The Spanish shawl nudibranch has stinging cells in its brightly colored skin. Its skin is adapted to ward off predators. The impala has yellow-brown fur. Its skin is not adapted to be a warning sign that wards off predators.

Complete the text to describe the diagram. Solute particles moved in both directions across the permeable membrane. But more solute particles moved across the membrane (). When there was an equal concentration on both sides, the particles reached equilibrium.

[ "to the right than to the left", "to the left than to the right" ]

Look at the diagram again. It shows you how the solution changed during the process of diffusion. Before the solute particles reached equilibrium, there were 3 solute particles on the left side of the membrane and 5 solute particles on the right side of the membrane. When the solute particles reached equilibrium, there were 4 solute particles on each side of the membrane. There was 1 more solute particle on the left side of the membrane than before. So, for the solute particles to reach equilibrium, more solute particles must have moved across the membrane to the left than to the right.

Which solution has a higher concentration of blue particles?

[ "Solution A", "neither; their concentrations are the same", "Solution B" ]

In Solution A and Solution B, the blue particles represent the solute. To figure out which solution has a higher concentration of blue particles, look at both the number of blue particles and the volume of the solvent in each container. Use the concentration formula to find the number of blue particles per milliliter. Solution B has more blue particles per milliliter. So, Solution B has a higher concentration of blue particles.

Which country is highlighted?

[ "Australia", "the Marshall Islands", "Papua New Guinea", "New Zealand" ]

This country is Papua New Guinea. Why does Papua New Guinea share its island with another country? Papua New Guinea takes up the eastern half of the island of New Guinea. The western half is part of Indonesia, an Asian country. Beginning in the 17 th century, several countries took control of different parts of the island of New Guinea. By 1922, Australia controlled the entire eastern half of the island, and the Netherlands controlled the western half. In 1963, control over the western half was transferred to Indonesia, which had just gained independence from the Netherlands. Many people in western New Guinea did not want to become part of Indonesia, though, and some people in this area are still fighting to leave Indonesia today. The eastern part gained independence from Australia in 1975 and became Papua New Guinea.

Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true?

[ "The magnetic force is weaker in Pair 1.", "The strength of the magnetic force is the same in both pairs.", "The magnetic force is weaker in Pair 2." ]

Distance affects the strength of the magnetic force. When magnets are farther apart, the magnetic force between them is weaker. The magnets in Pair 2 are farther apart than the magnets in Pair 1. So, the magnetic force is weaker in Pair 2 than in Pair 1.

The magnets in Pair 1 attract. The magnets in Pair 2 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Distance affects the magnitude of the magnetic force. When there is a greater distance between magnets, the magnitude of the magnetic force between them is smaller. There is a greater distance between the magnets in Pair 2 than in Pair 1. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 2 than in Pair 1.
