Which of the following is true concerning energy flow through an ecosystem’s food chain? a. primary consumers collect their energy from the sun. b. the sun is the final receiver of energy in an ecosystem. c. energy is lost at each successive energy level in the chain. d. tertiary consumers account for the largest store of energy.

98 points 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 forces choose 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.

When an experimenter draws a conclusion that he assumes will apply to all situations set up similarly to his test situation, even though he cannot possibly have examined all possible test scenarios, the experimenter is using deductive reasoning inductive reasoning abductive reasoning subjective reasoning

Which statement is true according to the kinetic theory? a. molecules of different gases with the same mass and temperature always have the same average density. b. molecules of different gases with the same mass and temperature always have the same average volume. c. molecules of different gases with the same mass and temperature always have the same pressure. d. molecules of different gases with the same mass and temperature always have the same molecular mass. e. molecules of different gases with the same mass and temperature always have the same average kinetic energy.
