CSET Subject 2: Science

Subjects : cset, science
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

3. Energy in motion






4. 1. igneous 2. metamorphic 3. sedimentary






5. Occurs when light is bent while passing from one medium into another.






6. The measure of the kinetic energy in a substance's molecules. Simply - temperature is atomic motion.






7. The number of protons a particular type of atom has. The atomic number defines the type of element.






8. It spreads the work over a greater distance along the planes of the wedge.






9. Cellular division to create sex cells called haploids.






10. 1. homeostasis 2. organization 3. metabolism 4. growth 5. adaptation 6. response to stimuli 7. reproduction






11. Anything that has mass and takes up space






12. Are affected by the angle from which we view the moon.






13. Column






14. Are a progressive disturbance propagated from point to point (with regularity between points)






15. The amount of matter that makes up an atom. You can estimate an atom's atomic mass by adding up the total number of protons and neutrons.






16. Organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy






17. Stored energy






18. 1. puzzle piece argument 2. sea floor spreading 3. fossil records






19. Has the same number of protons and neutrons






20. An atom that has a different number of neutrons than its normal amount.






21. Is a change from one state to another without a change in chemical composition.






22. An ion






23. Stamen






24. Deoxyribonucleic acid






25. Describes speed and direction






26. Occur because the shadow of the Earth or the Moon is cast onto the other body.






27. Thin - flexible barrier around a cell; regulates what enters and leaves the cell






28. By wind which stirs the ocean's surface of great distances.






29. A change in position






30. A fairly typical main sequence star.






31. Cellular division creating diploid cells which are typically capable of beginning the process again.






32. 1. kingdom 2. phylum 3. class 4. order 5. family 6. genus 7. species






33. Occurs when light returns after bouncing off an object.






34. The Moon is between the Earth and the Sun.






35. One member benefits - the other is unaffected.






36. Matter and energy have the properties of both particles and waves






37. This is the motion of objects emitting or reflecting sound waves changing their frequency.






38. Both members of a symbiotic relationship benefit






39. Control center of the cell






40. As a nebula contracts - the particles collide with colossal force igniting a nuclear reaction and forming a protostar.






41. A bond formed when atoms share one or more of their valence electrons.






42. Is a substance composed of two or more elements






43. Stores food and other materials needed by the cell






44. Is the smallest unit of an element that still has the properties of that element.






45. 1. convergent 2. divergent 3. transform






46. Has a pair of chromosomes






47. 1. solid 2. liquid 3. gas






48. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.






49. Is the particular wavelength of light we observe that is not absorbed by an object.






50. Protects and supports the cell
