Why might grooming eggs increase the reproductive success of a female European earwig? Complete the claim below that answers this question and is best supported by the passage. Grooming eggs increases the chances that ().
[ "the female will spend time near her offspring", "the female will produce more eggs", "the female's offspring will survive" ]
C
Look for the part of the passage that describes the effect of grooming eggs. Use this information to determine why this behavior can increase the reproductive success of the female European earwig. Choice "European earwigs are small insects that raise their offspring in cool, moist soil. After earwigs mate, females lay their eggs in underground nests. Females often groom, or clean, their eggs. The females lick their eggs and turn them over in the nest to groom them." is incorrect. Choice "When female earwigs groom eggs, the eggs hatch more often. This is because grooming helps to remove mold from the surface of the eggs. Mold often lives in the soil around the nest and can infect and kill the eggs." is incorrect. Choice "Choice "Grooming eggs increases the chances that the female's offspring will survive." is incorrect." is correct. Choice "According to the underlined text, grooming eggs helps remove mold from the surface of the eggs. So, by grooming eggs, the female earwig decreases the chances that mold will infect and kill the eggs. This increases the chances that the female's offspring will survive, which can increase her reproductive success." is incorrect. Choice "Choice "Grooming eggs increases the chances that the female will spend time near her offspring." is incorrect." is incorrect. Choice "To increase her reproductive success, the female earwig needs to have offspring that survive to reproduce. Spending time near her offspring does not directly increase the female's chances of producing offspring that survive to reproduce. So, spending time near her offspring is not why grooming eggs increases the female's reproductive success." is incorrect. Choice "Choice "Grooming eggs increases the chances that the female will produce more eggs." is incorrect." is incorrect. Choice "Producing more eggs could increase the chances that the female earwig will have more surviving offspring. This could increase her reproductive success. But the passage does not discuss the chances that the female will produce more eggs. So, the passage does not support this claim." is incorrect.

Missy had a giant piggy bank in her bedroom. Every day she would search the house for change to put in her bank. After 4 years, the bank was opened and it contained $450 in change. If the second, third, and fourth-year she doubled the amount of money she put in the bank from the amount she had put in the previous year, how much money, in dollars, did she put in the bank the first year?
null
30
We let x be the amount of money she put in the bank the first year, Then the second year was 2*x, and the third year was 2*2*x=4*x, and the fourth year was 2*2*2*x=8*x. And the total amount she put in the bank, $450, is the sum of all four years, or $450 = x+(2*x)+(4*x)+(8*x). This simplifies to $450=15*x. And therefore, the amount of money she put in the bank the first year was x=$<<30=30>>30. #### 30

Samuel swept the porch and cleared nine-tenths of the dust particles from it. As he walked across the porch afterward, his shoes left 223 dust particles behind. How many dust particles were on the porch before Samuel swept if there were 331 after he walked across it?

1080
Before Samuel walked across the porch, there were 331 - 223 = <<331-223=108>>108 dust particles. Those 108 were 1/10 of the original amount, so there were 108 * 10 = <<108*10=1080>>1080 dust particles on the porch before Samuel swept. #### 1080

Rebecca drinks half a bottle of soda a day. She bought three 6-packs of sodas the last time she was at the store. How many bottles of soda will she have left after four weeks?

Rebecca bought 3 * 6 = <<3*6=18>>18 bottles of soda. A week is 7 days, so she will drink 4 * 7 = <<4*7=28>>28 half bottles of soda in four weeks. A bottle is two half bottles, so she will drink 28 / 2 = <<28/2=14>>14 bottles of soda in four weeks. Thus, after 4 weeks, she will have 18 - 14 = <<18-14=4>>4 bottles of soda left. #### 4

[ "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 2.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1." ]
C
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. Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a smaller distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is greater. There is a smaller distance between the magnets in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is greater in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

What type of rock is andesite?
[ "igneous", "metamorphic" ]
A
Andesite is an igneous rock. Like other igneous rocks, it forms when melted rock cools and hardens. Melted rock is a hot, thick liquid. As melted rock cools, solid mineral grains begin to form. When the melted rock becomes solid, it forms igneous rock. The word igneous comes from the Latin word ignis, which means fire.

John decides to start collecting art. He pays the same price for his first 3 pieces of art and the total price came to $45,000. The next piece of art was 50% more expensive than those. How much did all the art cost?
null

The first 3 pieces each cost 45000/3=$<<45000/3=15000>>15,000 So the next piece was 15,000*.5=$<<15000*.5=7500>>7,500 more expensive That means it cost 15,000+7,500=$<<15000+7500=22500>>22,500 That means in total he spent 45,000+22,500=$67,500 #### 67,500

Compare the motion of three sailboats. Which sailboat was moving at the lowest speed?
[ "a sailboat that moved 65kilometers west in 10hours", "a sailboat that moved 55kilometers north in 10hours", "a sailboat that moved 90kilometers east in 10hours" ]
B
Look at the distance each sailboat moved and the time it took to move that distance. The direction each sailboat moved does not affect its speed. Notice that each sailboat moved for 10 hours. The sailboat that moved 55 kilometers moved the shortest distance in that time. So, that sailboat must have moved at the lowest speed.

Which bird's beak is also adapted to crack large, hard nuts?
[ "Alexandrine parakeet", "spotted dove" ]
A
Look at the picture of the hyacinth macaw. The hyacinth macaw has a thick hooked beak. Its beak is adapted to crack large, hard nuts. The hyacinth macaw uses its thick beak to crack the shell of a nut by squeezing it. The hooked shape of the beak can help the bird hold the nut in place while cracking it. Now look at each bird. Figure out which bird has a similar adaptation. The Alexandrine parakeet has a thick hooked beak. Its beak is adapted to crack large, hard nuts. The spotted dove has a short, thin beak. Its beak is not adapted to crack large, hard nuts.

With 40 seconds left to play in the basketball game, the Dunkinville Hornets were leading the Fredingo Fireflies by a score of 86 to 74. In the remaining seconds in the game, the Fireflies scored 7 three-point baskets while holding the Hornets to only 2 two-point baskets to win the game. How many more points did the Fireflies score in the game than did the Hornets?
null

In the final 40 seconds, the Fireflies scored seven 3-point baskets to improve their score by 3*7=<<7*3=21>>21 points. Thus, the Fireflies final total was 74+21=<<74+21=95>>95 points. In the final 40 seconds, the hornets scored an additional two 2-point baskets to improve their score by 2*2=<<2*2=4>>4 points. Thus, the Hornets final total was 86+4=<<86+4=90>>90 points. The final difference in points between the two teams was 95-90=<<95-90=5>>5 points. #### 5

Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?
[ "The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2." ]
A
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. 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.
