TRUE/FALSE - Write 'T' if the statement is true and 'F' if the statement is false.
The classification system most commonly used by biologists today contains five domains.
M
true
false
PR
Climate change is primarily due to an imbalance in the chemical cycling of the element carbon.
true
false
ES
The control group in an experiment receives all the same treatments as the experimental
group(s), except for the one variable being tested.
SI
true
false
VE
The selective agents for natural selection can be either abiotic or biotic.
true
false
G
CHECK ALL THE APPLY. Choose all options that best completes the statement or
answers the question.
R
Due to human activities, more carbon dioxide is being released into the atmosphere than is being
removed. What happens to this extra carbon dioxide? Select all that apply.
AD
Some of the carbon dioxide stays in the atmosphere which causes surface temperature to rise.
Approximately half of the extraneous carbon dioxide is being expelled into deep space.
Much of the extraneous carbon dioxide is dissolved into the oceans where it is causing
acidification.
ES
Trees and other plants have increased their rates of photosynthesis and are effectively removing
most of the extraneous carbon dioxide.
