What do these two changes have in common? rust forming on a metal gate plants making food from sunlight, air, and water
[ "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are caused by heating.", "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are only physical changes." ]
C
Step 1: Think about each change. Rust forming on a metal gate is a chemical change. As the gate rusts, the metal turns into a different type of matter called rust. Rust is reddish-brown and falls apart easily. Plants making food is a chemical change. Plants use energy from sunlight to change air and water into food. The food is sugar. Sugar is a different type of matter than air or water. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different. Both are caused by heating. Neither change is caused by heating. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Complete the sentence. The East Pacific Rise formed at a () boundary.
[ "divergent", "transform", "convergent" ]
A
To figure out what type of plate boundary formed the East Pacific Rise, you need to know how the tectonic plates interacted. To find this out, read the passage carefully. The East Pacific Rise is a massive underwater mountain range. It stretches from Mexico's Gulf of California almost all the way to Antarctica. The northernmost part of the East Pacific Rise is where the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate are moving away from each other, carrying the Baja Peninsula farther from mainland Mexico. The East Pacific Rise is growing quickly. The two plates are moving apart at a rate of 6 to 16 centimeters per year! The underlined part of the passage explains that the East Pacific Rise formed as the two plates moved away from each other, or diverged. So, the East Pacific Rise formed at a divergent boundary.

Every morning, Carla puts 79 apples in her backpack to eat for lunch. Unfortunately, Buffy stole some of Carla's apples on the school bus, and 26 apples fell out of a hole on the bottom. So at lunchtime, Carla only had 8 apples remaining. How many apples did Buffy steal from Carla?
null
45
Let B be the number of apples that Buffy stole. Then 79 - B - 26 = 8. Combining constants produces 53 - B = 8. Adding B to both sides produces 52 = B + 8 Thus the number of apples stolen by Buffy is B = 53 - 8 = <<53-8=45>>45. #### 45

Why might removing broken eggshells from the nest increase the reproductive success of a black-headed gull? Complete the claim below that answers this question and is best supported by the passage. Removing broken eggshells from the nest increases the chances that ().
[ "the gull's chicks will get food", "the gull's offspring will survive", "the gull will be away from its offspring at a given time" ]
B
Look for the part of the passage that describes the effect of removing broken eggshells from the nest. Use this information to determine why this behavior can increase the reproductive success of the black-headed gull. Choice "Black-headed gulls build their nests on the ground. The gulls' eggs, chicks, and nests are brown, so they blend in with the sand, twigs, and dry grass around them. But the inside of a gull's eggshell is white. When an egg hatches, the white of the broken eggshell stands out from the brown nest. This makes it easier for crows and other predators to find the nest and eat the offspring in it." is incorrect. Choice "After an egg hatches, the parent gull leaves the nest to carry the broken eggshell away. This helps the nest blend in with the environment again. It is harder for predators to find offspring in a nest that blends in with the environment." is correct. Choice "Choice "Removing broken eggshells from the nest increases the chances that the gull will be away from its offspring at a given time." is incorrect." is incorrect. Choice "Removing broken eggshells from the nest may increase the chances that the gull will be away from its offspring at a given time. But the passage does not support the claim that the gull can increase its reproductive success by being away from its offspring. Leaving the offspring alone in the nest could put them in danger. This could decrease the chances that the offspring will survive, which could decrease the gull's reproductive success." is incorrect. Choice "Choice "Removing broken eggshells from the nest increases the chances that the gull's chicks will get food." is incorrect." is incorrect. Choice "Getting food to the chicks could increase the chances that the gull's chicks will survive. This could increase the gull's reproductive success. But the passage does not discuss the chances that the gull's chicks will get food. So, the passage does not support this claim." is incorrect. Choice "Choice "Removing broken eggshells from the nest increases the chances that the gull's offspring will survive." is incorrect." is correct. Choice "According to the underlined text, it is harder for predators to find offspring when there are no broken eggshells in the nest. So, by removing broken eggshells from the nest, the parent gull decreases the chances that predators will eat the gull's offspring. This increases the chances that the gull's offspring will survive, which can increase its reproductive success." is incorrect.
