 The picture shows an experiment designed to investigate
biochemical activity in a water plant in a dark room. Over time,
bubbles can be easily observed and counted as they escape
from the funnel. The number of bubbles is an indicator of the
rate of photosynthesis. Which of these data tables best reflects
the expected results of this experiment?

ANS B

 In an activity, a ball is dropped from a height of
100 cm onto five different materials. The rebound
height of each drop is shown in the graph. Which
of the following describes the hypothesis most
likely being tested?
 A The mass of the ball affects the rebound height.
 B The material the ball is made of affects the
rebound height.
 C The height the ball is dropped from affects the
rebound height.
 D The surface the ball is dropped onto affects the
rebound height.
