8. S6E4.d Dew is formed by

the condensation of water vapor.

frost melting just before sunrise.

groundwater being pulled to Earth's surface.

transpiration performed by plants.

9. S6E3.a The salts in the sea come from

weathering and erosion of rocks.

organisms that live in the sea.

15. S6E3.d Which of these BEST describe the cause of waves in the ocean?

wind blowing across the surface of the ocean

ridges and trenches on the bottom of the ocean

17. S6E3.c Ridges, tectonic plate boundaries, and hydrothermal vents are physical features found our planet. Where are these features found MOST OFTEN?

at the bottom of Earth's oceans

on top of mountains and continents

18. S6E3.d Why are tides continually rising and lowering every day?

because the position of the Moon is constantly changing

because deep ocean currents are constantly changing

because rates of evaporation and precipitation are constantly changing

because the direction of the wind ove r the ocean is constantly changing

19. S6E3.a Why does the ocean cover different amounts of the beach at different times of the day?

because the Moon's gravity pulls the ocean, causing it to rise and fall

because Earth wobbles as it rotates, causing the ocean to rise and fall

because ocean currents change, adding sand to and removing sand from the beach

because the sand is able to absorb more water as the temperature increases, lowering the ocean level

20. S6E4.d Which of these BEST explains the reason that thunderstorms are likely to form on a hot day?

warm, humid air rises quickly and then cools

As air slowly rises it loses humidity and causes rain

The air is usually calm and allows the clouds to form

The air rises quickly and forms low-level cloud layers

21. S6E4.e Yvette was looking at a map that showed where hurricanes had formed. She noticed that more hurricanes formed over tropical oceans than over colder ocean areas. Which of these BEST explains why more hurricanes form over tropical oceans than cold oceans?

Air has more moisture over tropical oceans than over cold oceans.

Air has less moisture over tropical oceans than over cold oceans.

Water has more waves in tropical oceans than in colder oceans.

Water has fewer currents in tropical oceans than in colder oceans.

22. S6E4.d Meteorologists often look at differences in air pressure when they are trying to predict the weather. Why do these differences occur?

The Sun heats different places at different rates.

The Moon's gravity has a different strength at different places.

Earth's rotation makes different places move at different speeds.

Volcanoes add different amounts of heat and gas to the air in different places.

23. S6E4.c The picture below shows a large rock and a container of water. The rock and the water have the same mass and temperature. What will MOST LIKELY happen when the rock and the water receive the same amount of heat energy?

The rock will transfer heat to the water.

The water will transfer heat to the rock.

The temperature of the rock will rise faster.

The temperature of the water will rise faster.

24. S6E4.e Seattle, Washington is a highly populated city surrounded by the Pacific coast in the Northwest United States. Bismarck, North Dakota is a highly populated city in the North Central United States. They are both located at about the same latitude. Why does Seattle experience much less severe winters than Bismarck?

The Pacific Ocean releases heat and keeps Seattle warmer.

Cold air masses settle away from bodies of water.

It is warmer in the central part of the United States.

Seattle is slightly closer to the sun during the winter months.

25. S6E4.b While visiting the beach during the summer vacation, a sea breeze keep you cool and comfortable during the hottest part of the day. Which BEST explains why this happens?

Warm air rising over land allows cooler air from the ocean to blow inland.

Cool air rising over land allows warm air from the ocean to blow inland.

There are similarities in temperature between the land and the water.

26. S6E4.e Which statement about Earth's heating pattern is true?

Land cools more quickly than large bodies of water.

The rate of cooling depends on the season.

Large bodies of water cool more quickly than land.

Land and large bodies of water cool at the same rate.

29. S6E3.c What is the mid-ocean ridge?

They are areas of underwater mountain chains located near many active volcanoes.

They are areas where tectonic plates meet.

They are narrow valleys that run along the bottom of the oceans.

They are areas underwater where thick layers of sediment have accumulated.

41. S6E3.a Oceans contain many dissolved elements like calcium, sodium, and chlorine and these elements plus others combine to form the salts in the ocean. Which of the following sources is a major source of calcium and sodium in oceans?

weathering and erosion of rocks

pollutants from industrial wastes

acid rain caused by air pollution

43. S6E4.d What is MOST LIKELY to cause a hurricane?

warm evaporating water from the ocean

cold evaporating water from the ocean
