Answer the following question given this paragraph: The device in the circuit in Figure above is an ammeter. It measures the current that flows through the wire. The faster the magnet or coil moves, the greater the amount of current that is produced. If more turns were added to the coil, this would increase the strength of the magnetic field as well. If the magnet were moved back and forth repeatedly, the current would keep changing direction. In other words, alternating current would be produced. This is illustrated in Figure below . Q: What device measures current that flows through wire? Choices: - protractor - resistor attachment - Geiger counter - ammeter A:
**Answer**
ammeter

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The stability of an ecosystem depends on the actions of the decomposers. Examples of decomposers include mushrooms on a decaying log. Bacteria in the soil are also decomposers. Imagine what would happen if there were no decomposers. Wastes and the remains of dead organisms would pile up and the nutrients within the waste and dead organisms would not be released back into the ecosystem. Producers would not have enough nutrients. The carbon and nitrogen necessary to build organic compounds, and then cells, allowing an organism to grow, would be insufficient. Other nutrients necessary for an organism to function properly would also not be sufficient. Essentially, many organisms could not exist. Q: The stability of an ecosystem depends on the actions of what, exemplified by mushrooms on a decaying log and bacteria in soil? Choices: - whitefly - fluxes - aphids - decomposers A:
**Answer**
decomposers

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Binary fission occurs when a parent cell simply splits into two daughter cells. This method is described in detail in the lesson "Cell Division. " Bacteria reproduce this way. You can see a bacterial cell reproducing by binary fission in Figure below . Q: How does bacteria reproduce? Choices: - sexual reproduction - budding - pollination - binary fission A:
**Answer**
binary fission
