Answer the following question given this paragraph: Topographic maps that show water depths are called bathymetric maps . An example of one is pictured below ( Figure below ). Bathymetric maps are made of any water body, including lakes and oceans. On these maps, the contour lines represent depth below the surface. Therefore, high numbers are deeper depths and low numbers are shallow depths. Q: What are topographic maps that show water depths called? Choices: - solenoid maps - morainic maps - Water Table maps - bathymetric maps A:
bathymetric maps
Answer the following question given this paragraph: A substance is stored in a reservoir. The amount of time it stays in that reservoir is its residence time. Q: What do we call the amount of time a substance is stored in a reservoir? Choices: - storage time - latency - presence time - residence time A:
residence time
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: When you look at the Moon from Earth, you notice dark and light areas. The maria are dark, solid, flat areas of lava. Maria covers around 16% of the Moon's surface, mostly on the near side. The maria formed about 3.0 to 3.5 billion years ago, when the Moon was continually bombarded by meteorites ( Figure below ). Large meteorites broke through the Moon's newly formed surface. This caused magma to flow out and fill the craters. Scientists estimate volcanic activity on the Moon ended about 1.2 billion years ago. Q: Covering about 16 percent of the moon's surface, maria are dark, solid, flat areas consisting of what substance? Choices: - debris - ash - dust - lava A:
A: lava
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The theory of plate tectonics explains most of the features of Earth's surface. Plate tectonics helps us to understand where and why mountains form. Using the theory, we know where new ocean floor will be created and where it will be destroyed. We know why earthquakes and volcanic eruptions happen where they do. We even can search for mineral resources using information about past plate motions. Plate tectonics is the key that unlocks many of the mysteries of our amazing planet. Q: What theory explains most of the features of earth's surface? Choices: - Big Bang theory - flat earth theory - string theory - plate tectonics A:
Answer: plate tectonics

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The presence of solute particles has the opposite effect on the freezing point of a solution. When a solution freezes, only the solvent particles come together to form a solid phase, and the presence of solute particles interferes with that process. Therefore, for the liquid solvent to freeze, more energy must be removed from the solution, which lowers the temperature. Thus, solutions have lower freezing points than pure solvents do. This phenomenon is called freezing point depression. For every mole of particles in a liter of water, the freezing point decreases by about 1.9C. Both boiling point elevation and freezing point depression have practical uses. For example, solutions of water and ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) are used as coolants in automobile engines because the boiling point of such a solution is greater than 100C, the normal boiling point of water. In winter, salts like NaCl and CaCl2 are sprinkled on the ground to melt ice or keep ice from forming on roads and sidewalks. This is because the solution made by dissolving sodium chloride or calcium chloride in water has a lower freezing point than pure water, so the formation of ice is inhibited. Q: When a solution freezes, only what particles come together to form a solid phase, while the presence of solute particles interferes with that process? Choices: - pigment - hydrogen - diluent - solvent A:
**Answer**
solvent

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Sugars are simple carbohydrates. Molecules of sugar have just a few carbon atoms. The simplest sugar is glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6 ). Glucose is the sugar that the cells of living things use for energy. Plants and some other organisms make glucose in the process of photosynthesis. Living things that cannot make glucose obtain it by consuming plants or these other organisms. Q: What is the sugar that the cells of living things use for energy? Choices: - insulin - sucrose - chlorophyll - glucose A:
**Answer**
glucose
