questions with answers |\ |\
Capillary attraction - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The movement of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
water into and through small openings. This helps plants to get
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
water from their roots up to their leaves
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
Surface tension - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The force between
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
water molecules at the surface of the drop. Insects use this force
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
to "stand on" the water.
|\ |\ |\ |\
Polarity - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔One side of a water molecule
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
has a slight positive charge and the other side has a slight
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
negative charge. These charges cause water molecules to attract
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
other substances. This is similar to static cling one see in a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
clothes dryer. The polarity of a water molecule gives it the ability
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
to dissolve most earth materials.
|\ |\ |\ |\
Specific Heat - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The measure of how much
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
heat energy is needed to warm one gram of a substance one
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
degree
Which process causes ocean tides? - CORRECT ANSWERS
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
✔✔gravitational pull of the moon and the sun |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
In what ways do the ocean and its currents affect the earth's
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
global climate? - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Currents move cold
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
, water from the poles toward the equator, the ocean helps keep
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
to moderate the climate of earth, and currents move warm water
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
from the tropics toward the poles.

Students were asked to determine the energy in each level of the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
following food chain: phytoplankton --- zooplankton ---- herring
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
---- pelican
|\ |\
Which student is correct? - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Student D
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
phytoplankton: 1000 ---- zooplankton: 100 ----herring: 10 ---- |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
pelican: 1 |\
Which statement is false as it relates to the adaptations animals
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
have which allows them to survive in the deep ocean? - CORRECT
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
ANSWERS ✔✔They can only take the high pressure for a short
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
time. This is why they come to the surface each night
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
By far largest reservoir (recall that a reservoir is part of the earth
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
where water is held in storage) of the hydrosphere is... -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Oceans |\ |\
How has the level of carbon dioxide in earth atmosphere changed
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
during the last fifty years? - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔It has
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
increased.
Which term below is not correctly matched with its definition? -
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔reverse osmosis: The movement of salt |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
into and out of living cells in the ocean
