1

Molecules and atoms that are outputs from a chemical reaction are known as which of the following?

56% Answer Correctly

results

reactants

products

side effects


Solution

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


2

The connective tissue that connects bones to other bones at joints is called:

70% Answer Correctly

tendons

cartilage

ligaments

knuckles


Solution

Tough fibrous cords of connective tissue called tendons connect muscles to the skeleton while another type of connective tissue called ligaments connect bones to other bones at joints (elbow, knee, fingers, spinal column).

72% Answer Correctly

scavengers

primary consumers

secondary consumers

tertiary consumers


Solution

Primary consumers (herbivores) subsist on producers like plants and fungus.  Examples are grasshoppers, cows, and plankton.


4

Water has a refractive index of 1.33. Which of the following is true?

64% Answer Correctly

light is 1.33 times brighter in a vacuum than it is in water

light travels 1.33 times slower in a vacuum than it does in water

light travels 1.33 times faster in a vacuum than it does in water

light is 1.33 times dimmer in a vacuum than it is in water


Solution

The speed of light varies based on the material that the waves are passing through. The refractive index of a material indicates how easily light travels through it compared to how easily light travels through a vacuum. For example, the refractive index of water is 1.33, meaning that light travels 1.33 times faster in a vacuum than it does in water.


5

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

62% Answer Correctly

components

reactants

fuel

products


Solution

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