Answer the following question given this paragraph: Insectivorous Plants An insectivorous plant has specialized leaves to attract and digest insects. The Venus flytrap is popularly known for its insectivorous mode of nutrition, and has leaves that work as traps (Figure 31.16). The minerals it obtains from prey compensate for those lacking in the boggy (low pH) soil of its native North Carolina coastal plains. There are three sensitive hairs in the center of each half of each leaf. The edges of each leaf are covered with long spines. Nectar secreted by the plant attracts flies to the leaf. When a fly touches the sensory hairs, the leaf immediately closes. Next, fluids and enzymes break down the prey and minerals are absorbed by the leaf. Since this plant is popular in the horticultural trade, it is threatened in its original habitat. Q: What helps an insectivorous plant attract and digest insects? Choices: - specialized flowers - special seeds - spines - specialized leaves A:
specialized leaves

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Female Urethra The external urethral orifice is embedded in the anterior vaginal wall inferior to the clitoris, superior to the vaginal opening (introitus), and medial to the labia minora. Its short length, about 4 cm, is less of a barrier to fecal bacteria than the longer male urethra and the best explanation for the greater incidence of UTI in women. Voluntary control of the external urethral sphincter is a function of the pudendal nerve. It arises in the sacral region of the spinal cord, traveling via the S2S4 nerves of the sacral plexus. Q: The short length of what in women is the best explanation for the greater incidence of uti in women? Choices: - vagina - fallopian tube - uterus - urethra A:
A: urethra
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: A solution of cobalt chloride in water is pink due to the presence of the solvated Co 2+ ion. If sufficient HCl is added, the solution turns blue as the CoCl 4 2- ion forms. The reaction can be shifted back to the pink form if more water is added to the solution. Q: What causes cobalt chloride to turn pink? Choices: - discussed 2 + ions - show 2 + ions - h20 + ions - co 2+ ions A:
Answer: co 2+ ions

Answer the following question given this paragraph: When HCl is dissolved into water, it is called hydrochloric acid. Ionic compounds and some polar compounds are completely broken apart into ions and thus conduct a current very well. A strong electrolyte is a solution in which a large fraction of the dissolved solute exists as ions. Q: Hydrochloric acid is formed when hcl is dissolved into what? Choices: - blood - sodium - plasma - water A:
**Answer**
water
