- Q1Which of the following incorrectly explains the cause and effect relationship of the 4 evolutionary milestones?Single-cell organisms found they could work more efficiently together, leading to the development of multi-cellular organisms. This resulted in cells that became specialized and complexWhen resources became scarce in aquatic ecosystems, organisms began searching for resources on land. This lead to the colonization of land. As a result, organisms eventually developed by systems to completely support life on land.One specialization that cells developed was biomineralization. This allowed multi-celled organisms to develop shells, increasing their protection and chance of survival.After cells became multi-cellular, they were able to specialize. One specialization was photosynthesis, which resulted in free oxygen in the atmosphere.30s
- Q2An evolution milestones occur as a result of..an organisms need for protection during its lifetimean organisms need for resources during its lifetimemutations and natural selection30s
- Q3Which of the following best explains how we know that the ancestors of whales lived on land?They have lungs and have to come up to the surface to breatheThey look similar to animals live on land, such as their size and behaviorTheir skeletal systems are similar to land mammals, but have been specialized for swimmingThey are too large to have developed in the ocean, indicating they must have evolved on land30s
- Q4Fossils can help determine all of the following except..the size of a population at any given timehow animals evolved over timeclimate of the pastbehaviors of animals in the past30s
- Q5Which of the following explains how fertilizer negatively affects different cycles?fertilizer has no affect on cyclesfertilizer increases the amount of nitrogen which allows more plants growing in an area, which helps take more carbon dioxide out of the atmospherefertilizer for farming increases nitrogen in the ecosystem and can be carried into bodies of water through runoff, which can cause deadzonesfertilizer increases the amount of nitrogen which allows more plants to grow in an area, decreasing weathering and erosion of soil30s
- Q6Which cycle does not involve the atmosphere?watercarbonphosphorusnitrogen30s
- Q7What can this fossil tell you about the organisms life in the past?ageclimatebehaviorinteractions30s
- Q8How do humans negatively impact the phosphorus cycle?Increasing plants in an areaIncreasing the amount of animals in an areaBurning fossil fuelsIncreasing the rate of erosion through mining and construction30s
- Q9The image above shows which cycle?waternitrogenphosphoruscarbon30s
- Q10If a fossil contains a 1:3 ratio of a parent isotope, how many half-lives have passed?321430s
- Q11Which law of relative rock dating states that the youngest layer is on top?Law of IntrusionsLaw of InclusionsLaw of Cross-cuttingLaw of Superposition30s
- Q12Which layer of Earth makes up the tectonic plates?mantlelithosphereouter coreasthenosphere30s
- Q13If a Earth quake registered P waves and S waves that occurred 4 minutes seconds apart, how far away was the epicenter?5000 miles4000 miles2000 miles3000 miles30s
- Q14What type of boundary is occurring above and what will it form?divergent- a mid-ocean ridgeconvergent- volcano and trenchconvergent- mountain rangetransform- earthquake30s
