Katie designed an experiment to show a water cycle process. The steps of the experiment are shown below. Pour some water into a

small plastic cup. Place the cup carefully into a dry zip lock bag. Zip the bag and keep it in the sun. Observe that the level of water in the cup decreases after one day. Which of these processes in the water cycle is demonstrated by Katie in the experiment?

Katie was experimenting on the part of the water cycle called Evaporation. Evaporation is when water turns into mist and goes into the atmosphere. <span />

Answer: Evaporation process

Explanation: The water cycle refers to the cyclic process, how water is transferred from one form to the other. Water from the oceans, seas and rivers gets evaporated due to heating, and rises up into the atmosphere forming water vapor, and in association with that, some of the water is also released into the atmosphere from the plants by the process of evapo-transpiration. This later then gets accumulated in the atmosphere and condenses and falls back as rain.

The water that falls on the surface of the earth again undergoes various processes. Some part of the water gets percolated through the ground and mixes up with the ground water. Some water flows as surface run of and mixes with the rivers and lakes that ultimately mixes up with the ocean water and some of the water is absorbed by the plant roots.

This maintains a cyclic process and this circulating pattern of water plays a significant role in the various weather patterns.

Thus, in the given condition, katie's experiment showed the process of evaporation, where she collected the water in a zip lock bag. The water decreases due to the evaporation process.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The original water sample contains 830,000 cells per milliliter.

Explanation:

A sample of well water is tested for its bacterial content in a plate count assay. A one-milliliter sample of the water is diluted in a 1:10 dilution series. One milliliter of the fourth dilution tube is plated in a pour plate. After incubation, the plate has 83 colonies, indicating that the original water sample contained 830,000 cells per milliliter.

Seasons of Change Activity Worksheet—Disappearing Marine Iguanas Case Study
baherus [9]

Answer:

1. Using the map and the minimal knowledge that Liz has at this point, propose three different hypotheses regarding the sudden high mortality of marine iguanas. Record your answers in the worksheet and post your hypotheses to the 03.01 class discussion board before proceeding to the next question.  (3 points possible)

Hypotheses One:  Iguanas are adapted to hot/warm weather, so the weather changed could have affected them.

Hypotheses Two: There was not enough shelter for the iguanas so they started disappearing.

Hypotheses Three: A new species has come close to where the iguanas live and taken them out.

2. Look at your classmates’ hypotheses on the discussion board. Choose one hypothesis that seems most likely to you. Provide the student name and hypothesis and tell what evidence you would need to support (or refute) it. (3 points possible)   Carter Spiers, Hypothesis 1. there was a lot of rain and it washed at the iguanas away. We would have to dive into the water/ ocean and find iguana bodies to be able to prove that this is true.

3. Given what you know at this point about marine iguanas and the abiotic effects of ENSO, develop two possible directions of research that Liz should pursue to understand exactly why the iguanas suffered such a high mortality. Keep in mind that you need to consider indirect effects. While environmental temperature does change metabolic rates of ectotherms, the iguanas are exposed to a wide range of temperatures as they feed and bask on the lava. Direct mortality in response to a temperature change of a couple of degrees is unlikely.  (3 points possible)

Possible Research Direction One: The climate event caused a lot more rainfall which then made it very hard for the iguanas to reach their food source.

Possible Research Direction Two: The temperatures raised very high causing the iguanas to absorb a extreme about of extra heat, which eventually made them very lazy and stopped defending their self from predators.  

4. Choose one of those directions of research and determine what data you would need to find to support your ideas.  (2 points possible)          Specific data of the extreme amounts of rainfall.
