Answer the following question given this paragraph: Tarsal Bones The posterior half of the foot is formed by seven tarsal bones (Figure 8.19). The most superior bone is the talus. This has a relatively square-shaped, upper surface that articulates with the tibia and fibula to form the ankle joint. Three areas of articulation form the ankle joint: The superomedial surface of the talus bone articulates with the medial malleolus of the tibia, the top of the talus articulates with the distal end of the tibia, and the lateral side of the talus articulates with the lateral malleolus of the fibula. Inferiorly, the talus articulates with the calcaneus (heel bone), the largest bone of the foot, which forms the heel. Body weight is transferred from the tibia to the talus to the calcaneus, which rests on the ground. The medial calcaneus has a prominent bony extension called the sustentaculum tali ("support for the talus") that supports the medial side of the talus bone. Q: The posterior half of the foot is formed by seven tarsal bones. the most superior of these bones is called? Choices: - metatarsal - patella - calcareous - talus A:
talus

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Materials that have high resistance to electric current are called electric insulators . Wood, rubber, and plastic are examples of electric insulators. Dry air is also an electric insulator. Q: What are materials that have high resistance to electric current called? Choices: - power insulators - motion reducers - cooling insulators - electric insulators A:
(Answer)
electric insulators
Ques: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The addition of electrons always results in an anion that is larger than the parent atom. When the electrons outnumber the protons, the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is decreased. The electron cloud also spreads out because more electrons results in greater electron-electron repulsions. Notice that the group 16 ions are larger than the group 17 ions. The group 16 elements each add two electrons while the group 17 elements add one electron per atom for form the anions. Q: Electrons always result in what? Choices: - A HYPER-PIGMENTATION THAT IS LARGER THAN THE PARENT ATOM - an contraposition that is larger than the parent atom - an dissociative that is larger than the parent atom - an anion that is larger than the parent atom A:
Ans: an anion that is larger than the parent atom

Answer the following question given this paragraph: A food chain is a simple diagram that shows one way energy flows through an ecosystem. You can see an example of a food chain in Figure below . Producers form the base of all food chains. The consumers that eat producers are called primary consumers. The consumers that eat primary consumers are secondary consumers. This chain can continue to multiple levels. Q: What term is used to describe a simple diagram that shows one way energy flows through an ecosystem? Choices: - water cycle - food pyramid - fuel chain - food chain A:
(A).
food chain
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Stratum Corneum The stratum corneum is the most superficial layer of the epidermis and is the layer exposed to the outside environment (see Figure 5.5). The increased keratinization (also called cornification) of the cells in this layer gives it its name. There are usually 15 to 30 layers of cells in the stratum corneum. This dry, dead layer helps prevent the penetration of microbes and the dehydration of underlying tissues, and provides a mechanical protection against abrasion for the more delicate, underlying layers. Cells in this layer are shed periodically and are replaced by cells pushed up from the stratum granulosum (or stratum lucidum in the case of the palms and soles of feet). The entire layer is replaced during a period of about 4 weeks. Cosmetic procedures, such as microdermabrasion, help remove some of the dry, upper layer and aim to keep the skin looking "fresh" and healthy. Q: The dead, dry stratum corneum is the most superficial layer of what and is the layer exposed to the outside environment? Choices: - intestinal - lungs - dermis - epidermis A:

Ans:epidermis
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: Diffusion is an effective transport mechanism over the spatial scales typically found at what level? Choices: - electromagnetic - molecular - atom - cellular A:
