Q: How do fungus-like protists such as slime molds reproduce? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Fungus-like protists are molds. They are absorptive feeders, found on decaying organic matter. They resemble fungi and reproduce with spores as fungi do. Examples of fungus-like protists include slime molds and water molds. Choices: - photosynthesis - sexually - asexually - with spores A:
with spores

Q: What kinds of rocks can change and become new types of rocks? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Any type of rock can change and become a new type of rock. Magma can cool and crystallize. Existing rocks can be weathered and eroded to form sediments. Rock can change by heat or pressure deep in Earth's crust. There are three main processes that can change rock:. Choices: - igneous rocks - metamorphic rocks - sedimentary rocks - any types of rocks A:
any types of rocks

Q: Q: Surface tension forces between moleculse cause the surface of liquid to contract to what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Surface Tension Cohesive forces between molecules cause the surface of a liquid to contract to the smallest possible surface area. This general effect is called surface tension. Molecules on the surface are pulled inward by cohesive forces, reducing the surface area. Molecules inside the liquid experience zero net force, since they have neighbors on all sides. Surface Tension Cohesive forces between molecules cause the surface of a liquid to contract to the smallest possible surface area. This general effect is called surface tension. Making Connections: Surface Tension Forces between atoms and molecules underlie the macroscopic effect called surface tension. These attractive forces pull the molecules closer together and tend to minimize the surface area. This is another example of a submicroscopic explanation for a macroscopic phenomenon. The model of a liquid surface acting like a stretched elastic sheet can effectively explain surface tension effects. For example, some insects can walk on water (as opposed to floating in it) as we would walk on a trampolinethey dent the surface as shown in Figure 11.28(a). Figure 11.28(b) shows another example, where a needle rests on a water surface. The iron needle cannot, and does not, float, because its density is greater than that of water. Rather, its weight is supported by forces in the stretched surface that try to make the surface smaller or flatter. If the needle were placed point down on the surface, its weight acting on a smaller area would break the surface, and it would sink. Choices: - typically surface area - Weak Surface area - strongest surface area - smallest surface area A:
A: smallest surface area

Question: Q: Iridescent green beetles, known as jewel beetles, change color because of the light-reflecting properties of the cells that make up this? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Each section contains a liquid crystal sample with a different liquid crystalline range. The section whose liquid crystalline range corresponds to the temperature of the body becomes translucent (here shown in green), indicating the temperature. We also see the effect of liquid crystals in nature. Iridescent green beetles, known as jewel beetles, change color because of the light-reflecting properties of the cells that make up their external skeletons, not because of light absorption from their pigment. The cells form helices with a structure like those found in cholesteric liquid crystals. When the pitch of the helix is close to the wavelength of visible light, the cells reflect light with wavelengths that lead to brilliant metallic colors. Because a color change occurs depending on a person's angle of view, researchers in New Zealand are studying the beetles to develop a thin material that can be used as a currency security measure. The automobile industry is also interested in exploring such materials for use in paints that would change color at different viewing angles. With only molecular structure as a guide, one cannot precisely predict which of the various liquid crystalline phases a given compound will actually form. One can, however, identify molecules containing the kinds of structural features that tend to result in liquid crystalline behavior, as demonstrated in Example 11. Choices: - their hairs - their wings - their scales - their external skeleton A:
Answer: their external skeleton

*Question*
Q: Which reaction between alkyl halides and ammonia makes alkylamines? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: molecular masses. Primary amines tend to have boiling points intermediate between those of the corresponding alcohol and alkane. Moreover, secondary and tertiary amines have lower boiling points than primary amines of comparable molecular mass. Tertiary amines form cations analogous to the ammonium ion (NH 4+), in which all four H atoms are replaced by alkyl groups. Such substances, calledquaternary ammonium salts, can be chiral if all four substituents are different. (Amines with three different substituents are also chiral because the lone pair of electrons represents a fourth substituent. ) Alkylamines can be prepared by nucleophilic substitution reactions of alkyl halides with ammonia or other amines: Equation 24.12. Choices: - nitrogen catabolism - conductive substitution reactions - nucleophobic reactions - nucleophilic substitution reactions A:
**Answer**
nucleophilic substitution reactions

Q: The passing of traits from parents to offspring is done through what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Genetics is the study of inheritance. Inheritance is the passing of traits from parents to offspring. How are these traits "passed"? Through DNA, which is the genetic material of all organisms. This concept will focus on genetics, inheritance, and DNA. Choices: - sperm - egg - blood - dna A:
dna
