Read the paragraph and answer what data should scientist collected to understand how changes in the variable (x) affect the size of the rainforest in acres (y)

• Scientists should collect data on the amount of tourism in two different areas of the rainforest and correlate it with data on the growth of the rainforest in those areas.

• Scientists should collect data on the growth or decline of agriculture in the rainforest and correlate it with the number of acres of rainforest in those areas

• Scientists should collect data on the type of crops grown in two different areas of the rainforest and correlate it with data on the growth of the rainforest in those areas.

• Scientists should collect data on the temperature in two different areas of the rainforest and correlate it with data on the growth of the rainforest in those areas

Read the text and select what are TWO limitations of the climate models describe in the passage?

• the level of carbon dioxide emissions in the future is unknown

• the use of fossil fuels is not factored into the models

• the amount of sunlight is not considered in the models

• the use of alternative energy sources may influence the models

read the paragraph in the picture. Which statement about planetary impact craters in the early formation of the solar system is BEST supported by this theory?

• All planets likely experienced a few collisions that resulted in impact craters.

• All planets likely experienced many collisions that resulted in impact craters

• The Jovian Planets formed before others, which led to more collisions and impact craters.

• The Terrestrial Planets formed before others, which led to fewer collisions and impact craters

Which of these processes could change limestone into marble

• diagenesis

• sedimentation

• crystallization

• metamorphosis

Which TWO correctly describe processes of the water cycle occurring in the image?

• Water molecules cool on the lid and form a liquid through sublimation

• Water molecules are condensing on the lid and forming liquid precipitation

• Water is heated in the kettle, turning it from a liquid to a gas through evaporation.

• Water is heated in the kettle and released through transpiration, forming water vapor.

• Water molecules are warmed on the lid, where gravity forces them to fall to the beaker through infiltration.
