Answer the following question given this paragraph: The Linnaean system of classification consists of a hierarchy of groupings, called taxa (singular, taxon). Taxa range from the kingdom to the species (see Figure below ). The kingdom is the largest and most inclusive grouping. It consists of organisms that share just a few basic similarities. Examples are the plant and animal kingdoms. The species is the smallest and most exclusive grouping. It consists of organisms that are similar enough to produce fertile offspring together. Closely related species are grouped together in a genus. Q: What do we call the system of classification consisting of a hierarchy of groupings called taxa? Choices: - lamarckian system - linchpin system - crocodilian system - linnaean system A:
linnaean system
Answer the following question given this paragraph: The wind belts have names. The Trade Winds are nearest the equator. The next belt is the westerlies. Finally are the polar easterlies. The names are the same in both hemispheres. Q: The trade winds are nearest what? Choices: - boundary plates - poles - inland - equator A:
equator
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Evaporation is a technique used to separate out homogeneous mixtures in which one or more solids are dissolved in a liquid. Typically, the mixture is heated until all of the liquid has vaporized, leaving behind the dissolved solids ( Figure below ). The vapor can also be captured and recondensed into a liquid if desired. Q: What is the term for a technique used to separate out homogeneous mixtures in which one or more solids are dissolved in a liquid? Choices: - transpiration - absorption - distillation - evaporation A:
A: evaporation
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: ART CONNECTION QUESTIONS 1. Figure 14.10 In eukaryotic cells, DNA and RNA synthesis occur in a separate compartment from protein synthesis. In prokaryotic cells, both processes occur together. What advantages might there be to separating the processes? What advantages might there be to having them occur together? 2. Figure 14.14 You isolate a cell strain in which the joining together of Okazaki fragments is impaired and. Q: Unlike eukaryotic cells, dna and rna synthesis in prokaryotic cells occurs together with synthesis of what? Choices: - membrane - fruit - mutation - protein A:
Answer: protein

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Like other female vertebrates, all female mammals have ovaries. These are the organs that produce eggs (see Figure below ). Therian mammals also have two additional female reproductive structures that are not found in other vertebrates. They are the uterus and vagina. Q: The organs of female mammals that that produce eggs are called what? Choices: - testes - Uterus - fallopian tubes - ovaries A:
**Answer**
ovaries

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Some predator species are known as keystone species. A keystone species is one that plays an especially important role in its community. Major changes in the numbers of a keystone species affect the populations of many other species in the community. For example, some sea star species are keystone species in coral reef communities. The sea stars prey on mussels and sea urchins, which have no other natural predators. If sea stars were removed from a coral reef community, mussel and sea urchin populations would have explosive growth. This, in turn, would drive out most other species. In the end, the coral reef community would be destroyed. Q: What is a species that plays an especially important role in it's community called? Choices: - complement - Invasive - Leader - keystone A:
**Answer**
keystone
