A scientist testing the affects of a
chemical on apple yield sprays an orchard
with the chemical. A second orchard does
not receive the chemical. In the fall, the
number of apples harvested from each
forest is counted. Which of the following
is the independent variable in the
experiment?
A. The first orchard
B. The second orchard
C. The number of apples
D. The chemical
The orchard sprayed with the chemical
yields an average of 60 apples per tree,

40 apples per tree. Based on the data,
the scientist would:
a. report his data
b. test the chemical on other plants
c. determine that the chemical increases apple
yield

Which of the following is the best explanation for the
presence of both chloroplasts and mitochondria in
plant cells?
a. In the light, plants make their own glucose, but in the
dark, photosynthesis stops and mitochondria make glucose.
