Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Immunity can also be caused by vaccination. Vaccination is the process of exposing a person to a pathogen on purpose in order to develop immunity. In vaccination, a modified pathogen is usually injected under the skin by a shot. Only part of the pathogen is injected, or a weak or dead pathogen is used. It sounds dangerous, but the shot prepares your body for fighting the pathogen without causing the actual illness. Vaccination triggers an immune response against the injected antigen. The body prepares "memory" cells for use at a later time, in case the antigen is ever encountered again. Essentially, a vaccine imitates an infection, triggering an immune response, without making a person sick. Q: What is the term for the process of exposing a person to a pathogen on purpose in order to develop immunity? Choices: - evacuation - ramping - priming - vaccination A:
Ans: vaccination

Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The stomach mucosa's epithelial lining consists only of surface mucus cells, which secrete a protective coat of alkaline mucus. A vast number of gastric pits dot the surface of the epithelium, giving it the appearance of a well-used pincushion, and mark the entry to each gastric gland, which secretes a complex digestive fluid referred to as gastric juice. Although the walls of the gastric pits are made up primarily of mucus cells, the gastric glands are made up of different types of cells. The glands of the cardia and pylorus are composed primarily of mucus-secreting cells. Cells that make up the pyloric antrum secrete mucus and a number of hormones, including the majority of the stimulatory hormone, gastrin. The much larger glands of the fundus and body of the stomach, the site of most chemical digestion, produce most of the gastric secretions. These glands are made up of a variety of secretory cells. These include parietal cells, chief cells, mucous neck cells, and enteroendocrine cells. Parietal cellsLocated primarily in the middle region of the gastric glands are parietal cells, which are among the most highly differentiated of the body's epithelial cells. These relatively large cells produce both hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor. HCl is responsible for the high acidity (pH 1.5 to 3.5) of the stomach contents and is needed to activate the protein-digesting enzyme, pepsin. The acidity also kills much of the bacteria you ingest with food and helps to denature proteins, making them more available for enzymatic digestion. Intrinsic factor is a glycoprotein necessary for the absorption of vitamin B12 in the small intestine. Chief cellsLocated primarily in the basal regions of gastric glands are chief cells, which secrete pepsinogen, the inactive proenzyme form of pepsin. HCl is necessary for the conversion of pepsinogen to pepsin. Mucous neck cellsGastric glands in the upper part of the stomach contain mucous neck cells that secrete thin, acidic mucus that is much different from the mucus... Q: The stomach mucosa's epithelial lining consists only of surface mucus cells, which secrete a protective coat of what? Choices: - bile mucus - phosphate mucus - acidic mucus - alkaline mucus A:
Ans: alkaline mucus

Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Unlike the majority of arachnids, scorpions produce live young. The young are carried about on the mother's back until they have molted at least once. They reach an age of between four to 25 years. Q: What type of young do scorpions produce? Choices: - twins - identical - guppies - live A:
Ans: live

Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: If the rocks on one or both sides of a fracture move, the fracture is called a fault ( Figure below ). Faults can occur alone or in clusters. A cluster of faults creates a fault zone . Earthquakes happen when rocks break and move suddenly. The energy released causes an earthquake. Q: What is the fracture called when rocks on both sides move? Choices: - a crevice - a shear - a stress fracture - a fault A:
Ans:
a fault
