The student sprayed a small amount of water into the terrarium, placed a thermometer inside, and then sealed the terrarium with a lid. Next, the terrarium was placed on a table where it was exposed to sunlight. The student checked the terrarium a few times each day for one month. During that time the plants produced new stems and leaves. The student noticed that water droplets formed on the inside of the glass jar. The number of droplets was greatest on sunny days and was usually greater in the morning than in the evening. The student also observed that the temperature inside the terrarium was highest during the day when the sun was shining.
Part A: The water in the spray bottle has a temperature of 25 C. The thermometer in the terrarium reads 30 C, and a thermometer in the room where the terrarium is located reads 25 C. The temperature outdoors is 40 C.
What is the temperature of the water vapor inside the terrarium? Select the correct temperature.
The temperature of the water vapor inside the terrarium would be 30°C.

Part B: Construct the sentence by selecting the correct answers from the drop-down menus.
The temperature of the water vapor demonstrates that areas with (lower/higher/the same) temperatures (cool/heat/stabilize) objects of lower temperature until objects reach (a lower/a higher/the same) temperature.
The temperature of the water vapor demonstrates that areas with higher temperatures heat objects of lower temperature until objects reach a higher temperature.
Carbon atoms from glucose molecules that a grasshopper eats may become part of the grasshopper's protective covering, or exoskeleton, and then return to the ecosystem when the exoskeleton is shed. Figure 1: Cell Respiration Reaction shows the chemical reaction that takes place within the grasshopper's cells

Which statement best describes the chemical reaction shown in this image?
Glucose is broken down into smaller molecules to be used by the body.
Food is produced using chemical compounds and energy from the sun.
Compounds are broken down to produce oxygen for the organism to breathe.
Energy for movement is released by the breakdown of carbon as atoms are rearranged.
Energy for movement is released by the breakdown of carbon as atoms are rearranged.
A grasshopper's body is made up of molecules and atoms, including glucose carbon, oxygen, and other chemical compounds. Figure 2: Partial Carbon Cycle shows some ways that carbon is cycled through the ecosystem
Image Description:
A grasshopper produces a molted exoskeleton, which decays into the air and a plant. Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, which then makes plants take in carbon dioxide from atmosphere and causes decay.
Use the model to show how carbon cycles through an ecosystem. Starting with "A grasshopper molts its exoskeleton, " put the remaining events in the correct order from top to bottom.
1. A grasshopper molts its exoskeleton.
2. _______
3. _______
4. _______
5. _______
6. _______
Drag and drop the correct choice into the blank spaces above
The grasshopper takes in carbon molecules
Decay occurs
Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere
Plants produce glucose.
Plants take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
