Answer the following question given this paragraph: Animal and Human Parasites and Pathogens Fungi can affect animals, including humans, in several ways. Fungi attack animals directly by colonizing and destroying tissues. Humans and other animals can be poisoned by eating toxic mushrooms or foods contaminated by fungi. In addition, individuals who display hypersensitivity to molds and spores develop strong and dangerous allergic reactions. Fungal infections are generally very difficult to treat because, unlike bacteria, fungi are eukaryotes. Antibiotics only target prokaryotic cells, whereas compounds that kill fungi also adversely affect the eukaryotic animal host. Many fungal infections ( mycoses) are superficial and termed cutaneous (meaning "skin") mycoses. They are usually visible on the skin of the animal. Fungi that cause the superficial mycoses of the epidermis, hair, and nails rarely spread to the underlying tissue (Figure 13.26). These fungi are often misnamed "dermatophytes" from the Greek dermis skin and phyte plant, but they are not plants. Dermatophytes are also called "ringworms" because of the red ring that they cause on skin (although the ring is caused by fungi, not a worm). These fungi secrete extracellular enzymes that break down keratin (a protein found in hair, skin, and nails), causing a number of conditions such as athlete's foot, jock itch, and other cutaneous fungal infections. These conditions are usually treated with over-the-counter topical creams and powders, and are easily cleared. More persistent, superficial mycoses may require prescription oral medications. Q: Antibiotics only target prokaryotic cells - they do not affect fungi, which are not prokaryotic, but instead what? A:
OPTIONS:
- chloroplasts
- mammals
- plants
- eukaryotic

Answer: eukaryotic

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Biochemical compounds are carbon-based compounds that are found in living things. The similarity in biochemical compounds between living things provides evidence for the evolution of species from common ancestors. Q: The similarity in biochemical compounds between living things provides evidence for the evolution of species from what? A:
OPTIONS:
- recent ancestors
- varied ancestors
- rare tribes
- common ancestors
Answer: common ancestors

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The endocrine system consists of glands that secrete hormones into the bloodstream. It is regulated by a part of the brain called the hypothalamus, which also secretes hormones. The hypothalamus controls the pituitary gland, which is called the "master gland" of the endocrine system because its hormones regulate other endocrine glands. Other endocrine glands include the thyroid gland and pancreas. Q: What specific part of the brain regulates the endocrine system? A:
OPTIONS:
- parietal lobe
- hippocampus
- frontal lobe
- hypothalamus
output: hypothalamus

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: Plants supply, ultimately, most of the food eaten by terrestrial animals, along with what gas? A:

OPTIONS:
- hydrogen
- nitrogen
- carbon dioxide
- oxygen

A: oxygen

input: OPTIONS:
- protein
- mineral
- mass
- energy Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: an identical particle that has been ejected from a heavier nucleus. There are six fundamentally different kinds of nuclear decay reactions, and each releases a different kind of particle or energy. The essential features of each reaction are shown in Figure 20.4 "Common Modes of Nuclear Decay". The most common are alphaand beta decay and gamma emission, but the others are essential to an understanding of nuclear decay reactions. Figure 20.4 Common Modes of Nuclear Decay. Q: There are six fundamentally different kinds of nuclear decay reactions, and each releases a different kind of particle or what? A:
A:
output: energy

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The process in which DNA is copied is called DNA replication . You can see how it happens in Figure below . An enzyme breaks the bonds between the two DNA strands. Another enzyme pairs new, complementary nucleotides with those in the original chains. Two daughter DNA molecules form. Each contains one new chain and one original chain. Q: The process in which dna is copied is called what? A:
OPTIONS:
- dna transfer
- dna duplication
- dna splicing
- dna replication
Answer:
dna replication
