Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Major climate types are based on temperature and precipitation. Latitude plays an important role in determining the climate of a region. However, many other factors play a role in climate. Oceans and mountain ranges influence climate in the same ways worldwide ( Figure below ). You can see where the climate types are on the map, and then read about them below. Q: Latitude plays an important role in determining what in a region? Choices: - drought - landscape - migration - climate A:
A: climate

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Insects have six legs and a pair of antennae for sensing chemicals. They also have several eyes and specialized mouthparts for feeding. Q: Insect's antennae are useful for sensing what? Choices: - contaminants - microorganisms - sunlight - chemicals A:
A: chemicals

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: available; if arsenic is an essential trace mineral in human diets, it is probably required on the order of 50 ppb or less. A toxic dose of arsenic corresponds to about 7,000 ppb and higher, which is over 140 times the trace amount that may be required by the body. Thus, arsenic is not poisonous in and of itself. Rather, it is the amount that is dangerous: the dose makes the poison. Similarly, as much as water is needed to keep us alive, too much of it is also risky to our health. Drinking too much water too fast can lead to a condition called water intoxication, which may be fatal. The danger in water intoxication is not that water itself becomes toxic. It is that the ingestion of too much water too fast dilutes sodium ions, potassium ions, and other salts in the bloodstream to concentrations that are not high enough to support brain, muscle, and heart functions. Military personnel, endurance athletes, and even desert hikers are susceptible to water intoxication if they drink water but do not replenish the salts lost in sweat. As this example shows, even the right substances in the wrong amounts can be dangerous!. Q: Drinking too much water too fast can lead to what potentially fatal condition, which causes dangerous changes to salt levels? Choices: - inebriation - osmosis - drowning - water intoxication A:
A: water intoxication

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Sometimes muscles and tendons get injured when a person starts doing an activity before they have warmed up properly. A warm up is a slow increase in the intensity of a physical activity that prepares muscles for an activity. Warming up increases the blood flow to the muscles and increases the heart rate. Warmed-up muscles and tendons are less likely to get injured. For example, before running or playing soccer, a person might jog slowly to warm muscles and increase their heart rate. Even elite athletes need to warm up ( Figure below ). Q: Warming up your body before a workout does what to the blood flow? Choices: - reduces it - stops it - minimizes it - increases it A:
A: increases it
