Answer the following question given this paragraph: Richter scale magnitudes jump from one level to the next. The height of the largest wave increases 10 times with each level. So the height of the largest seismic wave of a magnitude 5 quake is 10 times that of a magnitude 4 quake. A magnitude 5 is 100 times that of a magnitude 3 quake. With each level, thirty times more energy is released. A difference of two levels on the Richter scale equals 900 times more released energy. Q: How many times does the height of the largest wave increase with each level? Choices: - 20 times - 100 times - 5 times - 10 times A:
10 times

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The ears are also responsible for the sense of balance. Balance is the ability to sense and maintain body position. The semicircular canals inside the ear (see Figure above ) contain fluid that moves when the head changes position. Tiny hairs lining the semicircular canals sense movement of the fluid. In response, they send nerve impulses to the vestibular nerve , which carries the impulses to the brain. The brain interprets the impulses and sends messages to the peripheral nervous system. This system maintains the body's balance by triggering contractions of skeletal muscles as needed. Q: What is responsible for our sense of balance? Choices: - our eyes - our limbs - our feet - our ears A:
**Answer**
our ears
