Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Molecular compounds are inorganic compounds that take the form of discrete molecules . Examples include such familiar substance as water (H 2 O) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ). These compounds are very different from ionic compounds like sodium chloride (NaCl). Ionic compounds are formed when metal atoms lose one or more of their electrons to nonmetal atoms. The resulting cations and anions are electrostatically attracted to each other. Q: What are inorganic compounds that take the form of discrete molecules called? A:
OPTIONS:
- magnetic compounds
- ionic compounds
- functional compounds
- molecular compounds
Answer: molecular compounds

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: In the above equation for pressure, force is expressed in Newtons (N) and area is expressed in square meters (m 2 ). Therefore, pressure is expressed in N/m 2 , which is the SI unit for pressure. This unit is also called the Pascal (Pa) . It is named for the scientist Blaise Pascal whose discoveries about pressure in fluids led to a law of the same name. Pressure may also be expressed in the kilopascal (kPa), which equals 1000 Pascals. For example, the correct air pressure inside a mountain bike tire is usually about 200 kPa. Q: What unit of pressure is named for the scientist whose discoveries about pressure in fluids led to a law of the same name? A:
OPTIONS:
- ohm
- newton
- joule
- pascal
output: pascal

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure below shows how phospholipid molecules are arranged in a cell membrane. One end (the head) of each phospholipid molecule is polar and attracts water. This end is called hydrophilic ("water loving"). The other end (the tail) is nonpolar and repels water. This end is called hydrophobic ("water hating"). The nonpolar tails are on the inside of the membrane. The polar heads are on the outside of the membrane. These differences in polarity allow some molecules to pass through the membrane while keeping others out. You can see how this works in the video at the URL below. Q: The end of the phospholipid molecule that is polar and attracts water is called what? A:

OPTIONS:
- cytosolic
- hydrophobic
- magnetic
- hydrophilic

A: hydrophilic

input: OPTIONS:
- dopamine and melanin
- anabolic and metabolic
- insulin and estrogen
- insulin and glucagon Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Hormonal Regulation of Metabolism Blood glucose levels vary widely over the course of a day as periods of food consumption alternate with periods of fasting. Insulin and glucagon are the two hormones primarily responsible for maintaining homeostasis of blood glucose levels. Additional regulation is mediated by the thyroid hormones. Q: What are the two hormones primarily responsible for maintaining homeostasis of blood glucose levels? A:
A:
output: insulin and glucagon

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The most noticeable magnetic activity of the Sun is the appearance of sunspots. Sunspots are cooler, darker areas on the Sun's surface ( Figure below ). Sunspots occur in an 11 year cycle. The number of sunspots begins at a minimum. The number gradually increases to the maximum. Then the number returns to a minimum again. Q: What is the name for the cooler, darker areas on the sun's surface? A:

OPTIONS:
- corona
- aurora borealis
- anomalies
- sunspots

Answer: sunspots

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Partial lunar eclipses occur at least twice a year, but total lunar eclipses are less common. The Moon glows with a dull red coloring during a total lunar eclipse ( Figure below ). Q: What is the minimum number of times a partial lunar eclipse will occur each year? A:

OPTIONS:
- six
- 11
- five
- two

A:
two
