Answer the following question given this paragraph: Other dry climates get a little more precipitation. They are called steppes . These regions have short grasses and low bushes (see Figure below ). Steppes occur at higher latitudes than deserts. They are dry because they are in continental interiors or rain shadows. Q: What is the term for dry climate regions at higher altitudes that have short grasses and low bushes? Choices: - deserts - fringes - prairie - steppes A:
steppes

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Weight is a measure of the force of gravity pulling down on an object. It depends on the object's mass, which is how much matter the object contains. It also depends on the downward acceleration of the object due to gravity, which is the same all over Earth. Weight can be represented by the equation:. Q: What is the term for the measure of the force of gravity pulling down on an object? Choices: - mass - density - pressure - weight A:
(Answer)
weight

Answer the following question given this paragraph: A food chain represents a single pathway by which energy and matter flow through an ecosystem. An example is shown in Figure below . Food chains are generally simpler than what really happens in nature. Most organisms consumeand are consumed bymore than one species. Q: A single, often oversimplified, path through which energy and matter flow through an ecosystem is also known as what? Choices: - the chain - fuel chain - life cycle - food chain A:
(A).
food chain
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: All plants are adapted to live on land. Or are they? All living plants today have terrestrial ancestors, but some plants now live in the water. They have had to evolve new adaptations for their watery habitat. Q: Where do all plants come from? Choices: - phylogenetic ancestors - distant ancestors - cetacean ancestors - terrestrial ancestors A:

Ans:terrestrial ancestors
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Summary The major types of solids are ionic, molecular, covalent, and metallic. Ionic solids consist of positively and negatively charged ions held together by electrostatic forces; the strength of the bonding is reflected in the lattice energy. Ionic solids tend to have high melting points and are rather hard. Molecular solids are held together by relatively weak forces, such as dipoledipole interactions, hydrogen bonds, and London dispersion forces. As a result, they tend to be rather soft and have low melting points, which depend on their molecular structure. Covalent solids consist of two- or three-dimensional networks of Saylor URL: http://www. saylor. org/books. Q: Ionic, molecular, covalent, and metallic are major types of what state of matter? Choices: - gas - liquid - plasma - solids A:

Ans:
