Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: 5.3 Functions of the Integumentary System The skin plays important roles in protection, sensing stimuli, thermoregulation, and vitamin D synthesis. It is the first layer of defense to prevent dehydration, infection, and injury to the rest of the body. Sweat glands in the skin allow the skin surface to cool when the body gets overheated. Thermoregulation is also accomplished by the dilation or constriction of heat-carrying blood vessels in the skin. Immune cells present among the skin layers patrol the areas to keep them free of foreign materials. Fat stores in the hypodermis aid in both thermoregulation and protection. Finally, the skin plays a role in the synthesis of vitamin D, which is necessary for our well-being but not easily available in natural foods. Q: What system, which includes the skin, plays important roles in protection, sensing stimuli and thermoregulation? A:

OPTIONS:
- digestive system
- pectins system
- teleporters system
- integumentary system

A: integumentary system

input: OPTIONS:
- decomposition
- sublimation
- petrification
- fossilization Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The process by which remains or traces of living things become fossils is called fossilization . Most fossils are preserved in sedimentary rocks. Q: What is the process by which the remains of living things become fossils? A:
A:
output: fossilization

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Heat is the exchange of energy from one part of the universe to another. Heat and energy have the same units. Q: What is the exchange of energy from one part of the universe to another called? A:

OPTIONS:
- cold
- temperature
- humidity
- heat

Answer: heat

Problem: OPTIONS:
- octaves
- moles
- centimeters
- decibels
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Sound intensity levels are quoted in decibels (dB) much more often than sound intensities in watts per meter squared. Decibels are the unit of choice in the scientific literature as well as in the popular media. The reasons for this choice of units are related to how we perceive sounds. How our ears perceive sound can be more accurately described by the logarithm of the intensity rather than directly to the intensity. The sound intensity level in decibels of a sound having an intensity I in watts per meter squared is defined to be. Q: What is the measure of sound intensity levels? A:
Answer: decibels

Problem:OPTIONS:
- shallowest
- youngest
- thickest
- oldest

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The oldest crust is coldest and lies deepest in the ocean. Q: Which crust lies deep inside the ocean? A:
****
A: oldest

Problem:OPTIONS:
- perennials
- deciduous
- evergreen
- flowering plants

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Flowering vascular plants also have diverse leaves. However, the leaves of all flowering plants have two basic parts in common: the blade and petiole (see Figure above ). The blade of the leaf is the relatively wide, flat part of the leaf that gathers sunlight and undergoes photosynthesis. The petiole is the part that attaches the leaf to a stem of the plant. This occurs at a node. Q: The leaves of all of what type of plants have two basic parts in common: the blade and petiole? A:
****
A:
flowering plants
