Answer the following question given this paragraph: Carbonate minerals are often found where seas once covered the land. Some carbonate minerals are very common. Calcite contains calcium, carbon, and oxygen. Have you ever been in a limestone cave or seen a marble tile? Calcite is in both limestone and marble. Azurite and malachite are also carbonate minerals. They contain copper instead of calcium. They are not as common as calcite. Malachite and azurite are used in jewelry; as you can see, they are very colorful ( Figure below ). Q: What type of minerals are often found where seas once covered the land? A:
OPTIONS:
- magnesium
- crystals
- sea salt
- carbonate

Answer: carbonate

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: All life relies on a relatively narrow range of pH, or acidity. That's because protein structure and function are very sensitive to pH. Air pollution can cause precipitation to become acidic. Nitrogen and sulfur oxides, mainly from motor vehicle exhaust and coal burning, create acids when they combine with water in the air. The acids lower the pH of precipitation, forming acid rain . If acid rain falls on the ground, it may damage soil and soil organisms. If it falls on plants, it may kill them (see Figure below ). If it falls into lakes, it lowers the pH of the water and kills aquatic organisms. Q: When the ph of precipitation is lowered because of air pollution, what results? A:
OPTIONS:
- abnormal rain
- climate change
- sleet
- acid rain
Answer: acid rain

input: OPTIONS:
- ocean plates
- lava plates
- distinct plates
- tectonic plates Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Tectonic plates are large segments of the Earth's crust that move slowly. Suppose that one such plate has an average speed of 4.0 cm/year. (a) What distance does it move in 1 s at this speed? (b) What is its speed in kilometers per million years? 10. (a) Refer to Table 1.3 to determine the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. Then calculate the average speed of the Earth in its orbit in kilometers per second. (b) What is this in meters per second?. Q: What are the large segments of the earth's crust that ordinarily move very slowly? A:
A:
output: tectonic plates
