Controlled burns are fires that are purposely set within a designated area when conditions are safe for the public and for the firefighters who watch over the fire. Weather and forest conditions are monitored both before and during the burn. Controlled burns rid forests of tree limbs, dead leaves, and other debris.
Which prediction can be made about a forest after a controlled burn has occurred?
Important nutrients for new plant growth will be returned to the soil.
A scientist studies the freshwater organism known as a hydra. Hydras reproduce by budding, a process in which a piece of the adult hydra breaks off and becomes a separate organism.
Which statement accurately describes the parent hydra?
What is the parent hydra used asexual reproduction and is genetically identical to the newly formed hydra.
A group of students had two clear solutions, Solution A and Solution B. They poured 30 mL of Solution A and 30 mL of Solution B into a flask, sealed the flask with a stopper, and gently shook it to mix the solutions. The students wrote down their observations and measurements.
Which statement is evidence that mass was conserved during the chemical reaction?
What is the total mass of both solutions and the flask was 370 g before and after the solutions were mixed.
How do fossil records support the theory of plate tectonics?
Similar fossils are found on various modern continents.
An equation for a chemical reaction is shown.
Which statement provides evidence that mass is conserved in the reaction?
