A group of early giraffes lives in a lush forest with many trees and shrubs of different heights to feed on. These giraffes have necks of various lengths, with most giraffes having a medium length neck. Then a blight passed through the area, killing off all of the low growing plants, leaving only tall trees whose leaves are far off the ground. Giraffes with shorter necks now have a hard time getting food, while those with longer necks can feed on the high-growing leaves. After several generations, the giraffes in this area all have longer necks than those before the blight. What type of selection has occurred in this giraffe population? Explain using evidence from the problem.

Sally and sue were investigating the topic of friction in science. they used a small car and a ramp as seen in the picture to test what they were learning. they knew that they slipped easily on waxed floors but not on carpet, so they decided to change the material on the surface of the ramp to see what happened. they planned to use glass, carpet, aluminum foil, and sandpaper and run the car down the ramp over each surface. what would be the best research question to guide the girls' experiment? a) does the amount of surface area affect the friction on the moving car? b) will the car travel fastest on the glass surface? c) how does the angle of the ramp affect the speed of the car? d)do rougher surfaces tend to create more friction than smooth surfaces?
