This question was based on investigations of the effects of caffeine on memory in bees. Caffeine is often
produced by plants in their nectar, and researchers studied the effect of caffeine on the probability of bees
remembering and, therefore, revisiting a nectar source. Students were presented with a data table indicating
the average probability of bees revisiting caffeinated and caffeine-free (control) nectar sources after 10
minutes and after 24 hours. The data included inferential error bars to compare groups. Students were asked
to construct an appropriate graph based on the data provided. Students were then asked to describe the
effect of caffeine on the short-term (10 minute) and long-term (24 hour) memory of a nectar source. Next,
students were asked to design an experiment using artificial flowers to investigate potential negative effects
of increasing caffeine concentrations in nectar on the number of floral visits by bees. As part of their
experimental design, students were asked to identify the null hypothesis, an appropriate control treatment,
and the predicted results that could be used to reject the null hypothesis. Finally, students were told that
nectar with caffeine often has a lower sugar content than nectar without caffeine, and plants expend less
energy to produce caffeine than to produce sugar. Based on this information, students were asked to propose
one benefit to plants that produce nectar with caffeine and to propose one cost to bees that visit the flowers
of the plants that produce nectar with caffeine.

List two new traits (structural or behavioral) that each new species of rat might demonstrate as it adapts to the conditions on two of the four islands. choose only two islands that are described in the lesson. record the island latter and the major habitat feature of the island. then list two new traits each rat subspecies might demonstrate in order to survive the habitat on that island. note: new traits should be unique to that island and be in response to that island’s habitat feature. i cannot remember islands that were names in the lesson so only answer if you have done the lesson (5.13 life science 7b) choose 2 of the islands and describe a structural and a behavioral trait for a rat on each island so 4 total answers, 2 different structurals and 2 different behaviorals, one for each rat for each island

Prior to the development of dna fingerprinting, blood type could be used to determine possible parentage. although it might prove someone was not a parent, it could not show if someone was positively the parent, only that he or she might be a parent. which of the following is a true statement that can be made about parentage based on blood typing?
