The image shows a food web in a small ecosystem. A new species moves into the ecosystem. The new species consumes only snakes. Scientists are interested in predicting how the new species will impact the food web. Which of the following is most likely to be a correct prediction based on the information in the food web?

• the toad population will increase

• the insectivorous bird population will decline

• the new species is a prey for the owls

• the new species will form a competitive relationship with the snakes.

Emma is conducting an investigation to compare several physical properties of samples of two different kinds of rocks. When she measured and compared the masses of the two rocks, she found that rock 1 had a greater mass than rock 2. Which of the following is the best prediction of how another property of the rocks will compare?

• The density of rock 1 will be the same as the density of rock 2.

• The weight of rock 1 will be greater than the weight of rock 2.

• The volume of rock 1 will be less than the volume of rock 2.

• The state of rock 1 will be different from the state of rock 2.

What would be the best use of this model by a scientist?

• To model one-directional forces, as the rocket is affected only by one force.

• To model the idea of zero gravity, as the rocket is not affected by gravity

• To model the transition between the kinetic and potential energy of the rocket

• To model the effects of wind resistance on the rocket’s descent to the ground
