Answer the following question given this paragraph: Temperature does not change during a phase change. The process of a liquid becoming a gas is called boiling; the process of a solid becoming a gas is called sublimation. Q: The process of a liquid becoming a gas is called boiling, while the process of a solid becoming a gas is called what? Choices: - vaporization - Boiling - Melting - sublimation A:

A: external pressure
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Cancer is a disease in which cells grow out of control and form abnormal masses of cells. It is generally caused by mutations in genes that regulate the cell cycle. Because of the mutations, cells with damaged DNA are allowed to divide without limits. Cancer genes can be inherited. You can learn more about hereditary cancer by watching the video at the following link: http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=LWk5FplsKwM (4:29). Q: What is the disease in which cells grow out of control and form abnormal masses? Choices: - bronchitis - diabetes - HIV - cancer A:
Answer: cancer

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Mid-latitude cyclones form at the polar front. Two very different air masses blow past each other in opposite directions. The Coriolis effect causes winds to strike the polar front at an angle. Warm and cold fronts form next to each other. Q: Which effect causes winds to strike the polar front at an angle? Choices: - axial tilt - Lake Effect - centrifugal effect - coriolis effect A:
**Answer**
coriolis effect
Answer the following question given this paragraph: The ions in ionic compounds are arranged in rigid three-dimensional patterns called crystal lattices. The crystal lattice that is formed is a characteristic property of a given compound. Q: The ions in ionic compounds are arranged in rigid three-dimensional patterns called what? Choices: - core lattices - lattice groups - pattern lattices - crystal lattices A:
