input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: When a sarcomere shortens, some regions shorten whereas others stay the same length. A sarcomere is defined as the distance between two consecutive Z discs or Z lines; when a muscle contracts, the distance between the Z discs is reduced. The H zonethe central region of the A zonecontains only thick filaments and is shortened during contraction. The I band contains only thin filaments and also shortens. The A band does not shortenit remains the same lengthbut A bands of different sarcomeres move closer together during contraction, eventually disappearing. Thin filaments are pulled by the thick filaments toward the center of the sarcomere until the Z discs approach the thick filaments. The zone of overlap, in which thin filaments and thick filaments occupy the same area, increases as the thin filaments move inward. Q: The distance between two consecutive z discs or z lines is called what? A:
OPTIONS:
- contractile
- ligule
- radius
- sarcomere
output: sarcomere

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Enzymes increase the rate of chemical reactions by reducing the amount of activation energy needed for reactants to start reacting. One way this can happen is modeled in the Figure below . Enzymes aren't changed or used up in the reactions they catalyze, so they can be used to speed up the same reaction over and over again. Each enzyme is highly specific for the particular reaction is catalyzes, so enzymes are very effective. A reaction that would take many years to occur without its enzyme might occur in a split second with the enzyme. Enzymes are also very efficient, so waste products rarely form. Q: What can be used to accelerate the rate at which chemical reactions occur? A:

OPTIONS:
- hormones
- protein
- components
- enzymes

A: enzymes

input: OPTIONS:
- plasma apparatus
- receptor apparatus
- secretion apparatus
- golgi apparatus Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The Golgi Apparatus The Golgi apparatus is responsible for sorting, modifying, and shipping off the products that come from the rough ER, much like a post-office. The Golgi apparatus looks like stacked flattened discs, almost like stacks of oddly shaped pancakes. Like the ER, these discs are membranous. The Golgi apparatus has two distinct sides, each with a different role. One side of the apparatus receives products in vesicles. These products are sorted through the apparatus, and then they are released from the opposite side after being repackaged into new vesicles. If the product is to be exported from the cell, the vesicle migrates to the cell surface and fuses to the cell membrane, and the cargo is secreted (Figure 3.15). Q: What "apparatus" is responsible for sorting, modifying, and shipping off the products that come from the rough endoplasmic reticulum? A:
A:
output: golgi apparatus

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Soil is a renewable resource. Sometimes it is lost faster than it can be replaced. Q: What kind of resource is soil? A:

OPTIONS:
- nonrenewable
- finite
- viable
- renewable

Answer: renewable

Problem: OPTIONS:
- air
- cold
- acid
- water
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Potassium is a soft, silvery metal that ignites explosively in water. It easily loses its one valence electron to form positive potassium ions (K + ), which are needed by all living cells. Potassium is so important for plants that it is found in almost all fertilizers, like the one shown here. Potassium is abundant in Earth's crust in minerals such as feldspar. Q: Potassium is a soft, silvery metal that ignites explosively in what? A:
Answer: water

Answer the following question given this paragraph: The canister on the left contains a gas at a certain pressure. The attached air pump is then used to double the amount of gas in the canister. Since the canister cannot expand, the increased number of air molecules will strike the inside walls of the canister twice as frequently as they did before. The result is that the pressure inside the canister doubles. As you might imagine, if more and more air is continually added to a rigid container, it may eventually burst. Reducing the number of molecules in a rigid container has the opposite effect and the pressure decreases. Q: Reducing the number of molecules in a rigid container causes what to decrease? A:

OPTIONS:
- velocity
- demand
- energy
- pressure

Answer:
pressure
