Which of the following best describes how the 2 scientists explain how craters are removed from Europa's surface? Scietist 1 Scientist 2 A. Sublimation Filled in by water B. filled in by water Sublimation C. Worn smooth by wind Sublimation D. Worn smooth by wind Filled in by water
B is the best answer. Scientist 1 says that the craters are smoothed by liquid water that oozes up into the craters from the subsurface and then quickly freezes. Scientist 2 says that when ice sublimates, the craters are eroded and smoothed.

According to the information provided, which of the following descriptions of Europa would be accepted by both scientists? A. Europa has a large diameter than does Jupiter. B. Europa has a surface made of rocky material. C. Europa has a surface temperature of 20 C. D. Europa is completely covered by a layer of ice.
D is the best answer. Both scientists indicate that ice covers large portions of the surface and neither discusses the presence of any other surface material. So, both scientists would likely agree that Europa is completely covered by a layer of ice.

With which of the following statements about the conditions on Europa or the evolution of Europa's surface would both Scientist 1 and Scientist 2 most likely agree? The surface Europa: A. is being shaped by the movement of ice. B. is covered with millions of meteorite craters. C. is the same temperature as the surface of the Artic Ocean on Earth. D. has remained unchanged for millions of years.
A is the best answer. Scientist 1 states that Europa's surface is partially composed of large slabs of ice that rotate. Scientist 2 states that many of the features on Europa's surface resemble features created by flowing glaciers on Earth. Thus, both would likely agree that Europa's surface is being shaped by the movement of ice.

Meteorites craters, once formed, are then smoothed or removed by Europa's surface processes. C. Meteorites craters, once formed on Europa, remain unchanged for billion of years. D. Meteorites frequently strike Europa's surface but do not leave any craters.
B is the best answer. Both scientists describe surface processes that smooth or remove meteorite craters. Scientist 1 says that the craters become smooth when liquid water oozes into the craters and then quickly freezes. Scientist 2 says the process is the result of the sublimation of ice.

Scientist 2 explains that ice sublimes to water vapor and eneter Europa's atmosphere. If ultraviolet light then broke those water vapor molecules apart, which of the following gases would one most likely expect to find in Europa's atmosphere as a result process? A. Nitrogen B. Methane C. Chlorine d. Oxygen
D is the best answer. Water vapor molecules are composed of hydrogen and oxygen. The breakdown of these molecules would lead to the production of oxygen (O2) in the atmosphere.
