Answer the following question given this paragraph: The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain. It sits on top of the brain stem. The cerebrum controls functions that we are aware of, such as problem-solving and speech. It also controls voluntary movements, like waving to a friend. Whether you are doing your homework or jumping hurdles, you are using your cerebrum. Q: What is the largest part of the brain? Choices: - temporal lobe - hypothalamus - pituitary gland - cerebrum A:
cerebrum
Answer the following question given this paragraph: In some places, the oceanic crust comes up to a continent. The moving crust pushes that continent away from the ridge axis as well. If the moving oceanic crust reaches a deep sea trench, the crust sinks into the mantle. The creation and destruction of oceanic crust is the reason that continents move. Q: The creation and destruction of oceanic crust is the reason what moves? Choices: - animals - planets - oceans - continents A:
continents
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: A strike-slip fault is a dip-slip fault where the dip of the fault plane is vertical. Strike-slip faults result from shear stresses. If you stand with one foot on each side of a strike-slip fault, one side will be moving toward you while the other side moves away from you. If your right foot moves toward you, the fault is known as a right-lateral strike-slip fault. If your left foot moves toward you, the fault is a left-lateral strike-slip fault ( Figure below ). Q: What is a dip slip fault where the dip of the fault plane is vertical? Choices: - strike - theory - reverse slip - incline slip - strike-slip A:
A: strike-slip
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Human cells normally have two sets of chromosomes, one set inherited from each parent. There are 23 chromosomes in each set, for a total of 46 chromosomes per cell. Each chromosome in one set is matched by a chromosome of the same type in the other set, so there are actually 23 pairs of chromosomes per cell. Each pair consists of chromosomes of the same size and shape that also contain the same genes. The chromosomes in a pair are known as homologous chromosomes . Q: How many chromosomes are in each set? Choices: - 22 - 21 - 13 - 23 A:
Answer: 23

Answer the following question given this paragraph: To measure very small masses, scientists use electronic balances, like the one in the Figure below . This type of balance also makes it easier to make accurate measurements because mass is shown as a digital readout. In the picture, the balance is being used to measure the mass of a white powder on a plastic weighing tray. The mass of the tray alone would have to be measured first and then subtracted from the mass of the tray and powder together. The difference between the two masses is the mass of the powder alone. Q: What instrument, with a digital readout, is used by scientists to measure very small masses? Choices: - mixed balance - mechanical balance - common balance - electronic balance A:
(A).
electronic balance
