Johannes wants to know whether soil, water, or both are needed for plant growth. He chooses to conduct experiments on a willow tree for five years to answer his question. How can his experimental methods be changed to improve his experiment?

A
He needs to ask scientists what they think.
B
He needs to conduct the experiment for a longer period.
C
He needs to use a larger sample size.
D
He needs to test more factors in the environment.
6

Which statement best describes the relationship of photosynthesis and energy?

A
The process of photosynthesis is energy-storing because the process converts light energy into chemical energy, which is stored in the bonds of glucose.
B
The process of photosynthesis is energy-releasing because the process converts light energy into free energy that can be used for cell functions.
C
The process of photosynthesis is energy-conserving because no energy is used throughout the process of forming glucose and oxygen molecules.
D
The process of photosynthesis is energy-wasting because photosynthesis is an inefficient process that depletes the cell of energy stored in the bonds of glucose.
7

How are the reactants represented in the chemical equation for photosynthesis?

A
6CO2 + O2
B
6CO2 + 6H2O
C
C6H12O6 + 6O2
D
C6H12O6 + 6H2O
8

In which situation would it be least likely for a scientist to revise her experimental methods?

A
if her results support her hypothesis
B
if her data do not support her hypothesis
C
if no conclusions can be drawn from the data
D
if results are the same after repeating the procedure
9

Which is an example of why the process of photosynthesis is important to life on Earth?

A
Grass uses photosynthesis to produce glucose, which is used within the grass for growth.
B
Fungi use photosynthesis to decompose dead and decaying plant matter.
C
Ectothermic animals use photosynthesis to convert sunlight into energy for cell functions.
D
Green plants use photosynthesis to remove oxygen gas from the atmosphere and replenish the earth’s carbon dioxide.
10

Which of these statements is true about autotrophs, but not heterotrophs?

A
They use sugar and oxygen to make carbon dioxide and water.
B
They use chlorophyll and oxygen to make carbon dioxide and water.
C
They use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make sugars.
D
They use sunlight, water, and oxygen to make chlorophyll.
