Answer the following question given this paragraph: The chain of amino acids keeps growing until a stop codon is reached. Then the chain is released from the ribosome. Q: What happens to a chain of amino acids after it reaches a stop codon? Choices: - metabolism begins - digestion stops - stays in ribosome - released from the ribosome A:
released from the ribosome
Answer the following question given this paragraph: In the predator-prey example, one factor limits the growth of the other factor. As the prey population decreases, the predator population begins to decrease as well. The prey population is a limiting factor. A limiting factor limits the growth or development of an organism, population, or process. Q: What limits the growth or development of an organism, population, or process? Choices: - decreasing factor - limiting membrane - mutation factor - limiting factor A:
limiting factor
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Untreated diabetes may damage capillaries in the kidneys so the nephrons can no longer filter blood. This is called kidney failure. The only cure for kidney failure is to receive a healthy transplanted kidney from a donor. Until that happens, a patient with kidney failure can be kept alive by artificially filtering the blood through a machine. This is called hemodialysis. You can see how it works in Figure below . Q: What's caused by damaged capillaries in the kidneys so the nephrons can no longer filter blood? Choices: - bacteria failure - sponge failure - colon failure - kidney failure A:
A: kidney failure
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Living things are made of matter. In fact, matter is the "stuff" of which all things are made. Anything that occupies space and has mass is known as matter. Matter, in turn, consists of chemical substances. A chemical substance is a material that has a definite chemical composition. It is also homogeneous, so the same chemical composition is found uniformly throughout the substance. A chemical substance may be an element or a chemical compound. Q: What is the 'stuff' that all things are made of? Choices: - minerals - metal - plasma - matter A:
Answer: matter

Which of the conditions are the following two patients most likely to have? Patient A has symptoms including weight gain, cold sensitivity, low heart rate and fatigue. Patient B has symptoms including weight loss, profuse sweating, increased heart rate and difficulty sleeping. Q: What is the condition in which the thyroid gland is overactive is known as? Choices: - susceptibility - hypothyroidism - hepatic - hyperthyroidism A:
**Answer**
hyperthyroidism
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The solution to the last part of the example shows that speed is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the tube, making for large effects when radius varies. We can blow out a candle at quite a distance, for example, by pursing our lips, whereas blowing on a candle with our mouth wide open is quite ineffective. In many situations, including in the cardiovascular system, branching of the flow occurs. The blood is pumped from the heart into arteries that subdivide into smaller arteries (arterioles) which branch into very fine vessels called capillaries. In this situation, continuity of flow is maintained but it is the sum of the flow rates in each of the branches in any portion along the tube that is maintained. The equation of continuity in a more general form becomes . Q: In the body, what essential substance is pumped from the heart into arteries and then eventually into capillaries? Choices: - spinal fluid - water - lymphatic Fluid - blood A:
A: blood
