The hypothesis states that increasing the temperature of a magnet will make it attract fewer paper clips. After increasing the temperature, the number of paper clips attracted to the magnet would be the:

• Independent variable

• Dependent variable

• Control group

• Constant variable

The hypothesis states that increasing the temperature of a magnet will make it attract fewer paper clips. The size of the magnets is an example of a(n)

• Independent variable

• Dependent variable

• Control group

• Constant variable

Two or more organs working together to perform body functions

• Organ system

• Organ

• Organism

• Organelle

The hypothesis states that increasing the temperature of a magnet will make it attract fewer paper clips. An initial trial of a magnet at normal temperature (room temperature) would be the:

• Independent variable

• Dependent variable

• Control group

• Constant variable

Which "reasoning" statement would best support this scientific claim: Plants exposed to acid rain will produce less fruit than those that are not exposed to acid rain.

• Plant A, exposed to acid rain, grew 4 fruit, whereas Plant B, not exposed to acid rain, grew 10 fruit.

• Plant A, exposed to acid rain, grew 1.4 cm more than Plant B that was not exposed to acid rain.

• Plant A, exposed to acid rain, grew 1.4 cm less than Plant B that was not exposed to acid rain.

• An acidic environment around a plant cell causes it to lose water to the environment, therefore producing less fruit.
