Answer the following question given this paragraph: Female mammals have mammary glands . The glands produce milk after the birth of offspring. Milk is a nutritious fluid. It contains disease-fighting molecules as well as all the nutrients a baby mammal needs. Producing milk for an offspring is called lactation . Q: What is the name of the glands that produce milk in female mammals ? Choices: - recombinant glands - fetal glands - sebaceous glands - mammary glands A:
mammary glands
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Peripheral membrane proteins are proteins that are only temporarily associated with the membrane. They can be easily removed, which allows them to be involved in cell signaling. Peripheral proteins can also be attached to integral membrane proteins, or they can stick into a small portion of the lipid bilayer by themselves. Peripheral membrane proteins are often associated with ion channels and transmembrane receptors. Most peripheral membrane proteins are hydrophilic. Q: What type of proteins are only temporarily associated with the membrane? Choices: - visual membrane proteins - sensitive rod proteins - peripheral oxidation proteins - peripheral membrane proteins A:
peripheral membrane proteins
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Uranus is a lot like Jupiter and Saturn. The planet is composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. There is a thick layer of gas on the outside. Further on the inside is liquid. But Uranus has a higher percentage of icy materials than Jupiter and Saturn. These materials include water, ammonia, and methane. Uranus is also different because of its blue-green color. Clouds of methane filter out red light. This leaves a blue-green color. The atmosphere of Uranus has bands of clouds. These clouds are hard to see in normal light. The result is that the planet looks like a plain blue ball. Q: What planet is a blue green color? Choices: - Mars - sirius - Mercury - uranus A:
A: uranus
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: What is the term for liquid water falling from the sky? Choices: - wind - fire - mud - rain A:
Answer: rain

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The high specific heat of liquid water has important implications for life on Earth. A given mass of water releases more than five times as much heat for a 1C temperature change as does the same mass of limestone or granite. Consequently, coastal regions of our planet tend to have less variable climates than regions in the center of a continent. After absorbing large amounts of thermal energy from the sun in summer, the water slowly releases the energy during the winter, thus keeping coastal areas warmer than otherwise would be expected (Figure 5.13 "The High Specific Heat of Liquid Water Has Major Effects on Climate"). Water's capacity to absorb large amounts of energy without undergoing a large increase in temperature also explains why swimming pools and waterbeds are usually heated. Heat must be applied to raise the temperature of the water to a comfortable level for swimming or sleeping and to maintain that level as heat is exchanged with the surroundings. Moreover, because the human body is about 70% water by mass, a great deal of energy is required to change its temperature by even 1C. Consequently, the mechanism for maintaining our body temperature at about 37C does not have to be as finely tuned as would be necessary if our bodies were primarily composed of a substance with a lower specific heat. Figure 5.13 The High Specific Heat of Liquid Water Has Major Effects on Climate. Q: Because the human body is about 70% water by mass, and liquid water has high specific heat, a great deal of what is required to change its temperature? Choices: - power - work - digestion - energy A:
**Answer**
energy
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Larger amounts of sulfur also come from hydrogen sulfide recovered during the purification of natural gas. Sulfur exists in several allotropic forms. The stable form at room temperature contains eight-membered rings, and so the true formula is S8. However, chemists commonly use S to simplify the coefficients in chemical equations; we will follow this practice in this book. Q: What does the stable form of sulfur at room temperature contain? Choices: - six - membered rings - four - membered rings - electron shell - eight-membered rings A:
A: eight-membered rings
