Question 9 • The correct answer is “B” having and orderly structure.
Question 10 • The best scientists once believed that the Earth was flat, now it is believed that the Earth is round; this is an example of science being: • A) empirically based • B) subjective • C) tentative • D) socially and culturally embedded
Question 10 • The correct answer is ‘C’ • Tentative means that it is subject to change.
Question 11 • Which of the following are considered abiotic factors in the environment? • A) water • B) temperature • C) sunlight • D) ladybug
Question 11 • The correct answer is A, B, C • Abiotic factors are non-living.
Question 12 • Bacteria breaks down a dead lion, this make the bacteria which of the following? • A) heterotroph • B) decomposer • C) autotroph • D) tertiary consumer
Question 12 • The correct answer is ‘B’. • A decomposer breaks down dead material.
Question 13 • The fact that science REQUIRES observation and data shows that science is… • A. tentative • B. empirically based • C. laws and theories • D. socially and culturally embedded
Question 13 • B. empirically based means that it is based upon data from observations
Question 14 • Which of the following is an example of quantitative data? • A) the room has 16 desks • B) the room is warm • C) there are 29 students in the room • D) the students in the room are smart
Question 14 • The answer is ‘A’ and ‘C’. • Qualitative data deals with measurements and numbers.
Question 15 • Which part of an experiment is the part that you change or manipulate? • A) dependant variable • B) control group • C) hypothesis • D) independent variable
Question 15 • The answer is ‘D’.
Question 16 • All of the squirrels living in Chicagoland is an example of… • A) a community • B) an ecosystem • C) an organism • D) a population
Question 16 • The answer is ‘D’. • A population is all the members of one species living in a given area.
Question 17 • Why is a pyramid a good representation of the energy structure in an ecosystem?
Question 17 • There is more energy at the bottom (producers) than the top since only 10% of the energy get transferred from one level to the next.
Question 18 • An experiment is set up to determine which color light makes an aquatic plant undergo photosynthesis the fastest. 4 different plants are placed under white, red, blue, and green light while a 5th is placed in the dark. All oxygen produced by the plant is captured and measured. • A) What is the independent variable? • B) What is the dependant variable? • C) What is the control group?
Question 18 • A) The independent variable is the thing that you manipulate- color of light. • B) the dependant variable is the thing that you measure- amount of oxygen produced • C) The control group is the group that does not have the variable- the plant in the dark.
Question 19 • What cycle is the picture depicting?
Question 19 • The answer is the water cycle.
