Aquatic Science Semester 1 Finals

Ice, liquid, water

Solid, ice, water vapor

Water vapor, liquid, gas

Ice, water, water vapor

Viscosity is how well something sinks or floats

Viscosity is the resistance within a liquid that affects the speed at which it flows’

Viscosity is the measure of friction within a liquid

Both B and C

They are animals with no backbone that are visible to the naked eye

They are categorized into three groups by how they react to pollution: very sensitive, somewhat sensitive, and tolerant

You can tell long term health of a stream by looking at them

All of the above

Underground flow

Surface run-off

Precipitation

Infiltration

The water molecules expand

The water molecules condense and get denser

The water molecules get less dense and float

Both A and C

The oceanic layer is thicker and more dense

The continental crust is thinner and lighter

Oceanic is made of basalt and continental made of granite

All are true

Volcanoes

Earthquakes

Convection currents in Earth's mantle

Hot spots from the sun

An area of low-lying ground adjacent to a river, formed mainly of river sediments and subject to flooding

An area on the continental shelf that gets covered with water during low tide.

A reservoir to collect rain water.

A populated area that was devastated by a flood.

Warm blooded organisms swimming

Icebergs

The heat from the sun

Wind

True

False

Surface organisms will sink

Polar molecules will mix in all the water

Some surface organisms will sink and some will float

Both A and B

Sublimation is the process sweat goes through when it is evaporating

Sublimation can be found in aquifers as the rain infiltrates through the soils

Sublimation can occur from snow-covered mountains and glaciers

None of these are true

A low water table can be caused by too much water being pumped out and used by people or by a drought

If the water table is high, springs can disappear in the land.

A high water table causes rivers and lakes to lose water

None of these are true

The watershed or drainage basin is divided by the person who owns the property

The watershed or drainage basin divide is created by where the river flows

The divide is created by the highest points of land surrounding the watershed or drainage basin

The divide is created by the political government in which the watershed or drainage basin is found.

Neither subducts; they crumple

One subducts under, but neither crumple

One subducts under, the other crumples

Neither subducts; they crumple

One subducts under, but neither crumple

One subducts under, the other crumples

Neither subducts; they crumple

One subducts under, but neither crumple

One subducts under, the other crumples

Both are made of iron and nickel

The inner core is liquid metal and the outer core is a solid.

The outer core is hotter than the inner core.

All are true

Oceans would overheat on hot days

Oceans would freeze on freezing days

Everything in the water would die

All of the above

Liquid 1

Liquid 2

Liquid 3

Not enough information

As evaporation increases

Around ice as ice melts in spring

Near the mouth of rivers

With an increase in rain

25%

50%

75%

85%

Only man-made

Used to prevent flooding

Along the sides of a river

Both B and C

They live in different habitats in the stream

They have different niches: what they eat and how capture food.

They have different adaptations

All of the above

Coal deposits found in cold places; Glacial deposits found in warm places

Same mountain layers on different continents

Coral reef remains found in cold places

All are evidences

True

False

It stays in the same place

It washes into the nearest stream

It can pollute things downstream

Both B and C

Climate and amount of rainfall

Geology of the land (hills, valleys)

Man-made geography

All of the above

They are the reason that the oceanic and continental plates move

Hot magma rises from the bottom and cools as it goes up

Cooler magma near the top sinks and heats as is goes down

All are true

Nothing – they are tough enough to survive with the extra oxygen

They would die from too much oxygen

They would die from not enough oxygen.

None of the above

It can float on the top

It mixes evenly with the water

It breaks apart into individual atoms and attaches to the water molecules

Both A and C

True

False

As evaporation increases

Around ice as it melts in spring

Near the mouth of rivers

Both B and C

The oxygen end is slightly negative and the hydrogen end is slightly positive

The hydrogen end is slightly negative and the oxygen end is slightly positive

The hydrogen and oxygen ends change in polarity

Because it is neutrally charged.

Nothing, It already does

Ice would sink

Ponds and lakes would freeze solid

Both B and C

Turn off water when you brush your teeth of soap your hands

Wash your car on the driveway

Plant native plants that do not require as much water

Wash only full loads of dishes or clothes

Warmer water is less dense and floats; colder water is denser and sinks.

Fresh water is less dense and floats; salt water is denser and sinks.

Water in an 8‰ (salinity) sea is less dense and floats while water in a 40‰ (Salinity) sea is denser and sinks.

None of the above are false

Water freezes at 32°F and 0°C

Water boils at 212°F and 100°C

Both A and B are true

Both A and B are false

Groundwater is water stored beneath the surface

Groundwater comes directly from precipitation

Groundwater flows to the ocean in underground rivers

Infiltration refills the groundwater

Phytoplankton needs to have sun available for photosynthesis

Some aquatic organisms need to be able to see to hunt for food of find mates

Some aquatic organisms need to be able to smell to hunt for food

All of the above

Precipitation

Transpiration

Sublimation

Perspiration
