Answer the following question given this paragraph: A: It is always very hot deep underground where molten rock originates. The high temperatures give rock enough energy to melt and remain in a molten state. Underground rock in this state is called magma. Q: Underground rock in a molten state is called? Choices: - igneous - gaseous - lava - magma A:
magma
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Interspecific competition often leads to extinction. The species that is less well adapted may get fewer of the resources that both species need. As a result, members of that species are less likely to survive, and the species may go extinct. Q: What kind of competition often leads to extinction because the species that is less well adapted gets fewer of the resources that both species need? Choices: - intraspecific competition - parasitism - mutualism - interspecific competition A:
interspecific competition
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: What often relies on cooperation between the motor and autonomic nervous systems? Choices: - ketosis - thermoregulation - hypothalamus - homeostasis A:
A: homeostasis
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Homeostasis, or the maintenance of constant conditions in the body, is a fundamental property of all living things. In the human body, the substances that participate in chemical reactions must remain within narrows ranges of concentration. Too much or too little of a single substance can disrupt your bodily functions. Because metabolism relies on reactions that are all interconnected, any disruption might affect multiple organs or even organ systems. Water is the most ubiquitous substance in the chemical reactions of life. The interactions of various aqueous solutionssolutions in which water is the solventare continuously monitored and adjusted by a large suite of interconnected feedback systems in your body. Understanding the ways in which the body maintains these critical balances is key to understanding good health. Q: The maintenance of constant conditions in the body is also known as what? Choices: - consciousness - mononucleosis - hypothesis - homeostasis A:
Answer: homeostasis

Answer the following question given this paragraph: El Nino and La Nina bring about dramatic changes in climate for a year or two. In some locations, one brings rain and the other brings drought. In California, for example, El Nino years are full of snow and rain. La Nina years tend toward drought. These variations can bring tremendous changes to living creatures. Humans are also affected; for example, erosion from storms may be very high some years. Q: What kind of weather change do la nina years usually bring? Choices: - heat - Mass amounts of snow - moisture - drought A:
**Answer**
drought

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Convection is the transfer of heat by a current. Convection happens in a liquid or a gas. Air near the ground is warmed by heat radiating from Earth's surface. The warm air is less dense, so it rises. As it rises, it cools. The cool air is dense, so it sinks to the surface. This creates a convection current, like the one in Figure below . Convection is the most important way that heat travels in the atmosphere. Q: What is the transfer of heat by a current? Choices: - radiation - combustion - diffusion - convection A:
**Answer**
convection
