Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: In ordinary chemical reactions, the nucleus of each atom (and thus the identity of the element) remains unchanged. Electrons, however, can be added to atoms by transfer from other atoms, lost by transfer to other atoms, or shared with other atoms. The transfer and sharing of electrons among atoms govern the chemistry of the elements. During the formation of some compounds, atoms gain or lose electrons, and form electrically charged particles called ions (Figure 2.28). Q: When atoms gain or lose electrons, they can form electrically charged particles called what? Choices: - crystals - eons - toxins - ions A:

Ans:ions

Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: There are some properties that all liquids have. The liquid that we are most familiar with is probably water, and it has these properties. Other liquids have them as well, which is something to keep in mind. All liquids have a certain portion of their particles having enough energy to enter the gas phase, and if these particles are at the surface of the liquid, they do so ( - ball-ch10_s03_f01). The formation of a gas from a liquid at temperatures below the boiling point is called evaporation. At these temperatures, the material in the gas phase is called vapor, rather than gas; the term gas is reserved for when the gas phase is the stable phase. Figure 10.5 Evaporation. Q: What do we call the formation of a gas from a liquid at temperatures below the boiling point? Choices: - melting - pulverization - steaming - evaporation A:

Ans:evaporation

Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: What is the difference between a trait and a genetic disorder ? Could a disorder be considered a trait? We tend to think of traits as hair color or skin color and disorders as something that is bad for you. But in terms of genetics, a genetic disorder is a trait. Both may be due to your genes. Traits may be inherited in any of a number of ways: autosomal dominant or recessive, sex-linked inheritance, or a more complex pattern of inheritance. Q: Hair color and skin color are known as what? Choices: - habits - abominations - mutations - traits A:

Ans:traits

Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: The vascular tissues for which these plants are named are specialized to transport fluid. They consist of long, narrow cells arranged end-to-end, forming tubes. There are two different types of vascular tissues, called xylem and phloem. Both are shown in Figure below . Q: What are the two different types of vascular tissues called? Choices: - acid and base - biotic and abiotic - epidermis and dermis - xylem and phloem A:

Ans:
xylem and phloem
