Q: The cytoplasm divides during what stage of the cell cycle? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: 3. The third step is the division of the rest of the cell. This is called cytokinesis, as it is in a prokaryotic cell. During this step, the cytoplasm divides, and two daughter cells form. Choices: - electrolysis - birthing - capitis - cytokinesis A:
cytokinesis

Q: What type of physics explains the behavior of visible light and electromagnetic waves? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: We already know that visible light is the type of electromagnetic waves to which our eyes respond. That knowledge still leaves many questions regarding the nature of light and vision. What is color, and how do our eyes detect it? Why do diamonds sparkle? How does light travel? How do lenses and mirrors form images? These are but a few of the questions that are answered by the study of optics. Optics is the branch of physics that deals with the behavior of visible light and other electromagnetic waves. In particular, optics is concerned with the generation and propagation of light and its interaction with matter. What we have already learned about the generation of light in our study of heat transfer by radiation will be expanded upon in later topics, especially those on atomic physics. Now, we will concentrate on the propagation of light and its interaction with matter. It is convenient to divide optics into two major parts based on the size of objects that light encounters. When light interacts with an object that is several times as large as the light's wavelength, its observable behavior is like that of a ray; it does not prominently display its wave characteristics. We call this part of optics "geometric optics. " This chapter will concentrate on such situations. When light interacts with smaller objects, it has very prominent wave characteristics, such as constructive and destructive interference. Wave Optics will concentrate on such situations. Choices: - Quantum mechanics - Thermodynamics - statistics - optics A:
optics

Q: Q: Lymphatic capillaries are interlaced with the arterioles and venules of which system? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Figure 21.3 Lymphatic Capillaries Lymphatic capillaries are interlaced with the arterioles and venules of the cardiovascular system. Collagen fibers anchor a lymphatic capillary in the tissue (inset). Interstitial fluid slips through spaces between the overlapping endothelial cells that compose the lymphatic capillary. Choices: - skeletal systems - circulatory system - atmospheric system - cardiovascular system A:
A: cardiovascular system

Question: Q: Are giraffes herbivores or are they omnivores? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Then, as now, giraffes fed on tree leaves. Perhaps the environment changed, and leaves became scarcer. There would be more giraffes than the trees could support. Thus, there would be a "struggle for existence. ". Choices: - neither - carnivores - omnivores - herbivores A:
Answer: herbivores

*Question*
Q: What is the leading cause of soil erosion? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The same agents that erode landscapes also erode soil. They are water, wind, ice, or gravity. Running water is the leading cause of soil erosion. Water is abundant and has a lot of power. Wind is also a leading cause of soil erosion. Wind can pick up soil and blow it far away. Choices: - tidal winds - volcanic explosions - glacier movement - running water A:
**Answer**
running water

Q: The vestibulocochlear nerve is responsible for the senses of hearing and what else? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: motor nucleus), and their target (sensory nucleus or skeletal muscle). They are listed here with a brief explanation of each nerve (Figure 13.23). The olfactory nerve and optic nerve are responsible for the sense of smell and vision, respectively. The oculomotor nerve is responsible for eye movements by controlling four of the extraocular muscles. It is also responsible for lifting the upper eyelid when the eyes point up, and for pupillary constriction. The trochlear nerve and the abducens nerve are both responsible for eye movement, but do so by controlling different extraocular muscles. The trigeminal nerve is responsible for cutaneous sensations of the face and controlling the muscles of mastication. The facial nerve is responsible for the muscles involved in facial expressions, as well as part of the sense of taste and the production of saliva. The vestibulocochlear nerve is responsible for the senses of hearing and balance. The glossopharyngeal nerve is responsible for controlling muscles in the oral cavity and upper throat, as well as part of the sense of taste and the production of saliva. The vagus nerve is responsible for contributing to homeostatic control of the organs of the thoracic and upper abdominal cavities. The spinal accessory nerve is responsible for controlling the muscles of the neck, along with cervical spinal nerves. The hypoglossal nerve is responsible for controlling the muscles of the lower throat and tongue. Choices: - awareness - sight - smell - balance A:
**Answer**
balance
