The data table displayed shows the results of an experiment that was done to determine how fast sugar dissolves in 400 mL of water. Which two trials should be compared to show the effect of Stir Speed on the Time to Dissolve? (Choose 2)

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

Interpreting data from a table of plant growth under different light conditions, how can you determine the effect of light intensity on plant height?

• Ignore the data in the table and make assumptions based on personal experience

• Use a ruler to measure the distance between the plants

• Count the number of leaves instead of measuring plant height

• Compare the plant height under different light conditions in the table.

Interpreting data from a table of animal behavior in different environments, how can you identify the environment that resulted in the highest activity level?

• By asking the animals which environment they prefer

• By comparing the activity levels in each environment and selecting the one with the highest average.

• By randomly selecting an environment without analyzing the data

• By choosing the environment with the lowest average activity level

Interpreting data from a table showing the relationship between temperature and the rate of a chemical reaction, what can be inferred if the rate of reaction increases as the temperature increases?

• The rate of the reaction is inversely proportional to temperature.

• The rate of the reaction decreases with temperature.

• The rate of the reaction is not affected by temperature.

• The rate of the reaction increases with temperature.

• B) Select the temperature with the highest growth rate

• C) Average the growth rates across all temperatures

• D) Ignore the data and make a guess
