Answer the following question given this paragraph: Almost all fungi reproduce asexually by producing spores. A fungi spore is a haploid cell produced by mitosis from a haploid parent cell. It is genetically identical to the parent cell. Fungi spores can develop into new haploid individuals without being fertilized. Q: Most fungi reproduce asexually by producing what? Choices: - seeds - ions - toxins - spores A:
spores
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Have you ever gone swimming in the ocean? If you have, then you probably tasted the salts in the water. By mass, salts make up about 3.5% of ocean water. The table below shows the most common minerals in ocean water ( Table below ). The main components are sodium and chloride. Together they form the salt known as sodium chloride. You may know the compound as table salt or the mineral halite. Q: What are the two main minerals found in ocean water? Choices: - dioxide , chloride - quartz, carbon - carbon , chloride - sodium, chloride A:
sodium, chloride
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Soil is a mixture of eroded rock, minerals, partly decomposed organic matter, and other materials. It is essential for plant growth, so it is the foundation of terrestrial ecosystems. Soil is important for other reasons as well. For example, it removes toxins from water and breaks down wastes. Q: What is a mixture of eroded rock, minerals, partly decomposed organic matter, and other materials called? Choices: - loam - sand - sediment - soil A:
A: soil
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: All organisms have the ability to grow and reproduce. To grow and reproduce, organisms must get materials and energy from the environment. Plants obtain their energy from the sun through photosynthesis , whereas animals obtain their energy from other organisms. Either way, these plants and animals, as well as the bacteria and fungi, are constantly interacting with other species as well as the non-living parts of their ecosystem. Q: Plants obtain their energy from the sun through photosynthesis , what do animals obtain their energy from? Choices: - tissues - proteins - ultraviolet rays - organisms A:
Answer: organisms

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The vertebrate endoskeleton is made of bone and cartilage. Cartilage is a tough, flexible tissue that contains a protein called collagen. Bone is a hard tissue consisting of a collagen framework that is filled in with minerals such as calcium. Bone is less flexible than cartilage but stronger. A bony endoskeleton allows an animal to grow larger and heavier than a cartilage endoskeleton would. Bone also provides more protection for soft tissues and internal organs. Q: The vertebrate endoskeleton is made of bone and what tough, flexible tissue? Choices: - cuticle - collagen - synovial tissue - cartilage A:
**Answer**
cartilage

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Greenhouse gases include CO 2 , H 2 O, methane, O 3 , nitrous oxides (NO and NO 2 ), and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). All are a normal part of the atmosphere except CFCs. The table below shows how each greenhouse gas naturally enters the atmosphere ( Table below ). Q: Co 2 , h 2 o, methane, o 3 , nitrous oxides (no and no 2 ), and chlorofluorocarbons (cfcs) are known as what type of gases? Choices: - chemical gases - hydrogen gases - carbonate gases - greenhouse gases A:
(A).
greenhouse gases
