Answer the following question given this paragraph: The Uterus and Cervix The uterus is the muscular organ that nourishes and supports the growing embryo (see Figure 27.14). Its average size is approximately 5 cm wide by 7 cm long (approximately 2 in by 3 in) when a female is not pregnant. It has three sections. The portion of the uterus superior to the opening of the uterine tubes is called the fundus. The middle section of the uterus is called the body of uterus (or corpus). The cervix is the narrow inferior portion of the uterus that projects into the vagina. The cervix produces mucus secretions that become thin and stringy under the influence of high systemic plasma estrogen concentrations, and these secretions can facilitate sperm movement through the reproductive tract. Q: What is the muscular organ that nourishes and supports the growing embryo? Choices: - fallopian tube - stomach - ovary - uterus A:
uterus

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Power Consumed at Rest The rate at which the body uses food energy to sustain life and to do different activities is called the metabolic rate. The total energy conversion rate of a person at rest is called the basal metabolic rate (BMR) and is divided among various systems in the body, as shown in Table 7.4. The largest fraction goes to the liver and spleen, with the brain coming next. Of course, during vigorous exercise, the energy consumption of the skeletal muscles and heart increase markedly. About 75% of the calories burned in a day go into these basic functions. The BMR is a function of age, gender, total body weight, and amount of muscle mass (which burns more calories than body fat). Athletes have a greater BMR due to this last factor. Q: The rate at which the body uses food energy to sustain life and to do different activities is called the what? Choices: - hormonal rate - calorie rate - life cycle - metabolic rate A:
(Answer)
metabolic rate
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The lithosphere-asthensophere divisions are based on mechanical properties. Q: The lithosphere-asthensophere divisions are based on what? Choices: - mechanical compounds - elemental properties - constant properties - mechanical properties A:
Ans: mechanical properties
(Q).
Answer the following question given this paragraph: The atoms that make up matter are in constant motion, so they have kinetic energy. All that motion gives matter thermal energy. Thermal energy is defined as the total kinetic energy of all the atoms that make up an object. It depends on how fast the atoms are moving and how many atoms the object has. Therefore, an object with more mass has greater thermal energy than an object with less mass, even if their individual atoms are moving at the same speed. You can see an example of this in Figure below . Q: What kind of energy constitutes the total kinetic energy of all the atoms that make up an object? Choices: - kinetic energy - phenomena energy - atmospheric energy - thermal energy A:
(A).
thermal energy
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Fish were the first vertebrates to evolve. The earliest fish lived in the water, and modern fish are still aquatic. Q: What were the first vertebrates to evolve? Choices: - snail - trees - shark - fish A:

Ans:fish
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Transpiration occurs when plants release water vapor through leaf pores called stomata (see Figure below ). The water is a product of photosynthesis. Q: What occurs when plants release water vapor through stomata (leaf pores)? Choices: - inhalation - evaporation - crystallization - transpiration A:
transpiration
