A scientist is designing an investigation to study the impact of predatory trout on the population of the mountain yellow-legged frog in a recreational nature park. What is most likely the test variable (independent variable) for the study? Trout population
A scientist is designing an investigation to study the impact of fungal disease on the population of mountain yellow-legged frog in a recreational nature park. What is most likely the outcome variable (dependent variable) for the study? Frog population
A scientist is designing an investigation to study the impact of UV radiation present in high-altitude habitats on the population of mountain yellow-legged frog. What type population is most likely to be a control group for the study? Frogs in high altitude habitat
What is purposefully changed during a scientific investigation? Independent variable (test variable)
What is measured during a scientific investigation? Dependent variable (Outcome variable)
What serves as a reference for comparison during a scientific investigation? Control Group
What physical evidence supports the evolution of Earth due to deposition? Streaks on the face of Wave Rock
What physical evidence supports the evolution of Earth due to chemical weathering? Red color of Bryce Canyon rocks
What physical feature is evidence that supports the evolution of Earth due to volcanic eruptions? Hawaiian Islands
While visiting Wave Rock in Australia, you observe streaks of minerals present on the landform. What natural process most likely caused the streaking? Deposition
While visiting Thor's Hammer in Bryce Canyon National park, you observe red coloring on the landform. What natural process most likely caused the red coloring? Chemical Weathering
While visiting the Grand Canyon, you observe the exposed layers of rock on the valley. What natural process most likely caused the valley to form? Erosion

The leopard uses its specialized coloration to hide in the tree while stalking its prey. Which type of adaptation does this describe? Camouflage
The eyed hawkmoth displays eyespots on its wings when it feels threatened. Which type of adaptation does this describe? Warning Coloration
The viceroy butterfly is not poisonous but has coloration that is almost identical to the poisonous monarch butterfly. Which type of adaptation does this describe? Mimicry

A scientist is designing an investigation to study the impact of the neck length of tortoises on survival rates in the Galapagos islands. What is most likely the outcome variable (dependent variable) in this investigation? Survival rate
What have we learned from fossil evidence about evolution? The process is obervable
How does the theory of evolution disprove the belief that natural selection prepares an organism to adapt to its environment? A population changes in response to a change in the environment
Which explanation justifies why the theory of evolution is a theory and not a law? Explains the existence of diverse forms of life on Earth
