	solid
	liquid
	gas
	none of these

What part of the food chain serves only as food for other organisms?

72% Answer Correctly

	secondary consumers
	decomposers
	producers
	primary consumers

Solution

Producers (autotrophs) serve as a food source for other organisms. Typical producers are plants that can make their own food through photosynthesis and certain bacteria that are capable of converting inorganic substances into food through chemosynthesis

During continental drift, the drifting plates move across which of the following?

50% Answer Correctly

	sediment
	fault lines
	liquid mantle
	water

Solution

The crust and the rigid lithosphere (upper mantle) is made up of approximately thirty separate plates. These plates more very slowly on the slightly more liquid mantle (asthenosphere) beneath them. This movement has resulted in continental drift which is the gradual movement of land masses across Earth's surface. Continental drift is a very slow process, occurring over hundreds of millions of years.

A human heart consists of how many chambers?

84% Answer Correctly

	2
	8
	4
	1

Solution

The heart is the organ that drives the circulatory system. In humans, it consists of four chambers with two that collect blood called atria and two that pump blood called ventricles. The heart's valves prevent blood pumped out of the ventricles from flowing back into the heart.
