11. What causes day and night on Earth? Tilting of Earth’s axis rotation of Earth on its axis movement of Earth around the sun movement of the sun around Earth A 400

12. B. rotation of Earth on its axis. A 400

13. Which illustration correctly depicts the movement of Earth, the sun and the moon? A 500

14. A 500

15. What is the result of the rotation of Earth? four seasons day and night the calendar year the moon’s changing size B 100

16. B. Day and night B 100

17. Which best explains why the amount of daylight increases each day in Ohio as the summer months approach? Earth is moving closer to the sun. The rotation of the Earth is slowing down. The moon is reflecting more light from the sun. The Northern Hemisphere is tilting more toward the sun. B 200

18. D. The Northern Hemisphere is tilting more toward the sun. B 200

19. What determines the length of one day on Earth? The time it takes Earth to circle the sun. The time it takes the moon to circle Earth. The time it takes the Earth to rotate on its axis. The time it takes the sun to spin around its axis. B 300

20. C. The time it takes the Earth to rotate on its axis. B 300

21. Why is the Northern Hemisphere warmer in summer than in winter? Earth is moving more quickly in its orbit around the sun. Less sunlight shines on the Northern Hemisphere in summer. The sun give off more heat in the summer than in the winter. More direct sunlight shines on the Northern Hemisphere in summer. B 400

22. D. More direct sunlight shines on the Northern Hemisphere in summer. B 400

23. About how long does it take Earth to complete on orbit around the sun? one day one month one year one century B 500

24. C. One year B 500

25. What is the most common cause of earthquakes? The sinking of the ocean floor Movements of the Earth’s crust Unequal heating of the atmosphere Giant waves caused by the pull of the moon C 100

26. B. Movements of the Earth’s crust C 100

27. How do some plants break rocks into smaller pieces? Plant stems surround and squeeze rocks until they break. Plant root grow into cracks in the rocks, forcing them apart. Plant leaves protect the rocks from extreme temperatures. So if there are no leaves, there is no protection and they break. Plants fall into rocks and release their powerful chemicals. C 200

28. B. Plant root grow into cracks in the rocks, forcing them apart. C 200

29. A farmer wishes to reduce the erosion of topsoil caused by heavy spring rains on his farm. How should be plow his fields? C 300

30. C 300

31. DAILY DOUBLE DAILY DOUBLE Place A Wager C 400

32. A science class built the models shown to the right to conduct an investigation. Students poured the same amount of water over both models. They observed that in Model A, most of the soil emptied out of the container. In Model B, only a small amount of soil emptied out of the container. What were the students studying in their investigations? A the rock cycle B the impact of volcanoes C the force of earthquakes D the effects of water erosion C 400

33. D. the effects of water erosion C 400

34. This rock was brought to school. The class found fossils of water plants and shells in the rock. What does this tell us about the rock? The rock is a type of marble. The rock is heavier than most rocks. The rock was formed form cooled magma. The rock was once at the bottom of the sea. C 500

35. D. The rock was once at the bottom of the sea. C 500

45. D 500

46. Which of these resources for home building is renewable? Oil Copper Lumber Aluminum E 100

47. C. Lumber E 100

48. A farmer sees an area of land he believes will be good for farming because of its rich topsoil. Which process contributed most to forming this topsoil? Sand storms Ocean currents Decaying of plant life Folding of Earth’s crust E 200

49. C. Decaying of plant life E 200

50. The police arrested a person they suspected of a crime. The police scraped soil from the suspect’s shoes for evidence that he was at a certain location. Why did the police decide to scrape his shoes? Footprints are often left in soft dirt. Each shoe leaves a unique footprint. Shoes react differently to different soils. Soils differ from place to place in color and texture E 300
