input question: I read this background article the other day: Often, foreign exchange controls can result in the creation of black markets to exchange the weaker currency for stronger currencies. This leads to a situation where the exchange rate for the foreign currency is much higher than the rate set by the government, and therefore creates a shadow currency exchange market. As such, it is unclear whether governments have the ability to enact effective exchange controls.[1] I am facing a new situation today: Pakistan tried to control the foreign exchange market and India didn't. By creating the foreign exchange control department, Pakistan tried to stop the devaluation of their currency. India chose to not interfere and let the exchange market regulate itself. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which country had a smaller shadow market as a result of their actions????
output answer: India
I read this background article the other day: Weather is a set of all the phenomena occurring in a given atmospheric area at a given time. Most weather phenomena occur in the troposphere, just below the stratosphere. Weather refers, generally, to day-to-day temperature and precipitation activity, whereas climate is the term for the average atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time. When used without qualification, "weather" is understood to be the weather of Earth. I am facing a new situation today: David was interested in climate change issues. He realized that to understand climate change issues he first needed to distinguish between the terms weather and climate. To that end, he labeled weather as term A. Then he labeled climate as term B. He found it easier to understand their differences in that way. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Would term A change less or more frequently than term B?

Answer: more
Q: I read this background article the other day: Rainfall in an area is important because it influences the rate of weathering. More rain means that more rainwater passes through the soil. The rainwater reacts chemically with the particles. The top layers of soil are in contact with the freshest water, so reactions are greatest there. High rainfall increases the amount of rock that experiences chemical reactions. High rainfall may also carry material away. This means that new surfaces are exposed. This increases the rate of weathering. I am facing a new situation today: Rob is an environmental scientist. He is looking at two samples of soil, sample A and sample B. Sample A is from Amazon Rain-forest, where they get one of the highest rainfall in the world. Sample B is from the Atacama Desert, where they get one of the lowest rainfall in the world. He needs to determine the properties of these samples. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which sample would show increased rate of weathering, sample A or sample B?
A: sample A
Question: I read this background article the other day: Fish reproduce sexually. They lay eggs that can be fertilized either inside or outside of the body. In most fish, the eggs develop outside of the mother's body. In the majority of these species, fertilization also takes place outside the mother's body. The male and female fish release their gametes into the surrounding water, where fertilization occurs. Female fish release very high numbers of eggs to increase the chances of fertilization. I am facing a new situation today: Two brothers learned about animal reproduction, Tim learned about fish reproduction, while Bill learned about mammal reproduction. They both received grade A. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which brother studied more about female fish releasing very high numbers of eggs?
Answer: Tim
[Q]: I read this background article the other day: Acromyrmex heyeri is a species of leaf-cutter ant, a New World ant of the subfamily Myrmicinae of the genus Acromyrmex. Acromyrmex heyeri workers construct the colonies nest by thatching together cut grass. At temperatures ranging from 2030 C, workers created more openings in the nest thatch as the internal nest temperature goes up as a method of temperature regulation for the colony. The workers will close openings in the nest thatch as the air humidity surrounding the nest decreases to reduce water loss for the colony. I am facing a new situation today: In the ant world a war has been waged. Two rival groups of Acromyrmex heyeri ants, group A and group B, are battling each other to gain territory. The goal is to attack the rival group when they have more openings in their nest thatch. In battle day one group A territory had 5 C temperature. In battle day two group A territory had 22 C temperature. In battle day three group A territory had low air humidity. In battle day four group A territory had high air humidity. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which would be a better day for group B to attack group A, battle day three or battle day four?
****
[A]: battle day four
Problem: Given the question: I read this background article the other day: Unfortunately, the layer of good ozone is being destroyed by air pollution. The chief culprits are chlorine and bromine gases. They are released in aerosol sprays, coolants, and other products. Loss of ozone has created an ozone hole over Antarctica. Ozone depletion results in higher levels of UV radiation reaching Earth. In humans, this increases skin cancers and eye cataracts. It also disturbs the nitrogen cycle, kills plankton, and disrupts ocean food webs. The total loss of the ozone layer would be devastating to most life. It's rate of loss has slowed with restrictions on pollutants, but it is still at risk. I am facing a new situation today: Planet Earth and planet Mars both had breathable atmospheres and were inhabited by humans. People of Earth destroyed the ozone layer, people of mars were more careful and protected it. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which planet had fewer people using coolants?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The answer is:
Mars
