Q: What type of pollution is generated by power plants and factories that can directly raise the temperature of water? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Thermal pollution raises the temperature of water. It is commonly caused by power plants and factories. The change in temperature can kill fish and other water organisms. Choices: - atmospheric pollution - Space Pollution - variable pollution - thermal pollution A:
thermal pollution

Choices: - vessels, tubes, veins - veins, capillaries, vessels - vessels, arteries, capillaries - arteries,capillaries, veins A:
arteries,capillaries, veins

Q: Q: Which primate group generally lives alone? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Yes! This is the Hubbard Glacier in Alaska. As the glacier meets the relatively warm seawater, it calves. Pieces of the glacier break off and fall into the water. These icebergs may be as large as a ten-story building. Choices: - chimpanzee - gorilla - human - orangutan A:
A: orangutan

Q: At any specific time, the rate at which a reaction is proceeding is known as its what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: To obtain the tabulated results for this decomposition, the concentration of hydrogen peroxide was measured every 6 hours over the course of a day at a constant temperature of 40 C. Reaction rates were computed for each time interval by dividing the change in concentration by the corresponding time increment, as shown here for the first 6-hour period: [H 2 O 2] (0.500 mol/L 1.000 mol/L) = = 0.0833 mol L 1 h 1 t (6.00 h 0.00 h) Notice that the reaction rates vary with time, decreasing as the reaction proceeds. Results for the last 6-hour period yield a reaction rate of: [H 2 O 2] (0.0625 mol/L 0.125 mol/L) = = 0.0104 mol L 1 h 1 t (24.00 h 18.00 h) This behavior indicates the reaction continually slows with time. Using the concentrations at the beginning and end of a time period over which the reaction rate is changing results in the calculation of an average rate for the reaction over this time interval. At any specific time, the rate at which a reaction is proceeding is known as its instantaneous rate. The instantaneous rate of a reaction at "time zero," when the reaction commences, is its initial rate. Consider the analogy of a car slowing down as it approaches a stop sign. The vehicle's initial rateanalogous to the beginning of a chemical reactionwould be the speedometer reading at the moment the driver begins pressing the brakes (t0). A few moments later, the instantaneous rate at a specific momentcall it t1would be somewhat slower, as indicated by the speedometer reading at that point in time. As time passes, the instantaneous rate will continue to fall until it reaches zero, when the car (or reaction) stops. Unlike instantaneous speed, the car's average speed is not indicated by the speedometer; but it can be calculated as the ratio of the distance traveled to the time required to bring the vehicle to a complete stop (t). Like the decelerating car, the average rate of a chemical reaction will fall somewhere between its initial and final rates. The instantaneous rate of a... Choices: - spontaneous rate - immediate rate - emitted rate - instantaneous rate A:
**Answer**
instantaneous rate

Q: Chromosomal alterations are mutations that change what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Chromosomal alterations are mutations that change chromosome structure. They occur when a section of a chromosome breaks off and rejoins incorrectly or does not rejoin at all. Possible ways these mutations can occur are illustrated in Figure below . Go to this link for a video about chromosomal alterations: http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=OrXRSqa_3lU (2:18). Choices: - Skeleton Structure - detected structure - discovery structure - chromosome structure A:
**Answer**
chromosome structure
