input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: A magnet is an object that attracts certain materials such as iron. All magnets have north and south magnetic poles. The poles are regions where the magnet is strongest. Q: In a magnet, what are the regions called that are the strongest? A:
OPTIONS:
- positives
- plates

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Lymph capillaries collect fluid that leaks out from blood capillaries. The lymphatic vessels return the fluid to the cardiovascular system. Q: Lymph capillaries collect fluid that leaks out of what? A:

OPTIONS:
- bladder
- alveoli
- lymph nodes
- blood capillaries

A: blood capillaries

input: OPTIONS:
- sexual reproduction
- organic reproduction
- microscopic reproduction
- asexual reproduction Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Asexual reproduction is simpler than sexual reproduction. It involves just one parent. The offspring are genetically identical to each other and to the parent. All prokaryotes and some eukaryotes reproduce this way. There are several different methods of asexual reproduction. They include binary fission, fragmentation, and budding. Q: What kind of reproduction involves just one parent and produces offspring genetically identical to each other and to the parent? A:
A:
output: asexual reproduction

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The population growth rate is how fast a population is growing. The letter r stands for the growth rate. The growth rate equals the number of new members added to the population in a year for each 100 members already in the population. The growth rate includes new members added to the population and old members removed from the population. Births add new members to the population. Deaths remove members from the population. The formula for population growth rate is:. Q: What term that shows how fast a population is growing includes new members added to the population over a given period, as well as old members removed from the population? A:

OPTIONS:
- birth rate
- population density
- emigration
- growth rate

Answer: growth rate

Problem: OPTIONS:
- magnet
- alloy
- superconductor
- nonmetal
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: A nonmetal is an element that is generally a poor conductor of heat and electricity. Many properties of nonmetals are the opposite of those seen in metals. There is a wider variation in properties among the nonmetals than among the metals, as seen in Figure below . Nonmetals exist in all three states of matter at room temperature. The majority are gases, such as nitrogen and oxygen. Bromine is a liquid, and a few are solids, such as carbon and sulfur. In the solid state, nonmetals are brittle, meaning that they will shatter if struck with a hammer. The solids are not lustrous, and their melting points are generally much lower than those of metals. On the periodic table in the Figure above , the nonmetals are shaded green and appear to the right of the stair-step line. Q: An element that is generally a poor conductor of heat and electricity is known as a ______ A:
Answer: nonmetal

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Alpha decay occurs when an unstable nucleus emits an alpha particle and energy. The diagram in Figure below represents alpha decay. An alpha particle contains two protons and two neutrons, giving it a charge of +2. A helium nucleus has two protons and two neutrons, so an alpha particle is represented in nuclear equations by the symbol . The superscript 4 is the mass number (2 protons + 2 neutrons). The subscript 2 is the charge of the particle as well as the number of protons. Q: What occurs when an unstable nucleus emits an alpha particle and energy? A:

OPTIONS:
- radar decay
- nucleus decay
- alpha radition
- alpha decay

Answer:
alpha decay
