Grade 8 Soil
In which environment might soil be MORE acidic?
  1. a dry environment
  2. a humid environment
  3. an Arctic region
  4. a mountain range
Grade 8 Solar System
Which of the following is true concerning the process described in Accretion Theory?
  1. would have occurred within a nebula
  2. since even the smallest particles have gravitational and other attractive forces between them, nearby particles were attracted together to form clumps of particles
  3. these clumps (called planetesimals ) now behaved like larger masses, which allowed them to pull on other particles that were farther away
  4. given enough time, the masses of particles ultimately coalesced into the structures that make up our solar system
  5. All of the above are true of the Accretion Theory
Grade 8 Solar System
What does the mnemonic device, "My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas," help us remember?

Grade 8 Physics
Why is stability important in physical sciences?
  1. It helps in amplifying external forces acting upon a system
