Unit 1 Name: Date: 11. Arturo is examining soil to determine its components. Write the letters of each component in the correct box to classify the source of the component. Atmosphere Biosphere Geosphere Hydrosphere C. moisture D. air pockets A. worm B. minerals 12. Coral reefs are damaged by water that is to0 warm. A warm-water event damaged three coral reefs around the same island. The table shows the coral coverage in each reef before and after the event. Effects of Warm-Water Event on Coral Reefs Coral cover Coral cover Reef before event (%) | after event (%) A 50 16 B 40 20 60 22 Which reef showed the most resilience to the damage of the warm-water event? Number the reefs in the correct order from 1 to 3, with 1 as the most resilient and 3 as the least resilient. reef A reef B reef C 13. Write the letters of the following events in the boxes to show whether they represent primary or secondary succession. A. forest fire that burns for days Primary Succession Secondary Succession B. hurricane that devastates a coral reef system C. a retreating glacier that exposes bare rock and eroded sediment D. large volcanic eruption that leaves many acres of hardened lava

Unit 1 Name: Date: 8. The European green crab is an invasive species. This crab has recently found homes in salt marshes and the mouths of rivers in Washington. A biologist is collecting data about the impact of an invasive green crab. Which experimental design will provide accurate, reliable data for evidence? A. Count invasive crabs in quadrats at a single salt marsh and use the data to predict what is happening at all salt marshes. B. Count and record observations on the populations of invasive crabs and native organisms in quadrats at a variety of salt marshes and estuaries. C. Count and record observations on the populations of invasive crabs and native organisms at an entire salt marsh and use that to predict what is happening in all salt marshes. Read each question. Follow the instructions to answer the questions. 9. Students in Ms. Choi's class are using models to represent aspects of bacterial cells. Write one letter in each box to correctly classify each type of model. Simulation Physical Model Conceptual Model A. Charlotte made a flow chart to illustrate the process of ATP production in bacteria. B. Stella ran a computer program to predict the effects of a change in the shape of a bacterium. C. Karen created a three-dimensional model of a bacteria cell showing its major structural features. 10. A scientist is studying the factors that affect a population of mammals. Write the letter of each scenario in the correct box to show whether it would cause the population of that area to increase, decrease, or stabilize. A. The birth rate and death rate in the population are roughly equal. increase population decrease population B. A deadly disease is spreading among predators of the population. stabilize population C. A natural disaster occurs and destroys valuable resources the population needs for survival.
