QUESTION: 279
Which conclusion is consistent with the results of the study?

Answer: B
QUESTION: 282

A chemistry student placed a strip of blue litmus paper and a strip of pink litmus paper in a glass
dish. Then she added a drop of dilute sulfuric acid to each strip of litmus paper. She observed
that the blue litmus paper turned pink, but the pink litmuspaper did not change color. Next she
placed a drop of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) on other strips of blue and pink litmus paper. This
time, the pink litmus paper turned blue, but the blue litmus paper did not change. Finally, she put
a drop of distilled water onstrips of blue and pink litmus paper. Neither strip changed color. She
repeated the tests several times with the same results. The student concluded that acids turn blue
litmus paper pink; bases, such as sodium hydroxide, turn pink litmus paper blue.As water did not
affect either pink or blue litmus paper, she reasoned that water was not an acid or a base, but a
neutral substance.
Keeping these results in mind, the student poured a little sodium hydroxide into a beaker
containingpink and blue litmus paper. Then she added hydrochloric acid (HCl) drop by drop
until the solutionbecame neutral. She determined that a new, neutral substance had formed in the
beaker. The substance was table salt, or sodium chloride (NaCl), which isone of many salts
formed from an acid and a base. If a drop of an unknown substance turns blue litmus paper pink,
but does not change pink litmus paper, the substance is a(n):
A. acid
B. base
C. water
D. salt
Answer: A
QUESTION: 283
In the presence of potassium hydroxide (KOH):
A. blue litmus paper turns pink
B. pink litmus paper turns blue
C. blue litmus paper becomes darker
D. pink litmus paper does not change
Answer: B
QUESTION: 284
When strips of
blue and pink litmus paper are put in a beaker filled with a clear solution, neither
litmus paper changes color. The solution:
A. must be water
108
B. must be neutral
C. may be an acid
D. may be a base
Answer: B
QUESTION: 285
In another experiment, the student added hydrochloric acid drop by drop to a solution of sodium
hydroxide containing strips of originally blue and originally pink litmus paper. As she continued
adding acid, the originally:
A. pink litmus paper remained pink
B. blue litmus paper remained blue
C. blue litmus paper turned from pink back to blue
D. pink litmus paper turned from blue back to pink
Answer: D
QUESTION: 286
In setting up an aquarium, several factors must be considered before introducing fish. Which of
the following factors could be tested using litmus paper?
A. salinity
B. acidity
C. chlorination
D. temperature
Answer: B
QUESTION: 287
The complex behavior of the poor-sighted, three-spined male stickleback fish has been studied
extensively as a model of species behavior in courtship and mating. After a male has migrated to
a suitable spot, he builds a spawning nest of sand and sediment. In courting, he performs a
special "zigzag" dance. The female then follows the male to the nest where she spawns and he
fertilizes the spawned eggs. Also, male sticklebacks have been shown to exhibit territorial
behaviors. A biologist performed three experiments to learn more about the behavior of the
stickleback.
Experiment 1:
109
Tank 1 and Tank 2 are set up with identical conditions and one male stickleback is placed in each
tank. Both fish build nests in their respective tanks. The male from Tank 1 is removed from his
tank and is replaced with an egg-laden female; the male from Tank 2 is removed from his tank
and is introduced into Tank 1. In Tank 1, the male does not perform the zigzag dance and no
spawning occurs. The male retreats to a corner of the tank.
Experiment 2:
A male stickleback in an aquarium builds his nest. A fat, round male is introduced into the
environment. The original male performs the zigzag dance and attempts to lead the round male to
the nest. The round male refuses and begins to flap his fins and swim in circles. The first male
then begins to flap his fins, circle his nest, and occasionally prod the other fish to a far corner of
the tank.
Experiment 3:
A small, flat-shaped female is introduced into a tank where a male has built a nest. The male
circles the female a few times, and then retreats to a corner of the tank.
The experimental data would support the hypothesis that the purpose of the male stickleback's
mating dance is to:
A. keep away other male sticklebacks.
B. fertilize the eggs.
C. lure and entice the female to the nest
D. establish territorial rights.
Answer: C
QUESTION: 288
Based on observations from the above experiments, which factor initially stimulates the male to
do the zigzag dance?
A. The physical environment.
B. The shape of the fish.
C. The number of fish in the tank.
D. The sex of the fish.
Answer: A
QUESTION: 289
Which experiment supports the hypothesis that the male exhibits territorial behavior?
A. 1 only.
110
B. 2 only.
C. 1 and 2 only.
D. 1, 2, and 3.
Answer: C
QUESTION: 290
To further investigate the territorial behavior of the stickleback, the biologist should vary which
of the following factors in Experiment 2?
A. The temperature of the water.
B. The fatness of the male fish.
C. The sediment and sand in the tank.
D. The size of the tank.
Answer: D
QUESTION: 291
To clarify the results of Experiment 1, the biologist should set up which of the following test
situations?
A. Maintain the positions of the male sticklebacks and add another egg-laden female to Tank 1.
B. Place both male sticklebacks in Tank 2.
C. Return the original male stickleback to Tank 1 and observe its behavior with the female fish.
D. Repeat the experiment using a different species of fish.
Answer: C
QUESTION: 292
A male stickleback has been established in an aquarium and has built a nest. If one egg-laden
female and several flat-shaped male sticklebacks are placed in the tank, one would most likely
observe:
A. all the males would perform the zigzag dance.
B. all the males would circle the female.
C. only the male that was originally in the tank would perform the zigzag dance.
D. the female would retreat to a corner.
