TCAP Review Science

The students decide to model how the motion of plates occurs. Which statement best describes the ability of the model to predict plate movement?

• the motion of the plates cannot be modeled on the scale that is much smaller that the plates themselves

• the motion of the plates cannot be modeled by the simplified the factors that contribute to plate movement

• the motion of the plates can be modeled by including only the main factors that contribute to plate movement.

• the motion of the plates can be modeled by including only the every factor that contribute to plate movement.

Which statement best describes the continued existence of the giraffe and the okapi

• the two species will likely interbreed with each other, resulting in young with characteristics from both species

• the two species will likely interbreed and develop a new species with characteristics of their common ancestor

• the tow species are no longer able to interbreed and both will continue to exist and reproduce in their separate environments

• the two species will be in competition for natural resources with each other in a single environment, leading to the extinction of one of the species
