- Q1Raul records the sunrise time in his town once per month for one year. His results are shown in the table. Which two characteristics of Earth MOST account for the trend in this data?Earth's distance from the Sun and period of revolutionEarth's tilt and distance from the SunEarth's tilt and period of revolutionEarth's distance from the Sun and period of rotation300s
- Q2Regions of Earth experience seasons at different times. At which position in the orbit of Earth would City X have summer?3214300s
- Q3The diagram shows the tilt of the axis of Earth. What would be the MOST likely result if the angle of the axis of Earth decreased to zero?There would be no occurrence of different seasons.There would be no changing of the phases of the Moon.Days would be longer than nights all through the year.Intensity of sunlight would be the same in all places.300s
- Q4A direct alignment of bodies in the solar system can occur. This alignment causes which phenomenon at Point X on Earth?solar eclipsewinter seasonfull moonlow tides300s
- Q5The diagram represents Earth showing two cities and the axis of rotation. The current temperature in City X is higher than in City Y. Based on the diagram which statement BEST explains this temperature difference?City X is in the northern hemisphere.City X is closer to the Sun.It is winter in City Y.It is nighttime in City Y.300s
- Q6Which Venn diagram correctly shows the relationship between Earth/the solar system/and the Milky Way galaxy?300s
- Q7Which best describes how energy from the Sun helps to maintain life on Earth?It prevents the destruction of the magnetic field around Earth that protects all life forms.It heats Earth's atmosphere and surface which helps stabilize temperatures on Earth and creates environments more favorable for life to exist.It forms the ocean's water and the oxygen in the atmosphere that organisms need for life functions.It is absorbed by Earth's mantle which drives plate tectonics to form new land masses for organisms to live.300s
- Q8What is most likely to occur when the sun/moon/and Earth are aligned in a relatively straight line?a decrease in global wind patternsa larger-than-normal height difference between low tide and high tidean increase in temperature near the equatormore earthquakes near the equator and fewer at the poles300s
- Q9The rotation of Earth on its axis is gradually slowing. This change in rotation rate will MOST likely cause thephases of the moon to change more slowly.length of the orbit around the Sun to become shorter.changing of seasons on Earth to occur more quickly.length of days on Earth to become longer.300s
- Q10India is in the Northern Hemisphere and Australia is in the Southern Hemisphere. In June it is summer in India and winter in Australia. What is the main reason the seasons are opposite in the two countries?because of the distance between the countriesbecause Earth is tilted on its axisbecause Earth revolves around the Sunbecause the Sun rotates on its axis300s
