input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: 7. Like the Richter scale, the moment magnitude scale is logarithmic. The 2011 Tohoku earthquake in Japan was 9.0 and did tremendous damage. A few months earlier, an 8.8 struck Chile and did much less damage. Why?. Q: What type of scale is the richter scale? A:
OPTIONS:
- dimensional
- algorithmic
- asymmetric
- logarithmic
output: logarithmic

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Muscle tissue consists of cells that can contract, or shorten. Examples include skeletal muscle, which is attached to bones and makes them move. Other types of muscle include cardiac muscle, which makes the heart beat, and smooth muscle, which is found in other internal organs. Q: What kind of muscle is responsible for making the human heart beat? A:

OPTIONS:
- deltoid
- teres minor
- respiratory muscle
- cardiac muscle

A: cardiac muscle

input: OPTIONS:
- an photon
- an electron
- a neutron
- an ion Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: An ion is an atom or group of bonded atoms that has a positive or negative charge. Ions are formed when an atom gains or loses electrons from its valence shell ( Figure below ). This process causes an imbalance between the number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons, so the overall ion will carry a net positive or negative charge. Q: What is an atom or group of bonded atoms that has a positive or negative charge? A:
A:
output: an ion

- food trees
- food webs

Answer: food webs

Problem: OPTIONS:
- unstable , or experimental
- slow , or radioactive
- destroyed
- unstable, or radioactive
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The strong nuclear force works only over very short distances. As a result, it isn't effective if the nucleus gets too big. As more protons are added to the nucleus, the electromagnetic force of repulsion between them gets stronger, while the strong nuclear force of attraction between them gets weaker. This puts an upper limit on the number of protons an atom can have and remain stable. If atoms have more than 83 protons, the electromagnetic repulsion between them is greater than the strong nuclear force of attraction between them. This makes the nucleus unstable, or radioactive, so it breaks down. The following video discusses the strong nuclear force and its role in the atom. The video also introduces the weak nuclear force, which is described next. Q: If the electromagnetic repulsion between protons is greater than the strong nuclear force of attraction between them, what do they become? A:
Answer: unstable, or radioactive
