Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: The Scientific Revolution occurred in Europe. This was the beginning of modern Western science. Many scientific advances were made during this time. Copernicus proposed that the sun, not Earth, is the center of the solar system. Choices: - Newton - Galileo - janus - copernicus A:
copernicus

Question: Q: What kind of compound, contained in coffee and alcohol, increases urine volume? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Diuretics and Fluid Volume A diuretic is a compound that increases urine volume. Three familiar drinks contain diuretic compounds: coffee, tea, and alcohol. The caffeine in coffee and tea works by promoting vasodilation in the nephron, which increases GFR. Alcohol increases GFR by inhibiting ADH release from the posterior pituitary, resulting in less water recovery by the collecting duct. In cases of high blood pressure, diuretics may be prescribed to reduce blood volume and, thereby, reduce blood pressure. The most frequently prescribed anti-hypertensive diuretic is hydrochlorothiazide. It inhibits the Na+/ Cl symporter in the DCT and collecting duct. The result is a loss of Na+ with water following passively by osmosis. Osmotic diuretics promote water loss by osmosis. An example is the indigestible sugar mannitol, which is most often administered to reduce brain swelling after head injury. However, it is not the only sugar that can produce a diuretic effect. In cases of poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, glucose levels exceed the capacity of the tubular glucose symporters, resulting in glucose in the urine. The unrecovered glucose becomes a powerful osmotic diuretic. Classically, in the days before glucose could be detected in the blood and urine, clinicians identified diabetes mellitus by the three Ps: polyuria (diuresis), polydipsia (increased thirst), and polyphagia (increased hunger). Choices: - anabolic - acid - additive - diuretic A:
Answer: diuretic

*Question*
Q: What reaction means, literally, "splitting with water"? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Esters are neutral compounds, unlike the acids from which they are formed. In typical reactions, the alkoxy (OR) group of an ester is replaced by another group. One such reaction is hydrolysis, literally "splitting with water. " The hydrolysis of esters is catalyzed by either an acid or a base. Acidic hydrolysis is simply the reverse of esterification. The ester is heated with a large excess of water containing a strong-acid catalyst. Like esterification, the reaction is reversible and does not go to completion. Choices: - aqueous - hydroxis - fission - hydrolysis A:
**Answer**
hydrolysis

*Question*
Q: What kind of light ranges from red to violet? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Visible Light The range of photon energies for visible light from red to violet is 1.63 to 3.26 eV, respectively (left for this chapter's Problems and Exercises to verify). These energies are on the order of those between outer electron shells in atoms and molecules. This means that these photons can be absorbed by atoms and molecules. A single photon can actually stimulate the retina, for example, by altering a receptor molecule that then triggers a nerve impulse. Photons can be absorbed or emitted only by atoms and molecules that have precisely the correct quantized energy step to do so. For example, if a red photon of frequency f encounters a molecule that has an energy step,. Choices: - infrared light - x rays - ultraviolet light - visible light A:
**Answer**
visible light
