Florida is known as the "Sunshine State" because we have high amounts of sunlight exposure. How does all this sunlight affect the water cycle?

The water cycle will be more active due to higher evaporation rates

The water cycle will be less active due to lower evaporation rates

The water cycle will be unaffected

The water cycle will be more active due to higher percolation.

A local forest is infected with a disease that prevents tree roots from absorbing water and

transporting it throughout the plant. How will this affect the water cycle?

Transpiration will decrease; evaporation will be unaffected

Transpiration will increase; evaporation will increase

Transpiration will be unaffected; evaporation will be unaffected

Transpiration will be unaffected; evaporation will decrease

Combustion is a process of the carbon cycle where humans burn fossil fuels to produce energy. Which of the following statements correctly describes a consequence of burning fossil fuels? (hint: where does the carbon end up?)

Humans burning fossil fuels will lead to increased levels of carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere.

If humans decrease their reliance on combustion, underground fossil fuels will also decrease.

Increased combustion of fossil fuels will encourage higher rates of respiration.

Decreased combustion of fossil fuels will lead to more organic carbon for photosynthetic

organisms like plants.
