Question: Please answer correctly the following question related to the paragraph below. Given Indiana does indeed shut down many of its factories, will this result in a higher or lower contribution of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere? Indiana has decided it wants to do its best to stop contributing to global warming. The first place the government decides to look is at the number of factories that use fossil fuels in production. They plan to shut down many of them in the coming years. Hint: Carbon dioxide is the most significant long-lived greenhouse gas in Earth's atmosphere. Since the Industrial Revolution anthropogenic emissions primarily from use of fossil fuels and deforestation have rapidly increased its concentration in the atmosphere, leading to global warming. Carbon dioxide also causes ocean acidification because it dissolves in water to form carbonic acid.
Answer: lower

Question: Please answer correctly the following question related to the paragraph below. Which student learned less about signs of inflammation? Two medical students learned about the human body's defense against pathogens. Niles learned about the body's first line of defense, while Bill learned more about the inflammatory response. Hint: The body's second line of defense against pathogens includes the inflammatory response. If bacteria enter the skin through a scrape, the area may become red, warm, and painful. These are signs of inflammation. Inflammation is one way the body reacts to infections or injuries. Inflammation is caused by chemicals that are released when skin or other tissues are damaged. The chemicals cause nearby blood vessels to dilate, or expand. This increases blood flow to the damaged area, which makes the area red and slightly warm. The chemicals also attract white blood cells called neutrophils to the wound and cause them to leak out of blood vessels into the damaged tissue.
Answer: Niles

Question: Please answer correctly the following question related to the paragraph below. Will making the surface area of iron larger increase or decrease how fast it rusts? Andy is participating in this years science fair. He is testing how fast metal takes to rust. He rakes 3 pieces of iron one is a cube, and the other is a sheet both weighing the same. It takes the cube almost a week to fully rust but the sheet only takes 2 days. The only difference between the two is that the sheet has more surface area. He tries this again with a cylinder so the surface area is larger than the cube but smaller than the sheet and it takes about 4 days to fully rust. Hint: When a solid substance is involved in a chemical reaction, only the matter at the surface of the solid is exposed to other reactants. If a solid has more surface area, more of it is exposed and able to react. Therefore, increasing the surface area of solid reactants increases the reaction rate. Look at the hammer and nails pictured in the Figure below . Both are made of iron and will rust when the iron combines with oxygen in the air. However, the nails have a greater surface area, so they will rust faster.
Answer:
increase
