Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure 7.12 Ethmoid Bone The unpaired ethmoid bone is located at the midline within the central skull. It has an upward projection, the crista galli, and a downward projection, the perpendicular plate, which forms the upper nasal septum. The cribriform plates form both the roof of the nasal cavity and a portion of the anterior cranial fossa floor. The lateral sides of the ethmoid bone form the lateral walls of the upper nasal cavity, part of the medial orbit wall, and give rise to the superior and middle nasal conchae. The ethmoid bone also contains the ethmoid air cells. Q: The unpaired ethmoid bone is located where within the central skull? Choices: - at the top - at the point - at the fold - at the midline A:
at the midline
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Vertebrates have a system of muscles attached to the endoskeleton to enable movement. Muscles control movement by alternately contracting (shortening) and relaxing (lengthening). Generally, muscles work together in opposing pairs. Q: In vertebrates, a system of what structures attached to the endoskeleton enables movement? Choices: - nerves - tendons - tissues - muscles A:
muscles
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: User:Grm_wnr/Wikimedia Commons, modified by CK-12 Foundation. The central nervous system is composed of the brain and the spinal cord . Public Domain. Q: The central nervous system is composed of the brain and what else? Choices: - the sclerotic cord - the dynamic cord - the lateral cord - the spinal cord A:
A: the spinal cord
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: When current flows in just one direction, it is called direct current (DC) . The diagram below shows how direct current flows through a simple circuit. An example of direct current is the current that flows through a battery-powered flashlight. In addition to batteries, solar cells and fuel cells can also provide direct current. Q: What kind of current flows in just one direction? Choices: - physical current - slow current - Alternating current - direct current A:
Answer: direct current

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Placental mammals get their name from the placenta. This is a spongy structure that develops during pregnancy only in placental mammals. You can see where a human placenta forms in Figure below . The placenta sustains the fetus while it grows inside the mother's uterus. It consists of membranes and blood vessels from both mother and fetus. It allows substances to pass between the mother's blood and that of the fetus. The fetus gets oxygen and nutrients from the mother. It passes carbon dioxide and other wastes to the mother. Q: What sustains the fetus while it grows inside the mother's uterus? Choices: - bacteria - endometrium - mitochondria - placenta A:
**Answer**
placenta
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Nervous system Most nematodes possess four longitudinal nerve cords that run along the length of the body in dorsal, ventral, and lateral positions. The ventral nerve cord is better developed than the dorsal or lateral cords. All nerve cords fuse at the anterior end, around the pharynx, to form head ganglia or the "brain" of the worm (which take the form of a ring around the pharynx) as well as at the posterior end to form the tail ganglia. In C. elegans, the nervous system accounts for nearly one-third of the total number of cells in the animal. Reproduction Nematodes employ a variety of reproductive strategies that range from monoecious to dioecious to parthenogenic, depending upon the species under consideration. elegans is a monoecious species and shows development of ova contained in a uterus as well as sperm contained in the spermatheca. The uterus has an external opening known as the vulva. The female genital pore is near the middle of the body, whereas the male's is at the tip. Specialized structures at the tail of the male keep him in place while he deposits sperm with copulatory spicules. Fertilization is internal, and embryonic development starts very soon after fertilization. The embryo is released from the vulva during the gastrulation stage. The embryonic development stage lasts for 14 hours; development then continues through four successive larval stages with ecdysis between each stageL1, L2, L3, and L4ultimately leading to the development of a young male or female adult worm. Adverse environmental conditions like overcrowding and lack of food can result in the formation of an intermediate larval stage known as the dauer larva. Q: The uterus has an external opening known as what? Choices: - cervix - ovaries - fallopian tubes - vulva A:
A: vulva
