In what way are insects and humans similar?
Both are single-celled organisms.
Both are multicellular organisms.
Both have cells that capture sunlight to make food.

How would a large increase in the salinity of an estuary most likely affect the ecosystem of the estuary?
All organisms would die.
All organisms would continue to live as they now do.
The number of salt-tolerant organisms would increase, and the number of salt-intolerant organisms would decrease.
The number of salt-intolerant organisms would increase, and the number of salt-tolerant organisms would decrease.
Which best describes a method of obtaining energy that may cause changes in water temperature and harm to fish populations?
burning coal

The table shows the estimated energy production (in quadrillions of BTUs) from fossil fuels over a 20-year period.
Which conclusion is best supported by the data?
Dependency on oil has increased, therefore energy production from oil is increasing.
Dependency on oil has increased, therefore energy production from natural gas is decreasing.
Dependency on coal has increased, therefore energy production from coal is increasing.
Dependency on coal has increased, therefore energy production from natural gas is decreasing.
Which is most likely a major concern associated with burning fossil fuels?
Burning fossil fuels can pollute the oceans.
Burning fossil fuels can remove harmful chemicals from precipitation.
Burning fossil fuels can remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Burning fossil fuels can produce smog, which can cause respiratory illnesses.
Which action shows concern for the environment with regards to the resources of the oceans?
developing technology which will allow for an increase in fish harvesting.
allowing factories to release untreated wastewater into the oceans
filling in oceanfront wetlands in order to extend beachfront properties
setting limits on fish harvesting in the oceans
Which would indicate the water in a lake is not safe for drinking?
many varieties of fish in the lake
high dissolved-oxygen levels in the lake
cold water temperature of the lake
high turbidity levels in the lake
Which best explains why all of the Earth’s freshwater is not available for human use?
Most of Earth’s freshwater is only in lakes.
Most of Earth’s freshwater is underground.
Most of Earth’s freshwater is still in the water cycle.
Most of Earth’s freshwater is frozen water
If a lake has excess levels of phosphates and nitrates in its water, what will most likely result?
The temperature of the lake water will decrease.
The turbidity levels of the lake will decrease.
The dissolved-oxygen levels in the lake will increase.

What effect does the water cycle have on the total amount of water on Earth?
The total amount of water on Earth is constantly increasing.
The total amount of water on Earth is constantly decreasing.
The total amount of water on Earth remains relatively constant.
The total amount of water on Earth changes due to periods of global warming and cooling.
Which characteristic of water quality provides the most information regarding the health of a water system?
