input question: I read this background article the other day: Plants called epiphytes grow on other plants. They obtain moisture from the air and make food by photosynthesis. Most epiphytes are ferns or orchids that live in tropical or temperate rainforests (see Figure below ). Host trees provide support, allowing epiphyte plants to obtain air and sunlight high above the forest floor. Being elevated above the ground lets epiphytes get out of the shadows on the forest floor so they can get enough sunlight for photosynthesis. Being elevated may also reduce the risk of being eaten by herbivores and increase the chance of pollination by wind. I am facing a new situation today: Hawk and Brunt were two colleagues studying about plants. Later on, Hawk got specialized in normal plants, while Brunt decided to learn more about epiphytes. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which colleague studied less about plants that grow on other plants????
output answer: Hawk
I read this background article the other day: Atmospheric convection is the result of a parcel-environment instability, or temperature difference layer in the atmosphere. Different lapse rates within dry and moist air masses lead to instability. Mixing of air during the day which expands the height of the planetary boundary layer leads to increased winds, cumulus cloud development, and decreased surface dew points. Moist convection leads to thunderstorm development, which is often responsible for severe weather throughout the world. Special threats from thunderstorms include hail, downbursts, and tornadoes. I am facing a new situation today: Boone county experienced severe weather last week as a result of atmospheric convection. White county to the east experienced some rain but was sheltered from this phenomenon because of the mountain range. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which county experienced less different lapse rates within dry and moist air masses?
----
Answer: White
Q: 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. Its rate of loss has slowed with restrictions on pollutants, but it is still at risk. I am facing a new situation today: Planet Y and planet X were two inhabited planets in a nearby solar system. People from Planet X were living in harmony with nature, and didn't hurt the environment in any way. People on planet Y generated lots of air pollution, and destroyed their ozone layer by using inappropriate substances. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which planet had their atmosphere destroyed by air pollution?
A: planet Y
Question: I read this background article the other day: ANOVA generalizes to the study of the effects of multiple factors. When the experiment includes observations at all combinations of levels of each factor, it is termed factorial. Factorial experiments are more efficient than a series of single factor experiments and the efficiency grows as the number of factors increases.[45] Consequently, factorial designs are heavily used. I am facing a new situation today: Medication A was tested on 1000 people for 3 years and cured Disease X in 80% of those trials. However, Medication B was tested on 50 patients and cured Disease X in 90% of those trials. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which medication trial was less factorial, A or B?
Answer: B
[Q]: I read this background article the other day: When waves travel into areas of shallow water, they begin to be affected by the ocean bottom. The free orbital motion of the water is disrupted, and water particles in orbital motion no longer return to their original position. As the water becomes shallower, the swell becomes higher and steeper, ultimately assuming the familiar sharp-crested wave shape. After the wave breaks, it becomes a wave of translation and erosion of the ocean bottom intensifies. I am facing a new situation today: Two neighboring gulfs had different geographical features. South gulf has shallow water and is wider, while North gulf is quite deep. Both gulfs are exposed to intense wave activity throughout the year. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which gulf experiences less free orbital motion disruption when waves hit?
****
[A]: North
Problem: Given the question: I read this background article the other day: Sodium and potassium are two of the most important elements in living things. They are present mainly as positively charged ions dissolved in water. The sodium-potassium pump moves sodium ions (Na + ) out of the cell and potassium ions (K + ) into the cell. In both cases, the ions are moving from an area of lower to higher concentration. Energy in ATP is needed for this "uphill" process. Figure below shows how this pump works. Trace these steps from left to right in the figure I am facing a new situation today: Ben and Andy studied minerals and micro-nutrients. Ben studied more about magnesium, zinc and molybdenum, while his buddy Andy studied about sodium and potassium. Using the knowledge I acquired from the background article, how should I answer correctly the following question regarding my new situation: Which person studied more about Energy in ATP ?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The answer is:
Andy
