Given the fact that:  As the nail grows, more cells are added at the nail bed.  Answer the question:   If a nail bed's cells are decreasing or increasing , the nail is shrinking?
decreasing


Given the fact that:  The farther you stretch the band, the greater the resistance is.  Answer the question:   When we stretch a rubber band to a larger size it gets tough meaning it has more resistance or less resistance?
more resistance


Q: Given the fact that:  As humidity increases, the water potential gradient across the inside and outside the leaf become more equal, and so the rate of transpiration decreases.  Answer the question:   Joe noticed that the humidity inside the greenhouse was getting very low, so he turned the sprinklers on to make it more humid. Thus, when the water potential gradient across the inside and outside of the leaf becomes equal, the rate of transpiration will increase or decrease.?
A: increase


Question: Given the fact that:  Many of the worlds people live with water scarcity, and that percentage will increase as populations increase and climate changes.  Answer the question:   John's town used to have little water, back when there were several thousand people. However, now that the town holds only a few hundred people, the water availability is scarce or plentiful?
Answer: plentiful

Given the fact that:  A wave caused by a disturbance with more energy has greater amplitude.  Answer the question:   Kelly drops a 5kg weight and a 10kg weight in two similarly sized buckets. If this creates a wave, the wave with less amplitude was caused by the 5kg or 10kg?
**Answer**
5kg
