Answer the following question given this paragraph: Runner's Knee Runner's knee, also known as patellofemoral syndrome, is the most common overuse injury among runners. It is most frequent in adolescents and young adults, and is more common in females. It often results from excessive running, particularly downhill, but may also occur in athletes who do a lot of knee bending, such as jumpers, skiers, cyclists, weight lifters, and soccer players. It is felt as a dull, aching pain around the front of the knee and deep to the patella. The pain may be felt when walking or running, going up or down stairs, kneeling or squatting, or after sitting with the knee bent for an extended period. Patellofemoral syndrome may be initiated by a variety of causes, including individual variations in the shape and movement of the patella, a direct blow to the patella, or flat feet or improper shoes that cause excessive turning in or out of the feet or leg. These factors may cause in an imbalance in the muscle pull that acts on the patella, resulting in an abnormal tracking of the patella that allows it to deviate too far toward the lateral side of the patellar surface on the distal femur. Because the hips are wider than the knee region, the femur has a diagonal orientation within the thigh, in contrast to the vertically oriented tibia of the leg (Figure 8.17). The Q-angle is a measure of how far the femur is angled laterally away from vertical. The Q-angle is normally 1015 degrees, with females typically having a larger Q-angle due to their wider pelvis. During extension of the knee, the quadriceps femoris muscle pulls the patella both superiorly and laterally, with the lateral pull greater in women due to their large Q-angle. This makes women more vulnerable to developing patellofemoral syndrome than men. Normally, the large lip on the lateral side of the patellar surface of the femur compensates for the lateral pull on the patella, and thus helps to maintain its proper tracking. However, if the pull produced by the medial and lateral sides of the quadriceps femoris muscle is... Q: What body joint incurs the most common overuse injury among runners and other athletes? Choices: - arm - heel - ankle - knee A:
knee

Answer the following question given this paragraph: All amphibians have digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems. All three systems share a body cavity called the cloaca. Wastes enter the cloaca from the digestive and excretory systems, and gametes enter the cloaca from the reproductive system. An opening in the cloaca allows the wastes and gametes to leave the body. Q: The digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems of amphibians share a body cavity called what? Choices: - stoma - anus - urethra - cloaca A:
(Answer)
cloaca
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Cell division is relatively simple in prokaryotic cells. The two cells divide by binary fission. Green and orange lines indicate old and newly-generated bacterial cell walls, respectively. Eventually the parent cell will pinch apart to form two identical daughter cells. Left, growth at the center of bacterial body, such as in Bacillus subtilis and E. coli . Right, apical growth from the ends of the bacterial body, such as in Corynebacterium diphtheriae . Q: Eventually the parent cell will pinch apart to form two identical types of what cells? Choices: - brother cells - father cells - son cells - daughter cells A:
Ans: daughter cells

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Chemical weathering is different than mechanical weathering. The minerals in the rock change their chemical makeup. They become a different type of mineral or even a different type of rock. Chemical weathering works through chemical reactions that change the rock. Q: What works through chemical reactions that change the rock? Choices: - gradual weathering - chemical breakdown - rock weathering - chemical weathering A:
(A).
chemical weathering
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: What is a measure of how hot or cold the air is? Choices: - precipitation - variation - relativity - temperature A:

Ans:temperature
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure below shows a diagram of Mercury's interior. Mercury is one of the densest planets. Scientists think that the interior contains a large core made mostly of melted iron. Mercury's core takes up about 42% of the planet's volume. Mercury's highly cratered surface is evidence that Mercury is not geologically active. Q: What do scientist's believe mercury's core is mostly made of? Choices: - water - quicksilver - helium gas - melted iron A:
melted iron
