Sarah remembered to use units this time, but added a second graph to distract you! Which of the Following is a piece of evidence about ENZYME A?

• The Enzyme only works at 40 degrees Celsius

• The Enzyme works best at temperatures below 20 degrees celsius

• The higher the temperatures, the faster the Reaction Rate

• Temperature directly affects the Reaction Rate of Enzyme A

For her final demonstration, Sarah added three data sets to the same graph; three enzymes found in humans. What conclusion could you draw from Sarah's graph?

• Each of these enzymes works best at a certain pH

• All enzymes operate best at a pH of 5

• pH does not impact enzyme activity

• Different areas of the digestive tract require different pHs to work best.

Tadpoles, the infant state of frogs, sometimes eat foods that adult frogs do not. One such example is algae with the chemical AlphaBeta. A scientist has measured the amounts of AlphaBeta in algae and in ADULT frogs to try and prove that the chemical sticks around even after the tadpoles grow into frogs. Which piece of evidence from the graph SUPPORTS this conclusion?

• The AlphaBeta has made the algae and frogs grow bigger

• The AlphaBeta concentration in algae is related to the algae concentration in frogs

• The amount of AlphaBeta in algae and frogs are unrelated

Which microscope could be used to see the INNER PARTS of dead cell's organelles (smaller parts)?

• Dissecting Microscope

• Compound (Light) Microscope

• Scanning Electron Microscope

• Transmission Electron Microscope

Which microscope could be used to see a whole insect, like a bee, in greater detail?

• Dissecting Microscope

• Compound (Light) Microscope

• Scanning Electron Microscope

• Transmission Electron Microscope

Sarah forgot to add units to her graph, leaving both the X and Y axis without numbers. What can we still interpret from Sarah's Graph?

• The enzyme works best as a specific temperature

• The enzyme works best at all temperatures

• The enzyme activity is dependent on pH

• This enzyme would work for bacteria that live in volcanos and humans equally well

Which of these inferences BEST suits the graph of species 5?

• A population of bacteria goes through periods of activity and inactivity

• A population of mice increases and becomes stable

• A population of birds increases in the spring, but decrease 2 weeks later

• A population of wolves slowly increases and then rapidly increases
