Question: [QUESTION]Which property do these three objects have in common? Solution: Look at each object. For each object, decide if it has that property. A shiny object reflects a lot of light. You can usually see your reflection in a shiny object. All three objects are shiny. A soft object changes shape when pressed or squeezed. None of the objects are soft. A translucent object lets light through. But you cannot see clearly through a translucent object. The sapphire is translucent, but the car bumper and the metal bar are not. The property that all three objects have in common is shiny.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Hera's phenotype for the coat color trait? Solution: Hera's genotype for the coat color gene is LL. Hera's genotype of LL has only L allelles. The L allele is for a black coat. So, Hera's phenotype for the coat color trait must be a black coat. To check this answer, consider whether Hera's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for a red coat (l) is recessive to the allele for a black coat (L). This means L is a dominant allele, and l is a recessive allele. Hera's genotype of LL has two dominant alleles. An organism with at least one dominant allele for a gene will have the dominant allele's version of the trait. So, Hera's phenotype for the coat color trait must be a black coat.

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common? mixing lettuce and salad dressing water vapor condensing on a bathroom mirror Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. Mixing lettuce and salad dressing is a physical change. Together, the salad and dressing make a mixture. But making this mixture does not form a different type of matter. Water vapor condensing on a bathroom mirror is a change of state. So, it is a physical change. The water changes state from gas in the air to liquid water on the mirror. But the water vapor and the liquid water are both made of water. 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. Water vapor condensing is caused by cooling. But mixing lettuce and salad dressing is not.

Question: [QUESTION]Which of the following organisms is the secondary consumer in this food web? Solution: Secondary consumers eat primary consumers, and primary consumers eat producers. So, in a food web, secondary consumers have arrows pointing to them from primary consumers. Primary consumers have arrows pointing to them from producers. The grizzly bear has an arrow pointing to it from the barren-ground caribou. The barren-ground caribou is a primary consumer, so the grizzly bear is a secondary consumer. The Arctic fox has an arrow pointing to it from the brown lemming. The brown lemming is a primary consumer, so the Arctic fox is a secondary consumer. The rough-legged hawk has an arrow pointing to it from the parasitic jaeger. The parasitic jaeger is not a primary consumer, so the rough-legged hawk is not a secondary consumer. The brown lemming has arrows pointing to it from the bilberry and the bear sedge. Neither the bilberry nor the bear sedge is a primary consumer, so the brown lemming is not a secondary consumer.
