Answer the following question given this paragraph: Feathers help birds fly and also provide insulation and serve other purposes. Birds actually have two basic types of feathers: flight feathers and down feathers. Both are shown in Figure below . Flight feathers are long, stiff and waterproof. They provide lift and air resistance without adding weight. Down feathers are short and fluffy. They trap air next to a bird's skin for insulation. Q: What two basic types of feather does a bird have? Choices: - carrying and down - up and down - flight and landing - flight and down A:
flight and down
Answer the following question given this paragraph: A change in an object's motionsuch as Xander speeding up on his scooteris called acceleration . Acceleration occurs whenever an object is acted upon by an unbalanced force. The greater the net force acting on the object, the greater its acceleration will be, but the mass of the object also affects its acceleration. The smaller its mass is, the greater its acceleration for a given amount of force. Newton's second law of motion summarizes these relationships. According to this law, the acceleration of an object equals the net force acting on it divided by its mass. This can be represented by the equation:. Q: What is the term for a change in an object's motion, which occurs whenever an object is acted upon by an unbalanced force? Choices: - rotation - compression - inclination - acceleration A:
acceleration
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: Many plants generate root pressure during which phase? Choices: - flowering season - developing season - end of life cycle - growing season A:
A: growing season
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Solubility is normally expressed in g/L of saturated solution. However, solubility can also be expressed as the moles per liter. Molar solubility is the number of moles of solute in one liter of saturated solution. In other words, the molar solubility of a given compound represents the highest molarity solution that is possible for that compound. The molar mass of a compound is the conversion factor between solubility and molar solubility. Given that the solubility of Zn(OH) 2 is 4.2 10 -4 g/L, the molar solubility can be calculated as shown below:. Q: The conversion factor between solubility and molar solubility of a compound is known as what? Choices: - mass effect - stochastic mass - molar value - molar mass A:
Answer: molar mass

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Plant Organ Systems In plants, just as in animals, similar cells working together form a tissue. When different types of tissues work together to perform a unique function, they form an organ; organs working together form organ systems. Vascular plants have two distinct organ systems: a shoot system, and a root system. The shoot system consists of two portions: the vegetative (nonreproductive) parts of the plant, such as the leaves and the stems, and the reproductive parts of the plant, which include flowers and fruits. The shoot system generally grows above ground, where it absorbs the light needed for photosynthesis. The root system, which supports the plants and absorbs water and minerals, is usually underground. Figure 30.2 shows the organ systems of a typical plant. Q: When different types of tissues work together to perform a unique function, what do they form? Choices: - organs - Brian - produce - organ A:
**Answer**
organ

Answer the following question given this paragraph: As has been noted in numerous Things Great and Small vignettes, this is not the first time the large has been explained by the small and vice versa. Newton realized that the nature of gravity on Earth that pulls an apple to the ground could explain the motion of the moon and planets so much farther away. Minute atoms and molecules explain the chemistry of substances on a much larger scale. Decays of tiny nuclei explain the hot interior of the Earth. Fusion of nuclei likewise explains the energy of stars. Today, the patterns in particle physics seem to be explaining the evolution and character of the universe. And the nature of the universe has implications for unexplored regions of particle physics. Cosmology is the study of the character and evolution of the universe. What are the major characteristics of the universe as we know them today? First, there are approximately 10 11 galaxies in the observable part of the universe. An average galaxy contains more than 10 11 stars, with our Milky Way galaxy being larger than average, both in its number of stars and its dimensions. Ours is a spiral-shaped galaxy with a diameter of about 100,000 light years and a thickness of about 2000 light years in the arms with a central bulge about 10,000 light years across. The Sun lies about 30,000 light years from the center near the galactic plane. There are significant clouds of gas, and there is a halo of less-dense regions of stars surrounding the main body. (See Figure 34.3. ) Evidence strongly suggests the existence of a large amount of additional matter in galaxies that does not produce lightthe mysterious dark matter we shall later discuss. Q: Newton realized that the nature of gravity on earth that pulls an apple to the ground could explain the motion of these? Choices: - seasons - atoms and quarks - molecules - moon and planets A:
(Answer)
moon and planets
