Answer the following question given this paragraph: Nearsightedness, or myopia, is the condition in which nearby objects are seen clearly, but distant objects appear blurry. The Figure below shows how it occurs. The eyeball is longer (from front to back) than normal. This causes images to be focused in front of the retina instead of on the retina. Myopia can be corrected with concave lenses. The lenses focus images farther back in the eye, so they fall on the retina instead of in front of it. Q: What is another term for nearsightedness? Choices: - hypoxia - astigmatism - anemia - myopia A:
myopia
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Cell division Mitosis M Cell growth stops at this stage. Mitosis divides the nucleus into two nuclei, followed by cytokinesis which divides the cytoplasm. Two genetically identical daughter cells result. Q: What is divided during cytokinesis? Choices: - chromosomes - nucleus - cytoskeleton - cytoplasm A:
cytoplasm
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The prostate gland secretes a fluid that mixes with sperm to help form semen. Semen is a whitish liquid that contains sperm. It passes through the urethra and out of the body. Q: What gland secretes a fluid that mixes with sperm to help form semen? Choices: - testicle - thymus - thyroid - prostate gland A:
A: prostate gland
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: One of the simplest ways of detecting radioactivity is by using a piece of photographic film embedded in a badge or a pen. On a regular basis, the film is developed and checked for exposure. Comparing the exposure level of the film with a set of standard exposures indicates the amount of radiation a person was exposed to. Another means of detecting radioactivity is an electrical device called a Geiger counter (Figure 15.2 "Detecting Radioactivity"). It contains a gas-filled chamber with a thin membrane on one end that allows radiation emitted from radioactive nuclei to enter the chamber and knock electrons off atoms of gas (usually argon). The presence of electrons and positively charged ions causes a small current, which is detected by the Geiger counter and converted to a signal on a meter or, commonly, an audio circuit to produce an audible "click. Q: A geiger counter is used for detecting what? Choices: - mutation - pressure - convection - radiation A:
Answer: radiation
