There was an increase in food availability
There was a decrease in food availability
Horses with larger body masses were less likely to survive and reproduce
Horses with larger body masses were more likely to survive and reproduce
Large body mass occurred in individuals as they became adults
A student is comparing characteristics of three toy cars. Select the words or phrases from each set of options to complete the following sentence based on the data provided in the table. As the (speed / mass) increases, the kinetic energy of the car (increases / decreases / stays the same).
speed, increases
speed, stays the same
mass, increases
mass, decreases
Identify two organelles that are present in plant cells that are absent from animal cells.
Explain why one of the organelles identified in the previous question is not necessary for animal cells to survive.
Identify two spheres that have the same potential energy. Explain how this can be determined from the diagram.
Identify two spheres that have unequal potential energy. Identify the sphere which has more potential energy.
Oil and gas are formed from the remains of microscopic ocean organisms. A student claims that the oil and gas deposits in Missouri are about 100 million years old. Based on the map, decide whether you agree or disagree with the student's claim and then explain your decision.
Describe the motion of the stone sphere based on the forces shown in the diagram.
The same sphere is placed on a rough surface, and the same horizontal forces are acting on the sphere. Describe how the motion of the sphere will most likely change when the stone sphere is placed on the rougher surface.
A scientist finds a site that contains fossils of Orohippus, Mesohippus, and Miohippus.
Identify the species of horse fossils that would be found in the uppermost layer of the rock. Use data from the chart to explain your answer.
A scientist finds a site that contains fossils of Orohippus, Mesohippus, and Miohippus.
Identify the species of horse fossils that would be found in the bottommost layer of the rock. Use data from the chart to explain your answer.

Describe the path of the light as it travels from the air to the pane of clear glass.
Explain why the students would not see the light travel through the black iron backing.
Which statement best compares the two waves?
Wave 1 has a higher frequency because it has a longer wavelength than wave 2.
Wave 1 has a higher frequency because it has a higher amplitude than wave 2.
Wave 2 has more energy because it has a higher amplitude than wave 1.
Wave 2 has more energy because it has a higher frequency than wave 1.
