Question: [QUESTION]Which country is highlighted?
Solution: This country is the Dominican Republic.
Why does the Dominican Republic share its island with another country?
The Dominican Republic and Haiti share the island of Hispaniola. It is home to the earliest European settlements in the Americas. Christopher Columbus founded the first European settlement on the island in 1492 during his first voyage across the Atlantic.
Though many people lived on the island before Columbus's arrival, European countries quickly began to colonize the island. Eventually France and Spain both established colonies. The Spanish colony eventually became the country of the Dominican Republic, and the French colony eventually became the country of Haiti. Today, people in the two countries speak different languages and have many cultural differences.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Chloe's phenotype for the ear type trait?
Solution: Chloe's genotype for the ear type gene is EE. Chloe's genotype of EE has only E allelles. The E allele is for curled ears. So, Chloe's phenotype for the ear type trait must be curled ears.
To check this answer, consider whether Chloe's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for straight ears (e) is recessive to the allele for curled ears (E). This means E is a dominant allele, and e is a recessive allele.
Chloe's genotype of EE 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, Chloe's phenotype for the ear type trait must be curled ears.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is Blaze's phenotype for the horns trait?
Solution: Blaze's genotype for the horns gene is hh. Blaze's genotype of hh has only h alleles. The h allele is for having horns. So, Blaze's phenotype for the horns trait must be having horns.
To check this answer, consider whether Blaze's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for not having horns (H) is dominant over the allele for having horns (h). This means H is a dominant allele, and h is a recessive allele.
Blaze's genotype of hh has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, Blaze's phenotype for the horns trait must be having horns.

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 2 attract. The magnets in Pair 1 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.
Magnet sizes affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Imagine magnets that are the same shape and made of the same material. The smaller the magnets, the smaller the magnitude of the magnetic force between them.
Magnet A is the same size in both pairs. But Magnet B is smaller 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]Based on this information, what is Bambi's phenotype for the wool color trait?
Solution: Bambi's genotype for the wool color gene is LL. Bambi's genotype of LL has only L allelles. The L allele is for white wool. So, Bambi's phenotype for the wool color trait must be white wool.
To check this answer, consider whether Bambi's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for black wool (l) is recessive to the allele for white wool (L). This means L is a dominant allele, and l is a recessive allele.
Bambi'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, Bambi's phenotype for the wool color trait must be white wool.

Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is this fruit fly's phenotype for the antenna type trait?
Solution: An organism's phenotype for a trait is its observable version of that trait. The fruit fly's observable version of the antenna type trait is mutated antennae. So, the fly's phenotype for the antenna type trait is mutated antennae.

Question: [QUESTION]Which animal's legs are also adapted for wading?
Solution: Look at the picture of the painted stork.
Long legs help the painted stork keep its body above the surface of the water while wading. Thin legs are easier to move through the water.
Now look at each animal. Figure out which animal has a similar adaptation.
The Eurasian spoonbill has long, thin legs. Its legs are adapted for wading.
The flying fox has short legs. Its legs are not adapted for wading. The flying fox uses its legs to hang from trees.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the statement.
Glucose is ().
Solution: You can tell whether glucose is an elementary substance or a compound by counting the number of symbols in its chemical formula. A symbol contains either one capital letter or a capital letter followed by one or two lowercase letters.
The chemical formula for glucose is C6 H12 O6. This formula contains three symbols: C for carbon, H for hydrogen, and O for oxygen. So, the formula tells you that glucose is made of three chemical elements bonded together.
Substances made of two or more chemical elements bonded together are compounds. So, glucose is a compound.

Question: [QUESTION]What is the expected ratio of offspring with an unspotted tail to offspring with a spotted tail? Choose the most likely ratio.
Solution: To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with an unspotted tail or a spotted tail, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the tail spots trait. The question tells you that the I allele, which is for a spotted tail, is dominant over the i allele, which is for an unspotted tail.
An unspotted tail is the recessive allele's version of the tail spots trait. A guppy with the recessive version of the tail spots trait must have only recessive alleles for the tail spots gene. So, offspring with an unspotted tail must have the genotype ii.
There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype ii.
A spotted tail is the dominant allele's version of the tail spots trait. A guppy with the dominant version of the tail spots trait must have at least one dominant allele for the tail spots gene. So, offspring with a spotted tail must have the genotype II or Ii.
All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype II or Ii.
So, the expected ratio of offspring with an unspotted tail to offspring with a spotted tail is 0:4. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will never produce offspring with an unspotted tail. Instead, this cross is expected to always produce offspring with a spotted tail.

Question: [QUESTION]Which property do these four objects have in common?
Solution: Look at each object.
For each object, decide if it has that property.
You can see clearly through a transparent object. The candy sprinkles, the ice pop, and the ice cream sundae are not transparent.
A hard object does not change shape when pressed or squeezed. The ice pop is hard, but the ice cream sundae and the jello are not.
Sugar has a sweet taste. All four objects are sweet.
The property that all four objects have in common is sweet.

Question: [QUESTION]Select the organism in the same genus as the Ural owl.
Solution: A Ural owl's scientific name is Strix uralensis. The first word of its scientific name is Strix.
Strix aluco is in the genus Strix. The first word of its scientific name is Strix. So, Strix aluco and Strix uralensis are in the same genus.
Ardea goliath is in the genus Ardea. The first word of its scientific name is Ardea. So, Ardea goliath and Strix uralensis are not in the same genus.
Falco peregrinus is in the genus Falco. The first word of its scientific name is Falco. So, Falco peregrinus and Strix uralensis are not in the same genus.

Question: [QUESTION]Which solution has a higher concentration of yellow particles?
Solution: In Solution A and Solution B, the yellow particles represent the solute. To figure out which solution has a higher concentration of yellow particles, look at both the number of yellow particles and the volume of the solvent in each container.
Use the concentration formula to find the number of yellow particles per milliliter.
Solution B has more yellow particles per milliliter. So, Solution B has a higher concentration of yellow particles.
