E) producers. 5) You are sorting cards with pictures of organisms and their descriptions into groups. You would place the card with an osprey and the description "organisms that obtain energy by consuming other organisms" with cards for other A) autotro phs. B) plants. C) heterotrophs. D) producers. E) photosynthesizers. 2 6) If you observed a newly discovered 'thing' and tried to decide if it might be alive, what would be the weakest distinction for life? A) homeostasis B) movement C) structural organization D) evolution E) energy use 7) The four kingdoms included in the domain Eukarya are A) Bacteria, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. B) Bacteria, Protista, Plantae, and Animalia. C) Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. D) Archaea, Bacteria, Plantae, and Animalia.

B) It can be proven false. C) It is a tentative explanation. D) It is based on previous knowledge.

B) environmental conditions holding constant through time. C) cells having enough water to survive. D) plants and animals needing energy sources. E) an organism maintaining nearly constant internal conditions. 19) What statement deals with an aspect of experimentation but with the incorrect explanation?

C) A control group is an untreated group and provides a basis for comparison.
