Answer the following question given this paragraph: Large ocean currents can have a big impact on the climate of nearby coasts. The Gulf Stream, for example, carries warm water from near the equator up the eastern coast of North America. Look at the map in Figure below . It shows how the Gulf Stream warms both the water and land along the coast. Q: Which factor has a big impact on coastal climates? Choices: - ocean waves - tsunami - tide - large ocean currents A:
large ocean currents

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Sometimes ecological succession occurs in areas where life has already existed. These areas already have soil full of nutrients. Secondary succession is the type of succession that happens after something destroys the habitat, such as a flood or other natural disaster. Abandoning a field that was once used for agriculture can also lead to secondary succession ( Figure below ). In this case, the pioneer species would be the grasses that first appear. Lichen would not be necessary as there is already nutrient-rich soil. Slowly, the field would return to its natural state. Q: What is the type of succession that happens after the destruction of a habitat? Choices: - primary succession - typical succession - tertiary succession - secondary succession A:
(Answer)
secondary succession
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Scars and Keloids Most cuts or wounds, with the exception of ones that only scratch the surface (the epidermis), lead to scar formation. A scar is collagen-rich skin formed after the process of wound healing that differs from normal skin. Scarring occurs in cases in which there is repair of skin damage, but the skin fails to regenerate the original skin structure. Fibroblasts generate scar tissue in the form of collagen, and the bulk of repair is due to the basket-weave pattern generated by collagen fibers and does not result in regeneration of the typical cellular structure of skin. Instead, the tissue is fibrous in nature and does not allow for the regeneration of accessory structures, such as hair follicles, sweat glands, or sebaceous glands. Sometimes, there is an overproduction of scar tissue, because the process of collagen formation does not stop when the wound is healed; this results in the formation of a raised or hypertrophic scar called a keloid. In contrast, scars that result from acne and chickenpox have a sunken appearance and are called atrophic scars. Scarring of skin after wound healing is a natural process and does not need to be treated further. Application of mineral oil and lotions may reduce the formation of scar tissue. However, modern cosmetic procedures, such as dermabrasion, laser treatments, and filler injections have been invented as remedies for severe scarring. All of these procedures try to reorganize the structure of the epidermis and underlying collagen tissue to make it look more natural. Q: What is name for a piece of collagen-rich skin formed after the process of wound healing that differs from normal skin? Choices: - tissue - Sore - size - scar A:
Ans: scar

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Insects are capable of a surprising range of behaviors. Most of their behaviors, such as flying and mating, are instinctive. These are behaviors that don't need to be learned. They are largely controlled by genes. However, some insect behaviors are learned. For example, ants and bees can learn where food is located and keep going back for more. Q: What types of incest behaviors are controlled by genes? Choices: - byproduct behaviors like flying and mating - psychological behaviors like flying and mating - physical behaviors like flying and mating - instinctive behaviors like flying and mating A:
(A).
instinctive behaviors like flying and mating
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Oil spills are another source of ocean pollution. To get at oil buried beneath the seafloor, oil rigs are built in the oceans. These rigs pump oil from beneath the ocean floor. Huge ocean tankers carry oil around the world. If something goes wrong with a rig on a tanker, millions of barrels of oil may end up in the water. The oil may coat and kill ocean animals. Some of the oil will wash ashore. This oil may destroy coastal wetlands and ruin beaches. Q: What source of ocean pollution kills animals by coating them? Choices: - plants spill - grain spill - chemical spill - oil spill A:

Ans:oil spill
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Plates move for two reasons. Upwelling mantle at the mid-ocean ridge pushes plates outward. Cold lithosphere sinking into the mantle at a subduction zone pulls the rest of the plate down with it. Q: Upwelling mantle at the mid-ocean ridge pushes plates in which direction? Choices: - eastward - inward - westward - outward A:

Ans:
outward
