Study Notes
Life Science
- Autotrophs use photosynthesis to produce food from sunlight.
- Plants release oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis.
Physical Science
- Burning lamp oil is classified as a chemical reaction.
- An engine that is 100% efficient contradicts the laws of thermodynamics.
Earth and Space Science
- Fossils are preserved remains or traces of formerly alive organisms, commonly found in sedimentary rock.
- Fossils are primarily located in sedimentary rock types.
Mathematics
- Rounding 732.15 + 641.43 results in 1374.
- 63,159.456 rounded to the hundreds place is 63,200.
- The additive inverse of 3 is -3.
- The sum of the multiplicative inverses of 2 and 5 is 7/10.
General Science
- The noble gas most commonly used for brightly-colored advertising signs is neon.
- Bromine is NOT a noble gas among the options provided.
- Scraping electrons from hair while brushing gives the hair a positive charge.
- Hydrogen fuel cells can produce energy without using a turbine.
Symbiotic Relationships
- In a symbiotic relationship, it's possible for zero organisms to benefit.
Toxins in Food Chains
- Producers in a food chain will show the least accumulation of toxins compared to herbivores or predators.
Oil Reservoir Formation
- An oil reservoir requires three components: source rock, porous and permeable reservoir rock, and a cap rock.
Cave Formation
- Calcium carbonate deposition contributes to the formation of stalactites and stalagmites in caves.
Weathering
- Chemical weathering is caused by acid rain.
- Increased burning of fossil fuels can lead to a rise in acid rain.
Energy Production
- Ethanol is produced by fermenting crops like corn and sugar cane, reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
- Biodiesel is derived from food products, including vegetable oils and animal fats.
