In$figure$2,$the$percent$PPI$at$the$end$of$the$study,$i.e.$in$2004,$in$the$present+day$was$33%$and$the$

Therefore,$the$elevated$CO2$had$a$higher$percent$of$PPI$at$the$end$of$the$study$by$a$difference$of$7%.$

In$the$passage,$the$author$mentions$that$the$“PPIs$were$grown$in$identical$outdoor$plots$under$identical$
conditions$except$for$the$atmospheric$CO2$concentration”.$

Therefore,$all$the$factors$except$the$atmospheric$CO2$concentration$in$each$plot$were$the$same.$

10) H)$

All$the$points$on$the$570ppm$graph$were$higher$than$the$points$on$the$370$ppm$graph.$Therefore,$the$
dry$biomass$per$plant$grown$in$a$CO2$concentration$of$370$ppm$was$always$less$than$the$dry$biomass$
per$plant$grown$in$a$CO2$concentration$of$570$ppm.$

11) D)$

According$to$the$graph$in$figure$2,$40%$of$the$PIPs$grown$in$the$plot$survived.$Which$means$that$100+40$

12) F)$

In$figure$3,$the$bar$graph$shows$that$the$U:S$ratio$for$the$370$ppm$plot$was$lower$than$the$U:S$ratio$for$
the$570$ppm$plot.$Which$means$that$the$U$urushiols$was$lower$in$the$370$ppm$plot$than$the$570$ppm$
plot.$Therefore,$the$S$urushiols$were$higher$in$the$370$ppm$plot.$

In$the$circle$graphs,$the$370$ppm$CO2$plot$(present$day$plot),$10%$was$S$urushiols$per$plant$and$90%$

From$figure$1,$O3$concentration$and$I3$concentration$are$directly$proportional.$Which$means$that$as$the$
O3$concentration$is$increasing$the$I3$concentration$is$also$increasing.$Therefore,$the$Site$with$the$lowest$
I3$concentration$at$any$particular$time$will$have$the$lowest$O3$concentration.$

Thus,$at$2:30$pm$site$B$has$an$O3$concentration$of$85$ppb.$

At$2:30$pm$site$C$has$an$O3$concentration$of$30$ppb.$

At$4:00$pm$site$B$has$an$O3$concentration$of$87$ppb$approximately.$

At$4:00$pm$site$C$has$an$O3$concentration$of$58$ppb$approximately.$

Therefore,$site$C$has$the$lowest$O3$concentration$at$2:30$pm.$

14) H)$

The$lowest$I3$concentration$will$have$the$lowest$O3$concentration$(from$the$previous$question).$

Therefore,$at$2:00$pm,$Site$D$has$the$lowest$I3$concentration,$followed$by$Site$C,$then$site$A$and$finally$
site$B.$

Thus,$the$order$of$the$samples$from$the$lowest$O3$concentration$will$be$the$same$as$the$order$of$the$
sample$from$the$lowest$I3$concentration.$

15) B)$

Since,$the$highest$I3$concentrations$will$result$in$the$highest$O3$concentrations,$in$figure$3,$site$B$has$a$
higher$level$of$I3$concentration$throughout.$Therefore,$site$B$has$higher$levels$of$O3$concentrations$on$
average.$

16) G)$

From$figure$3,$the$I3$concentration$at$site$B$at$5:00$pm$was$2.$

In$figure$1,$when$the$I3$concentration$is$2,$the$O3$concentration$is$80bbp.$

The$I3$concentration$at$site$C$at$2:00$pm$was$1.$

When$the$I3$concentration$is$1,$the$O3$concentration$is$40bbp.$

Thus,$80$is$two$times$greater$than$40.$

17) C)$

The$I3$concentration$at$A$at$4:00pm$and$5:30pm$was$1.50$and$2.40$respectively.$

Thus,$the$O3$concentrations$were$60ppb$and$95$ppb$respectively.$
250

Therefore,$the$I3$concentration$at$5:30$was$higher$at$site$A,$and$higher$the$I3$concentration,$higher$the$
O3$concentration.$

As$the$wavelength$of$light$increases,$the$energy$of$a$photon$decreases.$Therefore,$the$shortest$
wavelength$of$light$will$produce$the$greatest$energy.$400$is$the$shortest$wavelength,$therefore,$trial$5$

Scientist$1$states$that$“frequency$of$eruptions$at$an$HSV$typically$increases$over$time”.$This$means$that$
