[ "Python reticulatus", "Cervus canadensis", "Python bivittatus" ]
C
A Burmese python's scientific name is Python bivittatus. Cervus canadensis does not have the same scientific name as a Burmese python. So, Python bivittatus and Cervus canadensis are not in the same species. Python bivittatus is in the same genus as Python reticulatus, but they are not in the same species. Organisms in the same species have the same scientific names. Python bivittatus and Python reticulatus are different species within the same genus. Python bivittatus has the same scientific name as a Burmese python. So, these organisms are in the same species.

A small zoo houses a variety of 68 wild animals. After they send a gorilla family of six to a different zoo, they adopt a hippopotamus from another zoo. A while later, an animal rescue contacted them, and the zoo took in three endangered rhinos. Then one of their lionesses gave birth to cubs, and they opened a meerkat exhibit with twice as many meerkats as they had gained lion cubs. The zoo then had 90 animals in all. How many lion cubs were born at the zoo?
null

Let C be the number of lion cubs. There are 2C meerkats in the new exhibit. The zoo sent 4 gorillas away, so they had 68 - 6 = <<68-6=62>>62 animals left. They adopted a hippopotamus, so they had 62 + 1 = <<62+1=63>>63 animals. They took in 3 rhinos, so they had 63 + 3 = <<63+3=66>>66 animals. Thus, they had 90 - 66 = <<90-66=24>>24 new lion cubs and meerkats. Therefore, they had C + 2C = 3C = 24 new lion cubs as meerkats. Hence, there were C = 24 / 3 = <<24/3=8>>8 lion cubs born. #### 8

[ "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 2.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1." ]

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 larger the magnets, the greater the magnitude of the magnetic force between them. Magnet A is the same size in both pairs. But Magnet B is larger in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 2 than in Pair 1.

[ "to the right than to the left", "to the left than to the right" ]
B
Look at the diagram again. It shows you how the solution changed during the process of diffusion. Before the solute particles reached equilibrium, there was 1 solute particle on the left side of the membrane and 5 solute particles on the right side of the membrane. When the solute particles reached equilibrium, there were 3 solute particles on each side of the membrane. There were 2 more solute particles on the left side of the membrane than before. So, for the solute particles to reach equilibrium, more solute particles must have moved across the membrane to the left than to the right.

In a graveyard, there are 20 skeletons. Half of these skeletons are adult women, and the remaining number are split evenly between adult men and children. If an adult woman has 20 bones in their body, and a male has 5 more than this, and a child has half as many as an adult woman, how many bones are in the graveyard?
null
375
We first need to figure out how many of each type of skeleton there are. Since half the 20 skeletons are adult women, that means there are 20/2=<<20/2=10>>10 adult women's skeletons. The remaining half, 10, is split between adult men and children, meaning there are 10/2= <<10/2=5>>5 of each. Since an adult woman has 20 bones in their body, this means that the 10 skeletons have 20*10=<<20*10=200>>200 bones in total. Since an adult man has 5 more bones in their body than an adult woman, this means they have 20+5= <<20+5=25>>25 bones in their body. There are 5 adult men, meaning there are 25*5=<<25*5=125>>125 bones in the adult male skeletons in total. Since a child has half as many bones as the 20 in an adult woman, this means the children have 20/2= <<20/2=10>>10 bones in their body. Since there are 5 children, this means there are 5*10= <<5*10=50>>50 bones in the children's skeletons in total. Therefore, altogether there are 50+125+200= <<50+125+200=375>>375 bones in total in the graveyard. #### 375

An eagle can fly 15 miles per hour; a falcon can fly 46 miles per hour; a pelican can fly 33 miles per hour; a hummingbird can fly 30 miles per hour. If the eagle, the falcon, the pelican, and the hummingbird flew for 2 hours straight, how many miles in total did the birds fly?
null
248
An eagle can fly 15 x 2 = <<15*2=30>>30 miles for 2 hours. A falcon can fly 46 x 2 = <<46*2=92>>92 miles for 2 hours. A pelican can fly 33 x 2 = <<33*2=66>>66 miles for 2 hours. A hummingbird can fly 30 x 2 = <<30*2=60>>60 miles for 2 hours. Therefore, the birds flew a total of 30 + 92 + 66 + 60 = <<30+92+66+60=248>>248 miles for 2 hours. #### 248

Barbara wants to save up for a new wristwatch that costs $100. Her parents give her an allowance of $5 a week and she can either save it all up for the watch or spend it as she wishes. 10 weeks pass and due to spending some of her money on ice cream, Barbara currently only has $20. How many more weeks does she need to save for a watch if she stops spending on other things right now?
null

An auto shop buys tires to replace all the tires on every customer’s car. They buy the tires as soon as cars are brought into the shop. There are four cars in the shop already, and another six customers come into the shop throughout the week. Some of the customers decide they don't want any of the tires changing, and two customers decide they only want half the tires changing. They had no tires in stock at the start of the week. If the shop has 20 tires left at the end of the week, how many customers decided they did not want their tires changing?
null
4
A total of 4 + 6 = <<4+6=10>>10 cars are in the shop throughout the week. This means the shop buys 10 cars * 4 tires = <<10*4=40>>40 tires. For each of the customers that only want half the tires changing, there are 4 tires * 0.5 = <<4*0.5=2>>2 tires left over. Two of the customers only want half the tires changing, so there are 2 tires * 2 cars = <<2*2=4>>4 tires left over from these customers. Out of the remaining tires, there are 20 – 4 = <<20-4=16>>16 tires left from customers who don't want their tires changing. So in total, there were 16 tires / 4 tires per customer = <<16/4=4>>4 customers who did not want their tires changing. #### 4

Five friends eat at a fast-food chain and order the following: 5 pieces of hamburger that cost $3 each; 4 sets of French fries that cost $1.20; 5 cups of soda that cost $0.5 each; and 1 platter of spaghetti that cost $2.7. How much will each of them pay if they will split the bill equally?
null
5
The cost of 5 pieces of hamburger is $3 x 5 = $<<3*5=15>>15. The cost of 4 sets of French fries is $1.20 x 4 = $<<1.20*4=4.80>>4.80. The cost of 5 cups of soda is $0.5 x 5 = $<<0.5*5=2.50>>2.50. So their total bill is $15 + $4.80 + $2.50 +$2.7 = $<<15+4.8+2.5+2.7=25>>25. Hence, each of the five friends will contribute $25/5 = $<<25/5=5>>5. #### 5

Which solution has a higher concentration of purple particles?
[ "neither; their concentrations are the same", "Solution B", "Solution A" ]
B
In Solution A and Solution B, the purple particles represent the solute. To figure out which solution has a higher concentration of purple particles, look at both the number of purple particles and the volume of the solvent in each container. Use the concentration formula to find the number of purple particles per milliliter. Solution B has more purple particles per milliliter. So, Solution B has a higher concentration of purple particles.

What is the expected ratio of offspring with normal wings to offspring with vestigial wings? Choose the most likely ratio.
[ "3:1", "0:4", "2:2", "4:0", "1:3" ]
B
To determine how many boxes in the Punnett square represent offspring with normal wings or vestigial wings, consider whether each phenotype is the dominant or recessive allele's version of the wing type trait. The question tells you that the N allele, which is for normal wings, is dominant over the n allele, which is for vestigial wings. Normal wings is the dominant allele's version of the wing type trait. A fruit fly with the dominant version of the wing type trait must have at least one dominant allele for the wing type gene. So, offspring with normal wings must have the genotype NN or Nn. There are 0 boxes in the Punnett square with the genotype NN or Nn. Vestigial wings is the recessive allele's version of the wing type trait. A fruit fly with the recessive version of the wing type trait must have only recessive alleles for the wing type gene. So, offspring with vestigial wings must have the genotype nn. All 4 boxes in the Punnett square have the genotype nn. So, the expected ratio of offspring with normal wings to offspring with vestigial wings is 0:4. This means that, based on the Punnett square, this cross will never produce offspring with normal wings. Instead, this cross is expected to always produce offspring with vestigial wings.
