Answer the following question given this paragraph: Many viral diseases can be prevented by giving people vaccines (see Figure below ). A vaccine is a substance that contains pathogens such as viruses. The pathogens have been changed in some way so they no longer cause disease. However, they can still provoke a response from the host's immune system. This results in immunity, or the ability to resist the pathogen. Vaccines have been produced for the viruses that cause measles, chicken pox, mumps, polio, and several other diseases. Q: Many viral diseases can be prevented by giving people what? Choices: - Lactose - pesticides - cancers - vaccines A:
vaccines
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Gamma rays are the most energetic of all electromagnetic waves. They can pass through most materials, including bones and teeth. Nonetheless, even these waves are useful. For example, they can be used to treat cancer. A medical device sends gamma rays the site of the cancer, and the rays destroy the cancerous cells. If you want to learn more about gamma rays, watch the video at the URL below. Q: What are the most energetic of all electromagnetic waves, which can be used to treat cancer? Choices: - ultraviolet - infrared - X-ray - gamma rays A:
A: gamma rays

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Ribosomes are produced in the nucleolus, and then transported to the cytoplasm. Ribosomes are made of ribosomal proteins, called ribonucleoproteins , and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Each ribosome has two parts, a large and a small subunit, as shown in Figure below . The subunits are attached to each other. During translation, the smaller subunit binds to the mRNA, while the larger subunit binds to the tRNA with attached amino acids. When a ribosome finishes reading an mRNA molecule, the two ribosomal subunits disassociate. Q: Ribosomes are produced in the nucleolus, and then transported to the what? Choices: - cerebellum - nucleus - cytoskeleton - cytoplasm A:
**Answer**
cytoplasm

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Roundworms may be free-living or parasitic organisms. Free-living worms are found mainly in freshwater habitats. Some live in moist soil. They generally feed on bacteria, fungi, protozoa, or decaying organic matter. By breaking down organic matter, they play an important role in the carbon cycle. Q: By breaking down organic matter, roundworms play an important role in which cycle? Choices: - water cycle - metamorphic cycle - circadian cycle - carbon cycle A:
**Answer**
carbon cycle
