Question No : 6
Temperature affects how well gases and solids dissolve to form solutions. Gas solubility increases with decreasing temperature. Cold water can hold more oxygen than warm water.
Fish require dissolved oxygen in the water for respiration. During the hot summer, Allan goes fishing at a nearby lake.
Based on the information, which statement indicates where and why Allan would find the most fish?

A.shady areas because there is less dissolved oxygen gas in cool water
B.sunny areas because there is no dissolved oxygen gas in warm water
C.shady areas because there is more dissolved oxygen gas in cool water
D.sunny areas because there is more dissolved oxygen gas in warm water
E.both shady and sunny areas because the amount of dissolved oxygen gas in water is not changed by temperature

Question No : 7
Transpiration is the evaporation of water produced during photosynthesis from the parts of a plant exposed to air, especially from its leaves. The rate of transpiration varies among species of plants, as seen in the table below.

Which statement best explains why the transpiration rate of a cactus is so much lower than that of a rose bush and a dogwood?

A.The cactus has adapted to dry climates through greatly reduced leaf surfaces.
B.The cactus contains parasitic insects that are consuming the water in the plant’s roots.
C.The rose and the dogwood are water plants, so water cannot evaporate from their surfaces.
D.The dogwood transpires more than the rose because the dogwood’s roots are deeper.
E.The cactus is not a plant, so it does not produce water during photosynthesis.

Question No : 15
Animal populations are regulated by a variety of natural factors. Five of these factors are:
✑ competition―A struggle among rival organisms results when available resources
(for example, food or shelter) are limited. ✑ predation―Many animals pursue and eat other animals as prey. ✑ disease―In overcrowded populations, the buildup of waste products contributes to
the easy spread of disease. ✑ stress―In some populations, overcrowding can lead to hormonal disorders, which can cause abnormal behavior, thereby limiting the population. ✑ natural disaster―The occurrence of storms, floods, and earthquakes can significantly affect a population’s size.
✑ During the Middle Ages, the human population of Western Europe was severely reduced by a combination of unsanitary conditions and the abundance of flea-infested rats that spread the plague.
Based on the information provided, which of the following factors was responsible for the population reduction?

A.competition
B.predation
C.disease
D.stress
E.natural disaster
