Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Barrier islands provide natural protection to shorelines. Storm waves strike the barrier island before they reach the shore. People also build artificial barriers, called breakwaters . Breakwaters also protect the shoreline from incoming waves. You can see an example of a breakwater in Figure below . It runs parallel to the coast like a barrier island. Q: What kind of islands provide natural protection to shorelines? A: | OPTIONS:
- patch islands
- locational islands
- edge islands
- barrier islands
A: barrier islands

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Transpiration occurs when plants release water vapor through leaf pores called stomata (see Figure below ). The water is a product of photosynthesis. Q: What occurs when plants release water vapor through stomata (leaf pores)? A: | OPTIONS:
- inhalation
- evaporation
- crystallization
- transpiration
A: transpiration

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: 11.8 Cohesion and Adhesion in Liquids: Surface Tension and Capillary Action Cohesion and Adhesion in Liquids Children blow soap bubbles and play in the spray of a sprinkler on a hot summer day. (See Figure 11.27. ) An underwater spider keeps his air supply in a shiny bubble he carries wrapped around him. A technician draws blood into a small-diameter tube just by touching it to a drop on a pricked finger. A premature infant struggles to inflate her lungs. What is the common thread? All these activities are dominated by the attractive forces between atoms and molecules in liquidsboth within a liquid and between the liquid and its surroundings. Attractive forces between molecules of the same type are called cohesive forces. Liquids can, for example, be held in open containers because cohesive forces hold the molecules together. Attractive forces between molecules of different types are called adhesive forces. Such forces cause liquid drops to cling to window panes, for example. In this section we examine effects directly attributable to cohesive and adhesive forces in liquids. Q: What does an underwater spider use to breathe and keep alive? A: | OPTIONS:
- forehead air bubble
- gills
- metallic air bubble
- shiny air bubble
A: shiny air bubble

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The different feeding positions in a food chain or web are called trophic levels. Generally, there are no more than four trophic levels because energy and biomass decrease from lower to higher levels. Q: What are the different feeding positions in a food chain or web called? A: | OPTIONS:
- neural levels
- Primary Level
- convoluted levels
- trophic levels
A: trophic levels
