Question: [QUESTION]Compare the average kinetic energies of the particles in each sample. Which sample has the higher temperature? Solution: The particles in both samples have the same average speed, but each particle in sample A has more mass than each particle 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]Which statement is supported by these pictures? Solution: The douc has long fingers and toes. It has gray fur on its chest and belly. This drawing shows the bones of long fingers and toes. So, Mesopithecus had long fingers and toes. The drawing of Mesopithecus does not show fur. So, you cannot tell from the fossil whether Mesopithecus had gray fur. Choice "The douc has gray fur, and so did Mesopithecus." is incorrect. This statement is not supported by the pictures. You cannot tell the color of Mesopithecus's fur from its fossil. Choice "The douc has long fingers and toes, and so did Mesopithecus." is incorrect. This statement is supported by the pictures. You can see that the douc has long fingers and toes. From Mesopithecus's fossil, you can tell that it also had long fingers and toes.

Question: [QUESTION]Which logical fallacy is used in the text? Since Emma Wilkinson became vice president of the parent-teacher association, student performance has declined and teacher morale is down. We on the school board believe that Wilkinson bears sole responsibility for the downtrend. Solution: The text argues that Emma Wilkinson is responsible for the decline in student performance and teacher morale. However, even though things declined after Wilkinson became vice president of the parent-teacher association, that doesn't necessarily mean that she caused the downturn. This illustrates a type of logical fallacy known as false causation.

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

Question: [QUESTION]Compare the average kinetic energies of the particles in each sample. Which sample has the higher temperature? Solution: The particles in both samples have the same average speed, but each particle in sample A has more mass than each particle 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.
