[Foil B Button] More jobs will be created in the
state.
[Foil C Button] More desirable crops can be
produced.
[Foil D Button] More technologically advanced

How can hair and blood samples best help
detectives solve crimes?
[Foil A Button] They can identify victims or
criminals.
[Foil B Button] They can identify how a
crime occurred.
[Foil C Button] They can identify the date
and time a crime occurred.
[Foil D Button] They can identify which
person is a victim and which is a criminal.
Which best represents an advancement in
agriculture due to biotechnology?
[Foil A Button] decrease in crop yield from
improved fertilizers
[Foil B Button] development of insectresistant food crops
[Foil C Button] use of antibiotics in food for
farm animals
[Foil D Button] production of fuels from
corn crops
Which best represents mutualism in an
ecosystem?
[Foil A Button] Ticks attach to the skin of dogs,
sucking blood and nutrients from the dog.
[Foil B Button] Mistletoe grows in the branches
of a tree, causing the death of the tree branch.
[Foil C Button] A clown fish lures other fish to a
sea anemone which protects the clown fish from
predators.
[Foil D Button] Barnacles attach to a whale’s
belly filtering food from the water as the whale
swims around.
The sea anemone protects the clownfish by
providing a hiding place within its stinging
tentacles, and the clownfish cleans debris off of
the sea anemone. Which best describes this
relationship?

[Foil B Button]
[Foil C Button]
[Foil D Button]
commensalism
competition
mutualism
parasitism

energy from the sun into chemical energy for
their life processes?
[Foil A Button]
[Foil B Button]
[Foil C Button]
[Foil D Button]
evapotranspiration
photosynthesis
respiration
radiation
Which best describes how green plants use the
glucose they produce in photosynthesis?
[Foil A Button] Green plants store the glucose they
produce, and it becomes a food source for animals.
[Foil B Button] Green plants use the glucose they
produce to prevent infection from bacteria and
viruses.
[Foil C Button] Green plants use the glucose they
produce to carry out life processes such as growth
and reproduction.
[Foil D Button] Green plants use the glucose they
produce as a raw material to continue the process of
photosynthesis
