Answer the following question given this paragraph: The liver is an organ of both digestion and excretion. It produces a fluid called bile , which is secreted into the duodenum. Some bile also goes to the gall bladder , a sac-like organ that stores and concentrates bile and then secretes it into the small intestine. In the duodenum, bile breaks up large globules of lipids into smaller globules that are easier for enzymes to break down. Bile also reduces the acidity of food entering from the highly acidic stomach. This is important because digestive enzymes that work in the duodenum need a neutral environment. The pancreas contributes to the neutral environment by secreting bicarbonate, a basic substance that neutralizes acid. Q: What organ creates bile? Choices: - kidney - pancreas - heart - liver A:
liver

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Circadian rhythms are regular changes in biology or behavior that occur in a 24-hour cycle. In humans, for example, blood pressure and body temperature change in a regular way throughout each 24-hour day. Animals may eat and drink at certain times of day as well. Humans have daily cycles of behavior, too. Most people start to get sleepy after dark and have a hard time sleeping when it is light outside. In many species, including humans, circadian rhythms are controlled by a tiny structure called the biological clock . This structure is located in a gland at the base of the brain. The biological clock sends signals to the body. The signals cause regular changes in behavior and body processes. The amount of light entering the eyes helps control the biological clock. The clock causes changes that repeat every 24 hours. Q: What do you call the regular changes in biology or behavior that occur in a 24-hour cycle? Choices: - cognitive rhythms - variable rhythms - sleep rhythms - circadian rhythms A:
(Answer)
circadian rhythms
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The pleura that surrounds the lungs consists of two layers, the ________. visceral and parietal pleurae. mediastinum and parietal pleurae. visceral and mediastinum pleurae. none of the above 14.

A decrease in volume leads to a(n) ________ pressure. Q: The pleura that surrounds the lungs consists of how many layers? Choices: - one - four - three - two A:

Answer the following question given this paragraph: A resource is renewable if it is remade by natural processes at the same rate that humans use it up. Sunlight and wind are renewable resources because they will not be used up ( Figure below ). The rising and falling of ocean tides is another example of a resource in unlimited supply. A sustainable resource is a resource that is used in a way that meets the needs of the present without keeping future generations from meeting their needs. People can sustainably harvest wood, cork, and bamboo. Farmers can also grow crops sustainably by not planting the same crop in their soil year after year. Planting the same crop each year can remove nutrients from the soil. This means that wood, cork, bamboo, and crops can be sustainable resources. Q: What is the term for a resource that is used in a way that meets the needs of the present without keeping future generations from meeting their needs? Choices: - tolerable - innovative - structural - sustainable A:
(A).
sustainable
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: 22.11 Algae Algae are much simpler than protozoa. They are aquatic and contain chlorophyll. Algae can exist as a single cell or as giant seaweeds 60 m in length. Formerly, algae were classified as plants but this was incorrect as algae lack parts of true plants: leaves, stems, roots, xylem, and phloem. Since algae belong in the kingdom Protista, algae is a broad term used to denote all aquatic eukaryotes which photosynthesise; algae can differ in size and shape as well. There are six phyla of algae:chlorophytes (green algae), phaeophytes (brown algae), rhodophytes (red algae), chrysophytes (diatoms), pyrrophytes (dinoflagellates), and euglenophytes (euglenoids). Q: Algae are much simpler than protozoa. they are aquatic and contain this? Choices: - testes - sporozoa - cloning factor - chlorophyll A:

Ans:chlorophyll
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Heat below Earth's surfacecalled geothermal energy can be used to produce electricity. A power plant pumps water underground where it is heated. Then it pumps the water back to the plant and uses its thermal energy to generate electricity. On a small scale, geothermal energy can be used to heat homes. Installing a geothermal system can be very costly, however, because of the need to drill through underground rocks. Q: What do you call the heat below earth's surface that can be used to produce electricity? Choices: - inert energy - renewable energy - natural energy - geothermal energy A:

Ans:
geothermal energy
