Answer the following question given this paragraph: The four planets closest to the SunMercury, Venus, Earth, and Marsare the inner planets or terrestrial planets ( Figure below ). They are similar to Earth. All are solid, dense, and rocky. None of the inner planets has rings. Compared to the outer planets, the inner planets are small. They have shorter orbits around the Sun and they spin more slowly. Venus spins backward and spins the slowest of all the planets. Q: Where are the terrestrial planets located, in relation to the sun? Choices: - farthest - To the left - To the right - closest A:
closest

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Transition metals are superior conductors of heat as well as electricity. They are malleable, which means they can be shaped into sheets, and ductile, which means they can be shaped into wires. They have high melting and boiling points, and all are solids at room temperature, except for mercury (Hg), which is a liquid. Transition metals are also high in density and very hard. Most of them are white or silvery in color, and they are generally lustrous, or shiny. The compounds that transition metals form with other elements are often very colorful. You can see several examples in the Figure below . Q: Transition metals are superior conductors of heat as well as what else? Choices: - light - radiation - cold - electricity A:
electricity

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure 4.2 Ultimately, most life forms get their energy from the sun. Plants use photosynthesis to capture sunlight, and herbivores eat the plants to obtain energy. Carnivores eat the herbivores, and eventual decomposition of plant and animal material contributes to the nutrient pool. Q: Ultimately, most life forms get their energy from this? Choices: - heat - earth - food - sun A:
sun
