Answer the following question given this paragraph: All organisms must adapt to their environment in order to survive. This is true whether they live in water or on land. Most environments are not as extreme as the deep ocean where tube worms live. But they all have conditions that require adaptations. In this chapter, you will read about a wide variety of environments and the organisms that live in them. Q: All organisms must adapt to what in order to survive? Choices: - natural - weather - conditions - environment A:
environment

Answer the following question given this paragraph: levels. If a solid has a filled valence band with a relatively low-lying empty band above it (a conduction band), then electrons can be excited by thermal energy from the filled band into the vacant band where they can then migrate through the crystal, resulting in electrical conductivity. Electrical insulators are poor conductors because their valence bands are full. Semiconductors have electrical conductivities intermediate between those of insulators and metals. The electrical conductivity of semiconductors increases rapidly with increasing temperature, whereas the electrical conductivity of metals decreases slowly with increasing temperature. The properties of semiconductors can be modified by doping, or introducing impurities. Adding an element with more valence electrons than the atoms of the host populates the conduction band, resulting in an n-type semiconductor with increased electrical conductivity. Adding an element with fewer valence electrons than the atoms of the host generates holes in the valence band, resulting in a p-type semiconductor that also exhibits increased electrical conductivity. Q: What happens to the electrical conductivity of metals when placed in a pot of boiling water? Choices: - stays the same - increases slowly - increases quickly - decreases slowly A:
decreases slowly

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Compounds that form from two or more nonmetallic elements, such as carbon and hydrogen, are called covalent compounds . In a covalent compound, atoms of the different elements are held together in molecules by covalent bonds. These are chemical bonds in which atoms share valence electrons. The force of attraction between the shared electrons and the positive nuclei of both atoms holds the atoms together in the molecule. A molecule is the smallest particle of a covalent compound that still has the properties of the compound. Q: Compounds that form from two or more nonmetallic elements are called what? Choices: - ionic bonds - valent bonds - hydrogen bonds - covalent bonds A:
covalent bonds

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Relative humidity is how the air feels at its temperature and humidity. Q: What is the term for how the air feels at its temperature and humidity Choices: - climate sensory index - atmospheric humidity - initial humidity - relative humidity A:
relative humidity
