Question: Q: For a given amount of solute, do smaller particles have a greater or lesser surface area? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: A third factor that affects the rate of dissolving is the size of solute particles. For a given amount of solute, smaller particles have greater surface area. With greater surface area, there can be more contact between particles of solute and solvent. For example, if you put granulated sugar in a glass of iced tea, it will dissolve more quickly than the same amount of sugar in a cube (see Figure below ). That's because all those tiny particles of granulated sugar have greater total surface area than a single sugar cube. Choices: - lesser - equal - neither - greater A:
Answer: greater

Question: Q: What is the highest taxon in the classification of living things? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Prokaryotes are currently placed in two domains. A domain is the highest taxon in the classification of living things. It's even higher than the kingdom. Choices: - a phylum - a class - a family - a domain A:
Answer: a domain

Question: Q: What is the major source of water vapor in the atmosphere? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Oceans are the major source of water vapor in the atmosphere. Sunlight heats water near the sea surface ( Figure below ). As the water warms, some of it evaporates. The water vapor rises into the air, where it may form clouds and precipitation. Precipitation provides the freshwater needed by plants and other living things. Choices: - drift - sea - streams - ocean A:
Answer:
ocean
