There are 2 types of worms: worms that eat at night (nocturnal) and
worms that eat during the day (diurnal). The birds eat during the day and seem to be eating ONLY the diurnal worms. The nocturnal worms are in their burrows during this time. Each spring when the worms
reproduce, they have about 500 babies but only 100 of these 500 ever become old enough to reproduce.
Identify a type of variation in the worms.

Answer:

Darwin's Natural Selection Worksheet Read the following situations and fill in the chart for each of the four parts of Darwin's theory of

natural selection.

D There is a species of worms that eat at night (nocturnal) and ones that eat during the

day (diurnal). The birds eat during the day and seem to be eating ONLY the diurnal

worms. The nocturnal worms are in their burrows during this time. Each spring when

the worms reproduce, they have about 500 babies but only 100 of these 500 ever

become old enough to reproduce.

2. features that are shared by more than one species


3. the extinction of many fossil species at the same time


4. the extinction of one group of organism, like corals, on which other organisms depend

Constructed Response: Identify & describe 2 ways removing trees from a forest can affect the organisms who live there. Using the vocabulary words: Organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems, abiotic factors, and biotic factors.

Approximately what percentage of human energy requirements is currently produced with fossil fuels?

What are coronary arteries? What are their function? How are they involved in heart disease?

Above a horizontal line running through the center of a double concave lens, a large car to the left of a double concave lens and a small car to the right. On the line at the front of the large car a point labeled Focal point. On the line to the right of the small car a point labeled Focal point. A dotted line 2 goes from the left focal point up and right through the center top of the lens and then solid to a label 2. A straight line goes from the top of the car straight to the center of the lens. A solid line goes from through the lens, becomes dotted, and goes to the right Focal point. A solid line goes down and right from the top of the car through the center of the lens to a label 1 below the right Focal point. A straight dotted line starts at the intersection of 1 and 2, becomes solid in the center of the lens, and goes to a label 3.
Which best explains how to correct Akio’s mistake?

Change the lens so it appears convex instead of concave.
Move the small car so it appears on the left side of the lens.
Make the small car much larger than the other car.

Item 5
What is the process the human urinary system uses to filter waste from the blood, store it and then get rid of it?

Choose all correct answers.


Waste and water from the blood are filtered in the kidneys, producing urine.

When the bladder gets full, urine exits the body through the urethra.

Urine flows through the ureter tubes and is stored in the urethra.

The blood transports urea, old cells, excess salt, and unwanted water to the bladder.

populations of helpful insects.
B. Crops can be engineered to have traits that give them better food
quality.
C. Crops can be grown without using chemical pesticides if they are
resistant to insect pests.

Identify two ways in which scientists know the physical characteristics of organisms change over time.

Consider the following data about populations of red squirrels, gray squirrels, and foxes. Two students looked at the data about how the red squirrel populations changed over time. Each made a claim about a cause-and-effect relationship. Student A: I think an increase of the fox population caused the red squirrel population to decline. Student B: I think an increase of the gray squirrel population caused the red squirrel population to decline. Which student do you agree with most? _____ Describe the evidence that supports this claim.

What type of weathering would occur in a location with an average temperature of 15 degrees Celsius and precipitation of about 200 cm per year.
