rodrigo is using the design process to make a device that will cool a drink without ice or electricity. his first prototype was simply an airtight, watertight pouch containing 40 g of ammonium chloride (nh4cl). he added 100 ml of water to the ammonium chloride, sealed the pouch tightly, and then wrapped the pouch around a small bottle of water. he tested his prototype by measuring the temperature of the bottle of water over time.

next, rodrigo performed the same test with different amounts and different concentrations of the ammonium chloride solution. for each set of measurements, he found the lowest temperature reached by the bottle of water and calculated the total temperature change. the table below summarizes his results.

maximum cooling achieved

trial 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

grams of nh4cl 30 40 50 50 60 70 80

amount (ml) of
water added 100 100 100 150 150 200 200

greatest
temperature
change (–°c) 3.6 4.3 4.3 4.8 5.2 5.6 5.8


finally, rodrigo held the amount and concentration of the solution constant while trying different amounts of insulation.

maximum cooling achieved

trial 8 9 10 11

insulation used: none towel blanket polystyrene-foam

greatest
temperature
change (–°c) 5.8 8.8 9.3 9.6


rodrigo wants to find more ways to improve his latest design. which of the following should he try?
(choose all that apply)

a - a more concentrated solution
b - a less concentrated solution
c - better insulation
d - less insulation
e - a greater amount of solution
f - a lesser amount of solution

To answer this question, researchers studied populations of the dusky salamander (desmognathus ochrophaeus) living on different mountain ranges in the southern appalachian mountains. the researchers tested the reproductive isolation of pairs of salamander populations by leaving one male and one female together and later checking the females for the presence of sperm. four mating combinations were tested for each pair of populations (a and b)—two within the same population (female a with male a and female b with male b) and two between populations (female a with male b and female b with male a). the proportion of successful matings for each mating combination was measured. for example, when all the matings of a particular combination were successful, the researchers gave it a value of 1; when none of the matings were successful, they gave it a value of 0. then the researchers calculated an index of reproductive isolation that ranged from 0 (no isolation) to 2 (full isolation). the reproductive isolation value for two populations is the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type within populations (aa + bb) minus the sum of the proportion of successful matings of each type between populations (ab + ba). the table provides data for the geographic distances and reproductive isolation values for 27 pairs of dusky salamander populations.
