Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure 33.3 Apodemes are ingrowths on arthropod exoskeletons to which muscles attach. The apodemes on this crab leg are located above and below the fulcrum of the claw. Contraction of muscles attached to the apodemes pulls the claw closed. Q: What are ingrowths on arthropod exoskeletons to which muscles attach? Choices: - joints - pores - rods - apodemes A:
apodemes
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Electromagnetic force is a force of attraction or repulsion between all electrically charged particles. This force is transferred between charged particles of matter by fundamental force-carrying particles called photons. Because of electromagnetic force, particles with opposite charges attract each other and particles with the same charge repel each other. Q: What do we call the force of attraction or repulsion between electrically charged particles? Choices: - chemical force - mechanical force - gravitational pull - electromagnetic force A:
electromagnetic force
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Many meteorites are remnants of the earliest material that formed in the solar system. Q: What astronomical phenomenon is often comprised of remnants of the earliest material that formed in the solar system? Choices: - asteroids - particles - comets - meteorites A:
A: meteorites
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Plant viruses can seriously disrupt crop growth and development, significantly affecting our food supply. They are responsible for poor crop quality and quantity globally, and can bring about huge economic losses annually. Others viruses may damage plants used in landscaping. Some viruses that infect agricultural food plants include the name of the plant they infect, such as tomato spotted wilt virus, bean common mosaic virus, and cucumber mosaic virus. In plants used for landscaping, two of the most common viruses are peony ring spot and rose mosaic virus. There are far too many plant viruses to discuss each in detail, but symptoms of bean common mosaic virus result in lowered bean production and stunted, unproductive plants. In the ornamental rose, the rose mosaic disease causes wavy yellow lines and colored splotches on the leaves of the plant. Q: Plant viruses can seriously disrupt crop growth and development, significantly affecting our what? Choices: - air supply - fuel supply - harvest supply - food supply A:
Answer: food supply

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Nails The nail bed is a specialized structure of the epidermis that is found at the tips of our fingers and toes. The nail body is formed on the nail bed, and protects the tips of our fingers and toes as they are the farthest extremities and the parts of the body that experience the maximum mechanical stress (Figure 5.13). In addition, the nail body forms a back-support for picking up small objects with the fingers. The nail body is composed of densely packed dead keratinocytes. The epidermis in this part of the body has evolved a specialized structure upon which nails can form. The nail body forms at the nail root, which has a matrix of proliferating cells from the stratum basale that enables the nail to grow continuously. The lateral nail fold overlaps the nail on the sides, helping to anchor the nail body. The nail fold that meets the proximal end of the nail body forms the nail cuticle, also called the eponychium. The nail bed is rich in blood vessels, making it appear pink, except at the base, where a thick layer of epithelium over the nail matrix forms a crescent-shaped region called the lunula (the "little moon"). The area beneath the free edge of the nail, furthest from the cuticle, is called the hyponychium. It consists of a thickened layer of stratum corneum. Q: The nail bed is a specialized structure of the epidermis that is found at the tips of our what? Choices: - fingers, nails, and scalp - only nails - only fingers - fingers and toes A:
**Answer**
fingers and toes
