input: Please answer the following: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The atoms become unstable - The atoms split - In alpha decay, two protons and two neutrons are released from the atom - In beta decay, a neutron changes into a proton and an electron - The proton joins the nucleus of the atom - The electron is released -
++++++++++
output: The nuclei of some atoms have too few or too many neutrons

Please answer this: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The lungs expand - Air is pulled from outside the body, into the lungs - The membranes in the lungs collect oxygen molecules - Oxygen is transferred to red blood cells - Red blood cells distribute oxygen throughout the body -

Answer: The diaphragm contracts

Problem: What is the missing first step of the following process: - Through erosion, the stream cuts into the soil and bedrock - Through continuous erosion, a deep gash is cut through - After many years the river may dry up - A dry ravine is left -

A: A stream or river must occur

Problem: Given the question: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The cracks get very long and big in some places - The earth places pressure against the rocks on both sides of the cracks - The pressure causes the rocks to press against each other very hard - The cracks continue to develop - The earth moves against itself on both sides of the cracks - The pressure and movement around the cracks causes the rocks to crumble in some places - A lot of energy is released - The energy causes seismic waves - The seismic waves move the earth in an earthquake.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The answer is:
The earth develops cracks deep beneath the surface

input question: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The earth changes energy from the sun into heat - Heat rises from the ground - Greenhouse gas molecules in the atmosphere prevent the heat from going into space - The temperature of the earth increases - The temperature continues to rise and melts the polar ice caps - The temperature rises even faster.???
output answer: Greenhouse gases are released into the air by human activities

input question: What is the missing first step of the following process: - The fault lines grow over time - The rocks on each side of the fault lines rub against the rocks on the other side of the fault line - The rocks put pressure on each other - The rocks break from the pressure - The breaking of the rocks releases a lot of energy - The energy causes seismic waves - The seismic waves make the earth shake.???
output answer:
Fault lines appear underground
