Answer the following question given this paragraph: Bacteria that cause foodborne illnesses include Salmonella , a bacterium found in many foods, including raw and undercooked meat, poultry, dairy products, and seafood. Campylobacter jejuni is found in raw or undercooked chicken and unpasteurized milk. Several strains of E. coli can cause illnesses, and are found in raw or undercooked hamburger, unpasteurized fruit juices and milk, and even fresh produce. Vibrio is a bacterium that may contaminate fish or shellfish. Listeria has been found in raw and undercooked meats, unpasteurized milk, soft cheeses, and ready-to-eat deli meats and hot dogs. Most of these bacterial illnesses can be prevented with proper cooking of food and washing of hands. Q: Most of these bacterial illnesses can be prevented with proper cooking of food and washing what? Choices: - vegetables - hair - teeth - hands A:
hands
Answer the following question given this paragraph: The peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of all the nervous tissue that lies outside the central nervous system. It is shown in yellow in Figure below . It is connected to the central nervous system by nerves. A nerve is a cable-like bundle of axons. Some nerves are very long. The longest human nerve is the sciatic nerve. It runs from the spinal cord in the lower back down the left leg all the way to the toes of the left foot. Like the nervous system as a whole, the peripheral nervous system also has two divisions: the sensory division and the motor division. Q: Which nervous system consists of all the nervous tissue that lies outside the central nervous system? Choices: - auxiliary nervous system - significant nervous system - function nervous system - peripheral nervous system A:
peripheral nervous system
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Nuclear reactors use fission reactions to vaporize water. The resulting steam is used to drive a turbine, which generates electricity. Q: Nuclear reactors use fission reactions to vaporize water, producing steam to drive a turbine and generate what? Choices: - light - oil - fuel - electricity A:
A: electricity
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The urinary system has roles you may be well aware of: cleansing the blood and ridding the body of wastes probably come to mind. However, there are additional, equally important functions played by the system. Take for example, regulation of pH, a function shared with the lungs and the buffers in the blood. Additionally, the regulation of blood pressure is a role shared with the heart and blood vessels. What about regulating the concentration of solutes in the blood? Did you know that the kidney is important in determining the concentration of red blood cells? Eighty-five percent of the erythropoietin (EPO) produced to stimulate red blood cell production is produced in the kidneys. The kidneys also perform the final synthesis step of vitamin D production, converting calcidiol to calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D. If the kidneys fail, these functions are compromised or lost altogether, with devastating effects on homeostasis. The affected individual might experience weakness, lethargy, shortness of breath, anemia, widespread edema (swelling), metabolic acidosis, rising potassium levels, heart arrhythmias, and more. Each of these functions is vital to your well-being and survival. The urinary system, controlled by the nervous system, also stores urine until a convenient time for disposal and then provides the anatomical structures to transport this waste liquid to the outside of the body. Failure of nervous control or the anatomical structures leading to a loss of control of urination results in a condition called incontinence. This chapter will help you to understand the anatomy of the urinary system and how it enables the physiologic functions critical to homeostasis. It is best to think of the kidney as a regulator of plasma makeup rather than simply a urine producer. As you read each section, ask yourself this question: "What happens if this does not work?" This question will help you to understand how the urinary system maintains homeostasis and affects all the other systems of the body and the... Q: Which system in your body stores urine and is controlled by the nervous system? Choices: - cardiovascular system - muscular system - digestive system - urinary system A:
Answer: urinary system

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The girls in the picture above make up a small samplethere are only four of them. In scientific investigations, samples may include hundreds or even thousands of people or other objects of study. Especially when samples are very large, it's important to be able to summarize their overall characteristics with a few numbers. That's where descriptive statistics come in. Descriptive statistics are measures that show the central tendency, or center, of a sample or the variation in a sample. Q: In scientific investigations, descriptive statistics are useful for summarizing the characteristics of large what? Choices: - organisms - questions - tissues - samples A:
**Answer**
samples
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Solids and liquids are phases that have their own unique properties. Q: Solids and liquids are phases of matter that have their own unique what? Choices: - volumes - temperatures - masses - properties A:
A: properties
