*Question*
Q: What do you call taxes placed on products that produce carbon dioxide? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Carbon taxes are taxes placed on products that produce carbon dioxide. An example of this is gasoline for your car. The taxes encourage people to use less fossil fuel. This naturally reduces carbon dioxide emissions. Choices: - pollution tax - chemical tax - emission tax - carbon taxes A:
**Answer**
carbon taxes

Q: The motion of molecules in a gas is random in magnitude and direction for individual molecules, but a gas of many molecules has a predictable distribution of what, which is called the maxwell-boltzmann distribution? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Distribution of Molecular Speeds The motion of molecules in a gas is random in magnitude and direction for individual molecules, but a gas of many molecules has a predictable distribution of molecular speeds. This distribution is called the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution, after its originators, who calculated it based on kinetic theory, and has since been confirmed experimentally. (See Figure 13.23. ) The distribution has a long tail, because a few molecules may go several times the rms speed. The most probable speed v p is less than the rms speed. Choices: - molecular size - molecular rate - molecular shape - molecular speeds A:
**Answer**
molecular speeds

Q: Loss of muscle mass due to breakdown of structural proteins is known as what? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: 10.6 Exercise and Muscle Performance Hypertrophy is an increase in muscle mass due to the addition of structural proteins. The opposite of hypertrophy is atrophy, the loss of muscle mass due to the breakdown of structural proteins. Endurance exercise causes an increase in cellular. Choices: - distrophy - mutation - exhaustion - atrophy A:
**Answer**
atrophy
