B. Scientists often respond to the needs in our society.
C. Scientific advances are always made in the field of medicine.
D. Scientists may make discoveries that have no impact on society.
SC.6. N.1.1
Eric wants to make sure he understands the parts of a good scientific investigation. He knows that scientific investigations include many different steps. During a scientific investigation, which step occurs after a scientist collects data?
A. Draw conclusions
B. Form the hypothesis
C. Plan the experiment
D. Follow the procedure
SC.8. N.1.1
A group of student researchers want to find out how the angle of a ramp affects the speed of a skateboard rolling down the ramp. There many different ways the investigation can be conducted. Which investigation should they perform?
A. Observe different skateboarders riding down hills of different heights.
B. Record the time it takes one skateboarder to ride down hills of different heights.
C. Perform an experiment in which the various angles of the ramp are controlled, and the speed of a rolling skateboard is measured.
D. Observe videos of various objects rolling down hills and estimate the angle of the hill and the speed of the object.
SC.8. E.5.10
Some places in the universe are too distant for humans to observe directly. The Hubble Space Telescope orbits the Earth and collects data and images from distant parts of the universe. Which of these technologies would describe the Hubble Space Telescope?
A. Space station
B. Rocket
C. Space probe
D. Artificial satellite
SC.6. E.7.4
Scientists have been studying the rate of melting glaciers around the world for over a century. They are concerned that some of the world’s largest glaciers are melting at ever increasing rates. Which of the following statements best describes how melting polar ice could most likely affect the climate on Earth?
A. Worldwide temperature may fall due to the cooling of the oceans by the melting ice.
B. Worldwide temperatures would fall as land cools off at a faster rate than the oceans.
C. Worldwide temperatures may rise because the glaciers are no longer reflecting solar radiation.
D. Worldwide temperatures would be higher in the summer with no ice to cool the atmosphere, but no change in winter temperatures.
SC.6. E.7.5
The following diagram represents the different parts of the water cycle.
What process is occurring at letter C in the diagram and which methods of heat transfer are required?
A. Evaporation, due to convection and radiation.
B. Evaporation, due to radiation and conduction.
C Condensation, due to convection and radiation.
D. Condensation, due to radiation and conduction.
SC.6. E.6.2
A delta is defined as a triangular mass of sediment, silt, and sand, deposited at the mouth of a river. Deltas form when a river flows into a body of standing water, such as a sea or lake, and deposits large quantities of sediment. They are usually crossed by numerous streams and channels and have exposed as well as submerged areas. Which process was primarily responsible for the formation of a delta?
A. Glacial erosion
B. Cementation of sediment
C. Deposition of sediment
D. Weather of rocks
SC.7. E.6.2
Analyze the diagram of the transformation of sediment to magma.
Which geological processes must occur to transform sediment into magma at step of the process?
A. Compacting and cementing, cooling, melting.
B. Compacting and cementing, melting, weathering, and erosion.
C. Weathering and erosion, heat, and pressure, melting.
D. Compacting and cementing, heat and pressure, melting.
SC.8. P.9.2
Chemical changes are accompanied by signs that show that a chemical reaction has occurred. By making careful observations about the chemical reaction, a student can see one or more of these signs. The signs will provide evidence that the event is not a physical change. Which of the following is NOT likely to be evidence of a chemical change?
A. A form of matter changes state from solid to liquid.
B. A substance forms that releases heat and light.
C. Carbon dioxide, water, and ash are produced.
D. There are signs of rusting on a metal object.
SC.8. P.9.2
In a physical or chemical reaction, the total amount of the products must be equal to the total amount of the starting materials. Which of the following laws is defined by this statement?
A. The Law of Universal Gravitation
B. The Law of Chemical Properties
C. The Law of Conservation of Energy
D. The Law of Conservation of Mass
SC.8. P.8.5
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a disinfectant that can be bought at most drugstores. It comes in a brown bottle to protect it from being broken down by light. Otherwise, hydrogen peroxide would gradually break down into H2O and O2. How are these materials classified?
A. H2O2 is a compound, and H2O and O2 are elements.
B. H2O2 and H2O are compounds, and O2 is an element.
C. All three materials are elements and are in the Periodic Table.
D. All three materials are compounds made of elements are found in the Periodic Table.
SC.8. P.8.5
There is quite a bit of information that chemists can determine about individual elements and groups of elements, including patterns that are called periodic trends because they relate element position to a specific characteristic. Which piece of information can NOT be found about an element using the table?
A. name
B. symbol
C. atomic number
D. atomic model
SC.6. L.14.1
The diagram shows some parts of an earthworm.
Which term best describes the labeled parts?
A. Tissues
B. Organs
C. Systems
D. Organisms
SC.6. L.14.1
Students were asked to create an analogy that shows the relationship between cells, organs, an organism, organ systems, and tissues. One group created the analogy shown here.
Which of the following best completes the analogy?
A. A Glossary
B. A Table of Contents
C. A Book
