3) dissolved oxygen 4) hydrogen sulfide 5) coliform bacteria 17. An environmental science student observed a sound meter recording of 100 decibels when a train entered the station? What conclusion can be drawn from this observation? 12. Which factor is a major cause of global warming? 1) increased number of green plants 2) decrease in atmospheric CO. 3) increased burning of fuels d) increase in photosynthesis 1) This sound volume meets health standards. 2)This sound level would not be damaging to the ears. 3)This volume of sound constitutes noise pollution. 4)This sound level is not considered an example of noise pollution. 13. The effluent coming from a typical sewage treatment plant is 1) free of all pollutants 2) low in pathogens 3) high in sludge 4) high is fecal wastes Base your answers to questions 18 to 20 on the following chemical reaction CO: + H;0 - H,CO, + HCO, + H* co + 2H 18. This chemical reaction can produce 1) a small number of hydrogen ions 2) a large number of hydroxyl ions 3) ocean acidification 4) anoxia 19. A possible source of carbon dioxide is 1) photosynthesis 2) algae 3) chemosynthesis 4) fossil fuels 20. Adding Ca To this reaction would result in 1) a decrease in H* 2) an increase if H' 3) an increase in pH 4) a decrease in alkalinity |22. The gas being measured in tho atmosphere is 1) carbon monoxide 2) carbon dioxide Atmospheric CO, at Mauna Loa Observatory 3) sulfur dioxide 4) nitrogen dioxide 5) methane 380- 1958-1974 Sorppe Inst. Oceanography 1974-ac0R NDAAESAI. 23.The graph shows that 1) CO: levels in the atmosphere have decreased over the years 2) Global warming is occurring 3) The sea level is rising 4) Almuspheric CO, has increused in the atmosphere between 1960 and 2008 360 340 24. Which explanation best explains the rise and fall each year in CO, from 1960 to 2008? 1) seasonal variations due to respiration 2) scasonal variations in photosynthesis 3) more pollution occurs during the summer than during the winter 4) global warming NORA 320 1960 1970 1980 1890 2000 2010 YEAR Buse your answers to questions 21 to 25 on the above graph 21. What is the approximate level of CO: produced in 1980? 1) 380 ppm 2) 360ppm 3) 340ppm 4) 320ppm 25. What part of the scientific method would the above graph illustrate? I) hypothesis 2) materials 3) procedure 4) results 5) conclusion Read the following account of an environmental problem and then answer questions I through 4 on your answer paper using one or more complete sentences. The Plight of the Piping Plover The piping plover is a small sparrow-like shore bird that nests in the sand near the water on remote beaches and barrier islands along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Since they blend in so well with their suroundings, the nests are often trampled upon unknowingly by bathers and people who want to fish. In addition, some nearby residents like to use their all terrain vehicles(ATV's) for recreational use along the shore. Environmental groups have drawn up petitions against the destruction of the nest sites because claim that the piping plover is a threatened species that could become extinct if measures are not tal protect its habitat. The State Governor, and you, as the Mayor of the Town of Birdsville have received petitions and threatening calls from both sides on this issue. The Governor, who is running for re-election, instruc you to come up with a quick resolution to this problem. 1. Identifv the problem bv explaining the groups in conflict. 5 points II ...
