Isaac Newton was born in the 1600s and studied how objects move. He discovered three fundamental laws about forces and motion. According to Newton's third law, for every force, there is an equal and opposite force. Consider the following force: Edgar is pushing on his friend's wheelchair. According to Newton's third law, what other force must be happening?

The wheelchair is pushing on Edgar.

The wheelchair is pulling on Edgar.

Before sunrise on November 14, 1963, the crew of the fishing boat Isleifur II had just finished putting their fishing lines in the ocean off the southern coast of Iceland. As the crew waited to have breakfast, a strong smell of sulfur drifted over the boat. At first, crew members thought that the cook had burned the eggs or that something was wrong with the boat's engine. But when the sun started to rise, the crew saw black smoke billowing from the water a few kilometers away. The captain of the Isleifur II first thought the smoke was coming from a boat that was on fire, so he sailed closer to try to help. But as the Isleifur II approached the column of smoke, the captain and crew saw glowing pieces of molten rock shooting up out of the water. The captain realized this was not a burning boat. It was a volcano erupting under the water! According to the text, what evidence of a volcanic eruption did the captain observe?

He smelled sulfur and saw pieces of molten rock shooting out of the water.

He saw a nearby boat that was on fire.

He heard a report on the radio warning about a volcanic eruption.

When the island of Surtsey first formed, it was sterile , which means that it did not have any living organisms on it. Hot rocks and ash covered the island's surface, and toxic gas and lava flowed out of the volcano. After the volcano stopped erupting, organisms started to live and grow on Surtsey. The number and type of organisms that lived on the island changed over time in a process called succession. Succession happens when the number or type of organisms living in an environment changes. Surtsey experienced a type of succession called primary succession. Primary succession happens when the environment starts out as sterile. From the time that Surtsey formed, the government of Iceland has wanted to make sure that humans do not interfere with the process of primary succession. So, the only human visitors allowed on Surtsey are scientists who study primary succession. What makes Surtsey a good place to study primary succession? Select all that apply.

The island was sterile when it first formed.

The island has been protected from most human visitors.

The island contains organisms that were able to grow while the volcano was erupting.

No organisms are able to survive on the island.
