45% Answer Correctly

secondary or tertiary consumers

primary or secondary consumers

primary or tertiary consumers

secondary consumers or scavengers


Solution

Secondary or tertiary consumers may be omnivores.


3

When light travels between two substances it bends. This is called:

75% Answer Correctly

convection

refraction

conduction

reflection


Solution

Because different materials have different refractive indices, light changes speed when passing from one material to another. This causes the light to bend (refraction) at an angle that depends on the change in refractive index between the materials. The greater the difference, the higher the angle of refraction.


4

Which of the following represents the largest value?

61% Answer Correctly

1 mL

1 cL

1 ML

1 kL


Solution

Mega (M) is 106, kilo (k) is 103, centi (c) is 10-2, milli (m) is 10-3 so 1 ML represents the largest value.


5

Molecules and atoms that are inputs to a chemical reaction are known as which of the following?

63% Answer Correctly

reactants

components

products

fuel


Solution

During a chemical reaction molecules and atoms (reactants) are rearranged into new combinations that result in new kinds of atoms or molecules (products).
