What do these two changes have in common? a banana getting ripe on the counter deep-frying chicken
[ "Both are chemical changes.", "Both are caused by cooling.", "Both are only physical changes.", "Both are caused by heating." ]
A
Step 1: Think about each change. A banana getting ripe on the counter is a chemical change. As a banana ripens, the type of matter in it changes. The peel changes color and the inside becomes softer and sweeter. Deep-frying chicken is a chemical change. The heat causes the matter in the chicken to change. Cooked chicken and raw chicken are different types of matter. 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. Cooking is caused by heating. But a banana getting ripe is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Complete the text to describe the diagram. Solute particles moved in both directions across the permeable membrane. But more solute particles moved across the membrane (). When there was an equal concentration on both sides, the particles reached equilibrium.
[ "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 were 3 solute particles 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 4 solute particles on each side of the membrane. There was 1 more solute particle 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.

Based on this information, what is this plant's phenotype for the seed color trait?
[ "light brown seeds", "dark brown seeds" ]
A
The bitter melon plant's genotype for the seed color gene is dd. The bitter melon plant's genotype of dd has only d alleles. The d allele is for light brown seeds. So, the bitter melon plant's phenotype for the seed color trait must be light brown seeds. To check this answer, consider whether the bitter melon plant's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for dark brown seeds (D) is dominant over the allele for light brown seeds (d). This means D is a dominant allele, and d is a recessive allele. The bitter melon plant's genotype of dd has only recessive alleles. An organism with only recessive alleles for a gene will have the recessive allele's version of the trait. So, the bitter melon plant's phenotype for the seed color trait must be light brown seeds.

Melody planted sunflowers from two different seed packets. She found that the sunflowers from Packet A were 20% taller than the sunflowers from Packet B. If the sunflowers from Packet A were 192 inches tall, how tall were the sunflowers from Packet B?
null
160
The height of the sunflowers from Packet A is the same as the height of the sunflowers from Packet B + 20%. If Y represents the height of the sunflowers from Packet B, Y + 0.20Y = the height of sunflowers from Packet A. We know the height of the sunflowers from Packet A is 192 inches = Y + 0.20Y or 1.2Y. To figure out Y, we would divide both sides of the equation by 1.2, like this: 192 / 1.2 = 1.2Y / 1.2 or 160 = Y. #### 160

If John travels 15 miles on a bike ride, and Jill travels 5 miles less, how many miles does Jim travel if he travels only 20% as far as Jill?
null
2
To find how far Jim travels, we must first find out how far Jill did. To do this, we perform 15-5=<<15-5=10>>10 miles in total for Jill. We then multiply 10*.20= 2 miles in total for Jim, since he only traveled 20% of the distance Jill did. #### 2

A group of hawks is called a kettle. It is breeding season for hawks. A group of ornithologists are tracking 6 kettles of hawks. Each kettle has an average of 15 pregnancies that yield 4 babies per batch. How many babies are expected this season if approximately 25% are lost?
null
270
Each kettle has 15 hawks that get pregnant and each one yields 4 babies per pregnancy so there are 15 * 4= <<15*4=60>>60 babies expected per kettle. If 60 baby hawks are expected per kettle and the ornithologists are tracking 6 kettles total then there are 60 * 6=<<60*6=360>>360 baby hawks expected across all six kettles this breeding season. If there 25% of eggs do not hatch, then we are looking for 25 (percent that do not make it) /100 (total number of babies expected)=<<25/100=.25>>.25 (percentage converted to decimal form for the proportion of expected baby hawks to be lost). The total number of baby hawks expected equals 360 * .25 expected los s= <<360*.25=90>>90 babies not expected to hatch (lost). There are 360 total number of baby hawks expected and there are 90 babies expected to be lost so 360-90= <<360-90=270>>270 remaining baby hawks expected this breeding season #### 270

Take the number of bears Daragh has left after taking her favorite 8 bears out: 20 bears - 8 bears = <<20-8=12>>12 bears. Divide these amongst Daragh's 3 sisters: 12 bears / 3 sisters = <<12/3=4>>4 bears per sister. Add the 4 bears to Eden's current bears: 10 bears + 4 bears = <<10+4=14>>14 bears. #### 14

Based on this information, what is Petunia's phenotype for the wool color trait?
[ "black wool", "white wool" ]
B
Petunia's genotype for the wool color gene is LL. Petunia's genotype of LL has only L allelles. The L allele is for white wool. So, Petunia's phenotype for the wool color trait must be white wool. To check this answer, consider whether Petunia's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for black wool (l) is recessive to the allele for white wool (L). This means L is a dominant allele, and l is a recessive allele. Petunia's genotype of LL has two dominant alleles. An organism with at least one dominant allele for a gene will have the dominant allele's version of the trait. So, Petunia's phenotype for the wool color trait must be white wool.

Andy started out the year weighing 156 pounds. He then grew 3 inches and gained 36 pounds. Andy wasn't happy with his weight and decided to exercise. Over the next 3 months, he lost an eighth of his weight every month. How much less does Andy weigh now than at the beginning of the year?
null

Andy weighed 156 + 36 = <<156+36=192>>192 pounds after growing taller. An eighth of his weight is 1/8 x 192 = <<1/8*192=24>>24 pounds. Over the next 3 months, Andy lost 24 x 3 = <<24*3=72>>72 pounds. He now weighs 192 - 72 = <<192-72=120>>120 pounds. Andy weighs 156 - 120 = <<156-120=36>>36 pounds less than at the beginning of the year. #### 36

Dabbie bought 3 turkeys for thanksgiving, the first turkey is 6 kilograms, the second turkey is 9 kilograms, and the weight of the third turkey is twice the weight of the second turkey. If the cost of a kilogram of turkey is $2, how much does Dabbie spent on all the turkeys?
null

Dabbie paid 6 x $2 = $<<6*2=12>>12 for the first turkey. He paid 9 x $ 2= $<<9*2=18>>18 for the second turkey. And the weight of the third turkey is 9 x 2 = <<9*2=18>>18 kilograms. So, the price of the third turkey is 18 x $2 = $<<18*2=36>>36. Therefore, the total amount he paid for all the turkeys is $12 + $18 + $36 = $<<12+18+36=66>>66. #### 66

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