Answer the following question given this paragraph: Like hagfish, lampreys also lack scales, but they have fins and a partial backbone. The most striking feature of lampreys is a large round sucker, lined with teeth, that surrounds the mouth (see Figure below ). Lampreys use their sucker to feed on the blood of other fish species. Q: Lampreys possess a large round sucker, lined with teeth, that surrounds the mouth and is used to feed on what? A:

OPTIONS:
- parasites
- herbivores
- marrow
- blood

Answer: blood

Problem: OPTIONS:
- alveoli
- ethmoid vacuoles
- amniotic sacs
- ethmoid air cells
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure 7.18 Paranasal Sinuses The paranasal sinuses are hollow, air-filled spaces named for the skull bone that each occupies. The most anterior is the frontal sinus, located in the frontal bone above the eyebrows. The largest are the maxillary sinuses, located in the right and left maxillary bones below the orbits. The most posterior is the sphenoid sinus, located in the body of the sphenoid bone, under the sella turcica. The ethmoid air cells are multiple small spaces located in the right and left sides of the ethmoid bone, between the medial wall of the orbit and lateral wall of the upper nasal cavity. Q: What type of cells are multiple small spaces located in the right and left sides of the ethmoid bone? A:
Answer: ethmoid air cells

Problem:OPTIONS:
- cartilage
- epithelial tissue
- soft tissue
- connective tissue

Answer the following question given this paragraph: develops from myoblasts derived from the mesoderm. Myocytes and their numbers remain relatively constant throughout life. Skeletal muscle tissue is arranged in bundles surrounded by connective tissue. Under the light microscope, muscle cells appear striated with many nuclei squeezed along the membranes. The striation is due to the regular alternation of the contractile proteins actin and myosin, along with the structural proteins that couple the contractile proteins to connective tissues. The cells are multinucleated as a result of the fusion of the many myoblasts that fuse to form each long muscle fiber. Cardiac muscle forms the contractile walls of the heart. The cells of cardiac muscle, known as cardiomyocytes, also appear striated under the microscope. Unlike skeletal muscle fibers, cardiomyocytes are single cells typically with a single centrally located nucleus. A principal characteristic of cardiomyocytes is that they contract on their own intrinsic rhythms without any external stimulation. Cardiomyocyte attach to one another with specialized cell junctions called intercalated discs. Intercalated discs have both anchoring junctions and gap junctions. Attached cells form long, branching cardiac muscle fibers that are, essentially, a mechanical and electrochemical syncytium allowing the cells to synchronize their actions. The cardiac muscle pumps blood through the body and is under involuntary control. The attachment junctions hold adjacent cells together across the dynamic pressures changes of the cardiac cycle. Smooth muscle tissue contraction is responsible for involuntary movements in the internal organs. It forms the contractile component of the digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems as well as the airways and arteries. Each cell is spindle shaped with a single nucleus and no visible striations (Figure 4.18). Q: Skeletal muscle tissue is arranged in bundles surrounded by this? A:
****
A: connective tissue

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The depression that allows water to collect to form a lake may come about in a variety of ways. The Great Lakes, for example, are glacial lakes. A glacial lake forms when a glacier scrapes a large hole in the ground. When the glacier melts, the water fills the hole and forms a lake. Over time, water enters the lake from the sources mentioned above as well. Q: What forms when a glacier scrapes a large hole in the ground? A:
OPTIONS:
- frozen lake
- drift lake
- melting lake
- glacial lake
glacial lake

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The scientific method is employed by scientists around the world, but it is not always conducted in the order above. Sometimes, hypothesis are formulated before observations are collected; sometimes observations are made before hypothesis are created. Regardless, it is important that scientists record their procedures carefully, allowing others to reproduce and verify the experimental data and results. After many experiments provide results supporting a hypothesis, the hypothesis becomes a theory . Theories remain theories forever, and are constantly being retested with every experiment and observation. Theories can never become fact or law . Q: What does a hypothesis become after many experiments provide results supporting it? A:
OPTIONS:
- a model
- a fact
- a study
- a theory

Answer: a theory

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Regardless of whether reactions are exothermic reactions or endothermic reactions , they all need energy to get started. This energy is called activation energy . Activation energy is like the push you need to start moving down a slide. The push gives you enough energy to start moving. Once you start, you keep moving without being pushed again. Activation energy is defined as the energy that must be overcome in order for a chemical reaction to occur, or the minimum energy required to start a chemical reaction. The concept of activation energy is illustrated in Figure below . Q: What do you call the energy that must be overcome in order for a chemical reaction to occur, or the minimum energy required to start a chemical reaction? A:
OPTIONS:
- expression energy
- phase energy
- kinetic energy
- activation energy
output:
activation energy
