Q: The heat capacity of an object depends on its chemical composition and what other property? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: If a swimming pool and wading, both full of water at the same temperature were subjected to the same input of heat energy, the wading pool would certainly rise in temperature more quickly than the swimming pool. The heat capacity of an object depends both on its mass and its chemical composition. Because of its much larger mass, the swimming pool of water has a larger heat capacity than the bucket of water. Choices: - volume - concentrations - weight - mass A:
mass

Brightly colored poison dart frogs have toxins in their skin . Public Domain. Choices: - spores - acid - poison - toxins A:
toxins

Q: The primary output of the basal nuclei is to the thalamus, which relays that output to where? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Thalamus The thalamus is a collection of nuclei that relay information between the cerebral cortex and the periphery, spinal cord, or brain stem. All sensory information, except for the sense of smell, passes through the thalamus before processing by the cortex. Axons from the peripheral sensory organs, or intermediate nuclei, synapse in the thalamus, and thalamic neurons project directly to the cerebrum. It is a requisite synapse in any sensory pathway, except for olfaction. The thalamus does not just pass the information on, it also processes that information. For example, the portion of the thalamus that receives visual information will influence what visual stimuli are important, or what receives attention. The cerebrum also sends information down to the thalamus, which usually communicates motor commands. This involves interactions with the cerebellum and other nuclei in the brain stem. The cerebrum interacts with the basal nuclei, which involves connections with the thalamus. The primary output of the basal nuclei is to the thalamus, which relays that output to the cerebral cortex. The cortex also sends information to the thalamus that will then influence the effects of the basal nuclei. Choices: - effect cortex - Back cortex - suffering cortex - cerebral cortex A:
cerebral cortex

Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Physical changes are changes in the physical properties of matter but not in the makeup of matter. An example of a physical change is glass breaking. Choices: - reversible - thermal - chemical - physical A:
physical
