Answer the following question given this paragraph: The Uterus and Cervix The uterus is the muscular organ that nourishes and supports the growing embryo (see Figure 27.14). Its average size is approximately 5 cm wide by 7 cm long (approximately 2 in by 3 in) when a female is not pregnant. It has three sections. The portion of the uterus superior to the opening of the uterine tubes is called the fundus. The middle section of the uterus is called the body of uterus (or corpus). The cervix is the narrow inferior portion of the uterus that projects into the vagina. The cervix produces mucus secretions that become thin and stringy under the influence of high systemic plasma estrogen concentrations, and these secretions can facilitate sperm movement through the reproductive tract. Q: What is the muscular organ that nourishes and supports the growing embryo? Choices: - fallopian tube - stomach - ovary - uterus A:

Answer the following question given this paragraph: If pollination and fertilization occur, a diploid zygote forms within an ovule in the ovary. The zygote develops into an embryo inside a seed, which forms from the ovule and also contains food to nourish the embryo. The ovary surrounding the seed may develop into a fruit. Fruits attract animals that may disperse the seeds they contain. If a seed germinates, it may grow into a mature sporophyte plant and repeat the cycle. Q: If pollination and fertilization occur, a diploid zygote forms within an ovule, located where Choices: - bladder - uterus - testicle - ovary A:
(Answer)
ovary

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Ocean water also absorbs gases from the atmosphere. The most important are oxygen and carbon dioxide. Oxygen is needed by living things in the oceans. Much of the carbon dioxide sinks to the bottom of the seas. Carbon dioxide is a major cause of global warming. By absorbing carbon dioxide, the oceans help control global warming. Q: How do oceans help control global warming? Choices: - releasing oxygen - reflecting light - Cooling air - absorbing carbon dioxide A:
(Answer)
absorbing carbon dioxide
