(b) The student predicts that the volume of water that evaporates from each beaker
will be the same because each beaker is the same size and shape.
The table shows the student’s results.

36 Water fleas are small microscopic animals.
The diagram shows a water flea and the position of its heart.

heart

A student investigates the effect of different types of water on the number of

heart beats per minute of the water flea.
The student uses river water, lake water, rainwater and stream water.
The temperature of each type of water is kept the same.
The student measures the heart rate of the water flea by counting the number of
heart beats per minute.
The student’s investigation involves the following four steps.
They are not in the correct order.
Step A: place the water flea in the same volume of each type of water being
tested
Step B: measure the number of heart beats of the water flea per minute in each
type of water
Step C: measure the number of heart beats per minute of the water flea in its
normal environment
Step D: return the water flea to its normal environment
(a) Write the letters A, B and C in the boxes to show the correct order of the steps in
the investigation.
Step D has already been done for you.
