Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true? Solution: The magnets in Pair 1 attract. The magnets in Pair 2 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a greater distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is smaller. There is a greater distance between the magnets in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring that have Thomsen disease to offspring that do not have Thomsen disease? Choose the most likely ratio. Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring that do or do not have Thomsen disease, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the Thomsen disease trait. The question tells you that the M allele, which is for having Thomsen disease, is dominant over the m allele, which is for not having Thomsen disease. Having Thomsen disease is the dominant allele's version of the Thomsen disease trait. A human with the dominant version of the Thomsen disease trait must have at least one dominant allele for the Thomsen disease gene. So, offspring that have Thomsen disease must have the genotype MM or Mm. There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype MM or Mm. These boxes are highlighted below. Not having Thomsen disease is the recessive allele's version of the Thomsen disease trait. A human with the recessive version of the Thomsen disease trait must have only recessive alleles for the Thomsen disease gene. So, offspring that do not have Thomsen disease must have the genotype mm. There are 2 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype mm. These boxes are highlighted below. So, the expected ratio of offspring that have Thomsen disease to offspring that do not have Thomsen disease is 2:2. This means that, on average, this cross will produce 2 offspring that have Thomsen disease for every 2 offspring that do not have Thomsen disease.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence. In this chemical reaction, potassium nitrate is a (). Solution: Read the underlined text carefully. Look for information about what happens to potassium nitrate in this chemical reaction. People have used gunpowder as an explosive for hundreds of years. Gunpowder is a mixture of three different substances: potassium nitrate, charcoal, and sulfur. When these substances are burned together, they release a large amount of heat and gas. In the past, gunpowder was used in muskets and cannons, but today, it is mainly used in fireworks. The underlined text tells you that when potassium nitrate, charcoal, and sulfur combine, a large amount of heat and gas is released. When potassium nitrate, charcoal, and sulfur react, or go through a chemical change, their atoms are rearranged.
