Final Exam 2025

Front

ADAPTATIONS: What type of reproduction requires 2 parent cells combining to create a new cell (offspring)?

Back

Sexual reproduction involves the combination of genetic material from two parent cells to create offspring.

Front

Ecosystems: In the energy pyramid, which organisms have the most energy available?

Back

Producers are at the base of the energy pyramid and have the most energy available.

Front

Weather: Where does the initial source of energy come from that creates winds?

Back

The sun is the initial source of energy that creates winds through convection currents.

Front

Physics: What is the velocity of an object that travels 50 miles south in 4 hours?

Back

12.5 mi/hr south is the velocity of the object.

Front

Planet Earth: What kind of plate boundary is shown here?

Back

A convergent plate boundary is where two tectonic plates move towards each other.

Front

ADAPTATIONS: Define asexual reproduction.

Back

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that does not involve the fusion of gametes and results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.

Front

Ecosystems: What is the role of herbivores in an ecosystem?

Back

Herbivores are primary consumers that eat producers (plants) and transfer energy up the food chain.

Front

Weather: What are convection currents?

Back

Convection currents are the movement of air or water caused by differences in temperature and density, leading to wind and weather patterns.

Front

Physics: How is speed calculated?

Back

Speed is calculated by dividing the distance traveled by the time taken.

Front

Planet Earth: What is a divergent plate boundary?

Back

A divergent plate boundary is where two tectonic plates move away from each other, often creating new crust.
