer could provide a smoother transition between the first two sentences by adding text such as After realizing how much I love animals, I couldn't bear the idea of eating meat anymore.
