Question: Background Paragraph: Storing large volumes of data – When storing XML to either file or database, the volume of data a system produces can often exceed reasonable limits, with a number of detriments: the access times go up as more data is read, CPU load goes up as XML data takes more power to process, and storage costs go up. By storing XML data in Fast Infoset format, data volume may be reduced by as much as 80 percent. 
Story: Antwan had a busy day storing XML. In the morning, he filled up a hard drive with XML. In the afternoon, he filled up a few hard drives with XML. At night, he filled up many hard drives with XML. 
Question: What time did the access times go up the least: morning or night?

Answer: morning.


Question: Background Paragraph: The epidermis also contains melanocytes , which are cells that produce melanin. Melanin is the brownish pigment that gives skin much of its color. Everyone has about the same number of melanocytes, but the melanocytes of people with darker skin produce more melanin. The amount of melanin produced is determined by heredity and exposure to UV light, which increases melanin output. Exposure to UV light also stimulates the skin to produce vitamin D . Because melanin blocks UV light from penetrating the skin, people with darker skin may be at greater risk of vitamin D deficiency. 
Story: Matt and his brother Jesse are twins. They look almost identical. If it weren't for the fact that Jesse has a slightly darker skin complexion you wouldn't be able to tell them apart. In fact one year Matt was out in the sun for a long time and picked up a bit of a tan so they actually did look exactly alike. 
Question: Will an increase in the amount of melanin produced make a person skin darker or lighter?

Answer: darker.


Question: Background Paragraph: Plants called epiphytes grow on other plants. They obtain moisture from the air and make food by photosynthesis. Most epiphytes are ferns or orchids that live in tropical or temperate rainforests (see Figure below ). Host trees provide support, allowing epiphyte plants to obtain air and sunlight high above the forest floor. Being elevated above the ground lets epiphytes get out of the shadows on the forest floor so they can get enough sunlight for photosynthesis. Being elevated may also reduce the risk of being eaten by herbivores and increase the chance of pollination by wind. 
Story: Emily's father is very sick, After doing some research she finds that a rare medicinal herb can help her father and is located in a nearby forest. The only information she is able to uncover about the herb other than it's effect is that it is an epiphyte. She decides to spend a day looking for the herb. 
Question: Will Emilys' chances of finding the herb increase or decrease if she searches the forest floor for it?

Answer:
decrease.
