USING SCIENCE SKILLS
A student placed a disk of filter paper in each of the following solutions: disinfectant 1, disinfectant 2,
disinfectant 3, and distilled water. While the four disks were soaking in their respective solutions, she
streaked a sterile nutrient agar dish with a culture of E. coli bacteria. Then, she placed each disk carefully onto
the nutrient agar dish, placed the lid on the dish, taped it shut, and incubated the dish at 37°C for several days.
Figure 19-4 shows how the nutrient agar dish looked on Day 1 and Day 4.
Figure 19-4
46. Designing Experiments Based on Figure 19-4, what is the student probably trying to test?
a. the solution that each disk is soaked in
b. the type of Petri dishes
c. the effectiveness of different disinfectants
d. not enough information
47. Controlling Variables What is the control in the experiment shown in Figure 19-4?
a. The disk soaked in disinfectant 1 is the control.
b. The disk soaked in disinfectant 2 is the control.
c. The disk soaked in disinfectant 3 is the control.
d. The disk soaked in distilled water is the control.
48. Drawing Conclusions How can the student measure the effectiveness of each disinfectant shown in
Figure 19-4?
a. Smell the contents of the Petri dish. If there is no smell, the disinfectant worked to kill the bacteria.
b. The student can measure the width of the area around each disk where bacteria have not grown to
determine the effectiveness of the solution in which each disk was soaked.
c. Measure the amount of water vapor produced. The dish that has more water vapor has more bacteria so the
disinfectant did not work to kill the bacteria.
d. not enough information
49. Inferring Look at the dishes in Figure 19-4. Which disinfectant was the most effective at controlling the
growth of E. coli?
a. Disinfectant 1
b. Disinfectant 2
c. Disinfectant 3
d. distilled water
50. Drawing Conclusions Look at the results of the experiment shown in Figure 19-4. Why do you think the
different disinfectants are not equally effective against the E. coli bacteria?
a. Disinfectants act differently to combat bacterial growth.
b. Some disinfectants are more effective at controlling one species of bacteria than another.
c. Bacteria differ greatly from species to species.
d. all of the above
USING SCIENCE SKILLS
Composting is the process of breaking down organic materials under controlled conditions. A student set up
three different compost bins using the setup shown in Figure 19-5. Into each compost bin, he added an
identical combination of wood shavings, shredded paper, nitrogen, and bacteria. He mixed the materials in
each bin and adjusted the insulation around the bins to maintain the daily target temperatures. He then
monitored the temperature, moisture, and amount of decomposition of the compost in each bin over an eightweek period. Some of his data are shown in the graph.
Figure 19-5
51. Designing Experiments Based on Figure 19-5, what is the student probably trying to test?
a. type of wood chips
b. the effect of temperature
c. the type of gas produced
d. not enough information
52. Controlling Variables According to Figure 19-5, which compost bin is the control?
a. Compost bin A
b. Compost bin B
c. Compost bin C
d. cannot tell
53. Inferring Look at the graph in Figure 19-5. How do you account for the 50ºC temperature in compost bin A?
a. The 50°C temperature in bin A is generated by the bacteria and other decomposers in the compost.
b. The 50°C temperature in bin A is generated by the type of wood chips used.
c. The 50°C temperature in bin A is generated by the type of air being pumped in by the aerator.
c. not enough information
54. Drawing Conclusions At the end of eight weeks, the student found that the materials in which bin had
undergone the most decomposition?
a. Bin A
b. Bin B
c. Bin C
d. all decomposed at the same rate
55. Predicting According to Figure 19-5, suppose a fourth compost bin were added to the experiment. This bin
was kept above 80°C. Predict how the decomposition in this bin would compare with that in bins A, B, and C.
a. The organic materials will decompose even more quickly than those in bin A.
b. However, it is more likely that these materials will break down very little, if at all, because high
temperatures kill bacteria.
c. both (a) and (b)
d. none of the above
