Q: If a gas in a closed area experiences increases in pressure and decreases in temperatures, what other attribute of the gas will be affected? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Both the increase in pressure and the decrease in temperature cause the volume of the gas sample to decrease. Since both changes are relatively small, the volume does not decrease dramatically. Choices: - gravity - velocity - temperature - volume A:
volume

Q: Which artery enters the cranium through the carotid canal in the temporal bone? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The internal carotid artery enters the cranium through the carotid canal in the temporal bone. A second set of vessels that supply the CNS are the vertebral arteries, which are protected as they pass through the neck region by the transverse foramina of the cervical vertebrae. The vertebral arteries enter the cranium through the foramen magnum of the occipital bone. Branches off the left and right vertebral arteries merge into the anterior spinal artery supplying the anterior aspect of the spinal cord, found along the anterior median fissure. The two vertebral arteries then merge into the basilar artery, which gives rise to branches to the brain stem and cerebellum. The left and right internal carotid arteries and branches of the basilar artery all become the circle of Willis, a confluence of arteries that can maintain perfusion of the brain even if narrowing or a blockage limits flow through one part (Figure 13.15). Choices: - atrial artery - external carotid - venal artery - internal carotid artery A:
(Answer)
internal carotid artery

Ques:Q: What is it called when a liquid displays more attraction between the liquid particles than attraction between the liquid and the glass? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Some liquids, such as mercury, display more attraction between the liquid particles than attraction between the liquid and the glass. This is known as cohesion . The pull between the liquid particles is stronger, so the liquid pulls away from the glass. Choices: - tension - flexion - stability - cohesion A:

Ans:cohesion

Q: What gets released into the atmosphere when fossil fuels are burned? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Using fossil fuels and nuclear energy creates other problems as well. The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This is one of the major greenhouse gases causing global climate change. Nuclear power creates another set of problems, including the disposal of radioactive waste. Choices: - oxygen - hydrogen - chemical dioxide - carbon dioxide A:
carbon dioxide
