Alberta Clippers are fast-moving winter low-pressure systems. These systems start over the Canadian province of Alberta. The polar jet stream carries them across the United States. Alberta Clippers often bring very cold air and snow. Which of the following shapes the jet stream carrying these systems?
The temperature of Earth's surface
The location of other pressure systems
The path of the subtropical jet stream
The direction of Earth's tilt from the sun
How could La Nina affect weather during the summer in North Carolina?
It will not affect it.
It could decrease wind.
It could increase rainfall.
It could decrease rainfall.
Which lists some effects of El Nino?
warmer temperatures and more rain
warmer temperatures and less rain
cooler temperatures and less rain
cooler temperatures and more rain
Which type of weather occurs when clouds form near the ground?
foggy
rainy
sunny
windy
Which will most likely be the effect on cloud cover when there is a stationary front in an area?
Low, thick clouds will remain in the area while the front remains stationary.
Light, wispy clouds will remain in the area while the front remains stationary.
Light, variable winds will partly clear the skies until the front begins to move.
High winds will blow clouds away, and skies will be clear and sunny until the front begins to move.

How would the woodpecker population in a forest area most likely be affected if a housing development is built in that area?
They would produce more offspring.
They would change the color of their feathers.
They would experience a decreaes in available food.
They would experience a decrease in competition.
Which is an example of heat being transferred by conduction?
A furnace heating the air in a school.
An ice cube melting in a person's hand.
A pot of water on a stove boiling.
The sun heating water in a swimming pool
A cold metal spoon is placed in a bowl of hot soup. Which BEST describes how the spoon is affected?
The heat from the soup does not affect the temperature of the spoon.
The heat from the soup is conducted through the spoon, making the spoon warmer.
The cold air in the room radiates into the soup, cooling it, and keeping the spoon cool.
The cold from the spoon is conducted into the soup, causing the soup to cool to the same temperature.
Which material would be the best choice for a cooking tool to be used when grilling food over a fire?
plastic
metal
paper
wood
Which is an example of conduction?
Steam is rising from a cup of hot coffee.
A hot biscuit is warming the plate it is on.
The sun is shining through a window and warming a table.
Macaroni is cooking in a pot of water.
Yuko designed an experiment to test the effect of heating and cooling on air. She blew up two balloons to similar sizes and measured their circumferences. She placed one balloon in a freezer for one hour and left the second balloon on the table. After one hour she measured their circumferences again. She then left both balloons on the table for one more hour. The graph shows the change in the sizes of the balloons during the experiment.
Which statement BEST explains the differences seen between the two balloons during the experiment
Air contracts when cooled but is not affected by warming.
Cooling causes air to contract and heating causes air to expand.
Balloons put more pressure on cold air than room temperature air.
Freezing causes balloons to contract and thawing causes them to expand.
Although the heat source is at the bottom of the beaker, all of the water is the same temperature.
What keeps the water at the top of the beaker the same temperature as that of the bottom?
Heat from the burner radiates through the liquid and causes even heating.
Evaporation heats the water at the top and the flame heats the water at the bottom.
The walls of the beaker reflect heat toward the center, so the water heats evenly.
Heated water molecules and steam rise in the beaker, carrying heat by convection.

Tom does not want to be just like his dad.
Tom inherited his eyelashes from his mother.
Tom and his dad both learned to write with their right hand.
Tom and his dad are not different because they are related
Which determines whether an object hit by an unbalanced force will change direction or continue moving in the same direction?
the direction in which the object was already moving
the direction in which the unbalanced force is traveling
the amount of gravity present when the unbalanced force hit the object
