Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Some mammals are carnivores. Carnivores are heterotrophs that eat only or mainly animal foods. Depending on their species, carnivorous mammals may eat other mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, mollusks, worms, and/or insects. Mammals that are carnivores include anteaters, whales, hyenas, wolves, and seals. The bat in Figure below is also a carnivorous mammal. It eats insects. Carnivores that eat mainly insects are classified as insectivores. Q: What is the name for a heterotroph that eats only or mainly animal foods? Choices: - macrophage - omnivore - herbivore - carnivore A:
A: carnivore

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: Rain, snow, sleet, and hail are all examples of what? Choices: - temperature - erosion - liquids - precipitation A:
A: precipitation

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Many people think that any idea that is completely accepted in science is a law. But that is not true. In science, a law is something that always applies under the same conditions. A law explains a fairly simple phenomenon. A theory is much more complex: it tells you why something happens. A law only tells you that it happens. For example, if you hold something above the ground and let go, it will fall. This phenomenon is recognized by the law of gravity ( Figure below ). Some people say that evolution is "just a theory. " But for a complex explanation like evolution, theory is the right word. Q: In science, what do you call something that always applies under the same conditions? Choices: - theory - hypothesis - scientific method - scientific law A:
A: scientific law

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Slime Molds A subset of the amoebozoans, the slime molds, has several morphological similarities to fungi that are thought to be the result of convergent evolution. For instance, during times of stress, some slime molds develop into spore-generating fruiting bodies, much like fungi. The slime molds are categorized on the basis of their life cycles into plasmodial or cellular types. Plasmodial slime molds are composed of large, multinucleate cells and move along surfaces like an amorphous blob of slime during their feeding stage (Figure 23.27). Food particles are lifted and engulfed into the slime mold as it glides along. Upon maturation, the plasmodium takes on a net-like appearance with the ability to form fruiting bodies, or sporangia, during times of stress. Haploid spores are produced by meiosis within the sporangia, and spores can be disseminated through the air or water to potentially land in more favorable environments. If this occurs, the spores germinate to form ameboid or flagellate haploid cells that can combine with each other and produce a diploid zygotic slime mold to complete the life cycle. Q: Slime molds have several morphological similarities to fungi, including spore-generation, that are thought to be the result of convergent what? Choices: - generation - phenomenon - emergence - evolution A:
A: evolution
