• How To Play
• When you play the game, click on the TEXT DOLLAR
  AMOUNT that the contestant asks for, not the box.

  the correct question. Click on the Score box so
  that you can return to the main game board.
• Enter the score on the contestants black box.
• If you are running out of time you can proceed to
  the FINAL Jeopardy button on the main game board
  to finish.
• This will be where the contestants wager their
  money on the outcome of the last question.
• It is a good idea to allow your kids to watch the
  Real Jeopardy before playing for the first time.
• DO NOT save the game. This will overwrite the
  program with the scores and data you enter.
  After you create the answers and questions for
  the first time, You might save it as a different

Molly grew four bean plants in pots with the same
soil and provided each with an equal amount of
light. She gave each plant different amounts of
the reactants involved in photosynthesis. She
then measured the amount of gas produced by each
plant and their increase in height over a few
weeks. An independent variable in Mollys
experiment is the amount of a. water given to
each plant. b. height gained by each plant. c.
oxygen produced by each plant. d. carbon dioxide
produced by each plant.
