Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Biochemical reactions are optimal at physiological temperatures. For example, most biochemical reactions work best at the normal body temperature of 98.6F (37C). Many enzymes lose function at lower and higher temperatures. At higher temperatures, an enzyme's shape deteriorates, and only when the temperature comes back to normal does the enzyme regain its shape and normal activity. Q: Biochemical reactions are optimal at physiological temperatures because many what lose function at lower and higher temperatures? A:
OPTIONS:
- hormones
- carbohydrates
- neurons
- enzymes
Answer: enzymes

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: The development of specific structures in specific locations is called what? A:
OPTIONS:
- speciation
- specialty skills
- adaptation
- pattern formation
output: pattern formation

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: When using measuring devices, we often use a technique called calibration to increase the accuracy of our measurements. Calibration is a method of setting or correcting a measuring device by matching it to known measurement standards. To better understand calibration, we will look at the example of calibrating a thermometer. All thermometers are slightly different in their temperature readings. One way to calibrate a thermometer is by using the freezing point and boiling point of water ( Figure below ). If we know that water freezes at 0C and boils at 100C, we can calibrate our thermometer by measuring the temperature of ice water and of boiling water. We place the thermometer in ice water and wait for the thermometer liquid to reach a stable height, then place a mark at this height which represents 0C. Then we place the thermometer in boiling water, and after waiting for the thermometer liquid to reach a stable height, we place a mark at this height which represents 100C. We can then place 100 equally spaced divisions between our 0 and 100C marks to each represent 1C. Our thermometer has now been calibrated using the known values for the freezing point and boiling point of water, and can be used to measure temperatures of objects between 0 and 100C. Q: What is the method of setting or correcting a measuring device by matching it to known measurement standards called? A:

OPTIONS:
- parallax
- distortion
- precision
- calibration

A: calibration

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Equilibrium (Balance) Along with audition, the inner ear is responsible for encoding information about equilibrium, the sense of balance. A similar mechanoreceptora hair cell with stereociliasenses head position, head movement, and whether our bodies are in motion. These cells are located within the vestibule of the inner ear. Head position is sensed by the utricle and saccule, whereas head movement is sensed by the semicircular canals. The neural signals generated in the vestibular ganglion are transmitted through the vestibulocochlear nerve to the brain stem and cerebellum. The utricle and saccule are both largely composed of macula tissue (plural = maculae). The macula is composed of hair cells surrounded by support cells. The stereocilia of the hair cells extend into a viscous gel called the otolithic membrane (Figure 14.11). On top of the otolithic membrane is a layer of calcium carbonate crystals, called otoliths. The otoliths essentially make the otolithic membrane top-heavy. The otolithic membrane moves separately from the macula in response to head movements. Tilting the head causes the otolithic membrane to slide over the macula in the direction of gravity. The moving otolithic membrane, in turn, bends the sterocilia, causing some hair cells to depolarize as others hyperpolarize. The exact position of the head is interpreted by the brain based on the pattern of hair-cell depolarization. Q: On top of the otolithic membrane is a layer of calcium carbonate crystals, called what? A:

OPTIONS:
- cones
- gonads
- calcites
- otoliths

Answer: otoliths

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Primates tend to have bigger brains for their body size than other mammals. This is reflected in their relatively high level of intelligence and their ability to learn new behaviors. Q: Reflected in their relatively high level of intelligence and their ability to learn new behaviors, what organs tend to be relatively large in primates? A:

OPTIONS:
- lungs
- hearts
- kidneys
- brains

A:
brains
