Answer the following question given this paragraph: Thermal pollution raises the temperature of water. It is commonly caused by power plants and factories. The change in temperature can kill fish and other water organisms. Q: What type of pollution is generated by power plants and factories that can directly raise the temperature of water? Choices: - atmospheric pollution - Space Pollution - variable pollution - thermal pollution A:
thermal pollution

Answer the following question given this paragraph: nylon: Human-made fabric. Material is made from hydrocarbons found in petroleum products. It is found in a number of plastic utensils. Taking advantages of its strength and light weight, nylon is a component of ropes, fishing nets, tents, and parachutes. Q: What strong and lightweight manmade material is derived from hydrocarbons and used in ropes, tents and parachutes? Choices: - styrofoam - cellophane - aluminum - nylon A:
(Answer)
nylon
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Leaf Structure and Function The outermost layer of the leaf is the epidermis; it is present on both sides of the leaf and is called the upper and lower epidermis, respectively. Botanists call the upper side the adaxial surface (or adaxis) and the lower side the abaxial surface (or abaxis). The epidermis helps in the regulation of gas exchange. It contains stomata (Figure 30.24): openings through which the exchange of gases takes place. Two guard cells surround each stoma, regulating its opening and closing. Q: The outermost layer of the leaf is the epidermis; it is present on both sides of the leaf and is called the upper and lower epidermis, respectively. botanists call the upper side the adaxial surface (or adaxis) and the lower side this? Choices: - dorsal surface - posterior surface - anterior surface - abaxial surface (or abaxis) A:
Ans: abaxial surface (or abaxis)
(Q).
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Resistors in Series: All resistors are connected end to end. There is only one river, so they all receive the same current. But since there is a voltage drop across each resistor, they may all have different voltages across them the sum of the voltage drops will equal the total voltage of the circuit. The more resistors in series the more rocks in the river, so the less current that flows. Q: Resistors connected end to end are said to be in what? Choices: - parallel - groups - lines - series A:
(A).
series
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Eutherians are the most widespread of the mammals, occurring throughout the world. There are several groups of eutherians, including Insectivora, the insect eaters; Edentata, the toothless anteaters; Rodentia, the rodents; Chiroptera, the bats; Cetacea, the aquatic mammals including whales; Carnivora, carnivorous mammals including dogs, cats, and bears; and Primates, which includes humans. Eutherian mammals are sometimes called placental mammals, because all species have a complex placenta that connects a fetus to the mother, allowing for gas, fluid, waste, and nutrient exchange. While other mammals may possess a less complex placenta or briefly have a placenta, all eutherians have a complex placenta during gestation. Primates Order Primates of class Mammalia includes lemurs, tarsiers, monkeys, and the apes, which include humans. Non-human primates live primarily in tropical or subtropical regions of South America, Africa, and Asia. They range in size from the mouse lemur at 30 grams (1 ounce) to the mountain gorilla at 200 kilograms (441 pounds). The characteristics and evolution of primates are of particular interest to us as they allow us to understand the evolution of our own species. All primate species have adaptations for climbing trees, as they all descended from tree-dwellers, although not all species are arboreal. This arboreal heritage of primates resulted in hands and feet that are adapted for brachiation, or climbing and swinging through trees. These adaptations include, but are not limited to 1) a rotating shoulder joint, 2) a big toe that is widely separated from the other toes and thumbs that are widely separated from fingers (except humans), which allow for gripping branches, and 3) stereoscopic vision, two overlapping visual fields, which allows for the depth perception necessary to gauge distance. Other characteristics of primates are brains that are larger than those of many other mammals, claws that have been modified into flattened nails, typically only one offspring per pregnancy, and a... Q: Why are eutherian mammals sometimes called placental mammals? Choices: - identical placental connection - reacts placental connection - minor placental connection - complex placental connection A:

Ans:complex placental connection
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Magma that cools underground forms intrusions ( Figure below ). Usually this magma is very viscous felsic magma. This magma does not rise easily and so cools slowly underground. Intrusions become land formations if they are exposed at the surface by uplift and erosion. Q: What does magma that cools underground form? Choices: - anomalies - plates - cracks - intrusions A:
intrusions
