Trees need water so they can make their own food. trees take in water using their roots. if a drought occurred reducing the amount of available water, some trees, such as those with deep roots that can reach the water table, would be naturally selected over other trees. if the drought continued for an extended period of time, the trees would likely evolve until most of the trees possessed drought-resistant characteristics. which of the following allows natural selection and evolution to occur? a. using other plant parts instead of roots to absorb water b. differences in the characteristics of individual trees c. having an identical genetic make-up d. increasing the height of the water table

You will be galileo perform the experiment to determine if objects with different mass fall at the same, or different, rates in the air and in a vacuum. before you conduct your experiment, you need to form a hypothesis. a hypothesis is a prediction of what you think will happen in the experiment. the hypothesis is a statement that describes “if” a certain set of circumstances are present “then” there will be a specific result that will occur.record your hypothesis here: record the results from step one of the experiment (dropping the objects in the air): first trial: second trial: third trial: record the results from step two of the experiment (dropping the objects in a vacuum): first trial: second trial: third trial: did the experiment support your hypothesis? using the data from your experiment, describe why you believe your hypothesis was either proven or disproven.what forces were acting on the objects dropped in the air? what force was acting on the objects dropped in the vacuum? part two: comparing forceschoose two forces and compare and contrast these forces. you must provide two ways that they are alike and two ways that they are different. you may make a list, write in paragraph form, or make a chart.choose two forces and compare and contrast these forces. these must be different forces than used in the prior question. provide two ways that they are similar and two ways that they are different. you may make a list, write it out, or make a chart.

Chlorophyll is found in plant leaves and absorbs light from the sun to enable plants to perform photosynthesis. magnesium is an important component of chlorophyll. the concentration of magnesium ions is higher in the root-hair cells of plants than in the soil. which mechanism of ion uptake would best enable a plant to produce a steady supply of chlorophyll? osmosis diffusion passive transport active transport

This is one form of rna that transports a specific amino acid to a ribosome during protein synthesis.
