Answer the following question given this paragraph: During metamorphism, a rock may change chemically. Ions move in or out of a mineral. This creates a different mineral. The new minerals that form during metamorphism are more stable in the new environment. Extreme pressure may lead to physical changes. If pressure is exerted on the rock from one direction, the rock forms layers. This is foliation . If pressure is exerted from all directions, the rock usually does not show foliation. Q: If pressure is exerted on the rock from one direction, the rock forms layers. this is called what? Choices: - protonation - stratification - sedimentation - foliation A:
foliation
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Glucose is the carbohydrate produced by photosynthesis. Energy-rich glucose is delivered through your blood to each of your cells. Q: Which carbohydrate is produced by photosynthesis? Choices: - protein - insulin - sugar - glucose A:
glucose
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Proteins are biochemical compounds that consist of one or more chains of small molecules called amino acids. Amino acids are the monomers of proteins. There are only about 20 different amino acids. The sequence of amino acids in chains and the number of chains in a protein determine the protein's shape. Shapes may be very complex. You can learn more about the shapes of proteins at this link:. Q: What is the name for biochemical compounds that consist of one or more chains of small molecules called amino acids? Choices: - lipids - protons - hormones - proteins A:
A: proteins
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Selective precipitation can also be used in qualitative analysis. In this method, reagents are added to an unknown chemical mixture in order to induce precipitation. Certain reagents cause specific ions to precipitate out; therefore, the addition of the reagent can be used to determine whether the ion is present in the solution. Q: In qualitative analysis, reagents are added to an unknown chemical mixture in order to induce what? Choices: - motion - sunlight - erosion - precipitation A:
Answer: precipitation

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The first eight phyla listed in Table above include only invertebrate animals. Invertebrates are animals that lack a vertebral column , or backbone . The last phylum in the table, the Chordata, also includes many invertebrate species. Tunicates and lancelets are both invertebrates. Altogether, invertebrates make up at least 95 percent of all animal species. The remaining animals are vertebrates. Vertebrates are animals that have a backbone. All vertebrates belong to the phylum Chordata . They include fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Q: What is the term for animals that have a backbone? Choices: - carnivores - invertebrates - herbivores - vertebrates A:
**Answer**
vertebrates

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The formation of scientific theories is generally guided by the law of parsimony. The word parsimony means "thriftiness. " The law of parsimony states that, when choosing between competing theories, you should select the theory that makes the fewest assumptions. In other words, the simpler theory is more likely to be correct. For example, you probably know that Earth and the other planets of our solar system orbit around the sun. But several centuries ago, it was believed that Earth is at the center of the solar system and the other planets orbit around Earth. While it is possible to explain the movement of planets according to this theory, the explanation is unnecessarily complex. Q: What the scientific concept stating that when looking at two competing theories, the one with fewer assumptions should be chosen? Choices: - law of thermodynamics - law of simplicity - law of averages - law of parsimony A:
**Answer**
law of parsimony
