Answer the following question given this paragraph: Amino groups are found within amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. Q: Amino groups are found within amino acids, nicknamed the building blocks of what? Choices: - lipids - protons - carbohydrates - proteins A:
proteins
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Electron Configurations of Ions We have seen that ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons. A cation (positively charged ion) forms when one or more electrons are removed from a parent atom. For main group elements, the electrons that were added last are the first electrons removed. For transition metals and inner transition metals, however, electrons in the s orbital are easier to remove than the d or f electrons, and so the highest ns electrons are lost, and then the (n 1)d or (n 2)f electrons are removed. An anion (negatively charged ion) forms when one or more electrons are added to a parent atom. The added electrons fill in the order predicted by the Aufbau principle. Q: Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose what? Choices: - mass - protons - neutrons - electrons A:
A: electrons
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Carbohydrates are biochemical compounds that include sugars, starches, and cellulose. They contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, and they are used mainly for energy by living things. Q: Biochemical compounds that include sugars, starches, and cellulose are examples of what? Choices: - electrolytes - lipids - proteins - carbohydrates A:
Answer: carbohydrates

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Carbon taxes are taxes placed on products that produce carbon dioxide. An example of this is gasoline for your car. The taxes encourage people to use less fossil fuel. This naturally reduces carbon dioxide emissions. Q: What do you call taxes placed on products that produce carbon dioxide? Choices: - pollution tax - chemical tax - emission tax - carbon taxes A:
**Answer**
carbon taxes
(Q).
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Respiratory Rate and Control of Ventilation Breathing usually occurs without thought, although at times you can consciously control it, such as when you swim under water, sing a song, or blow bubbles. The respiratory rate is the total number of breaths, or respiratory cycles, that occur each minute. Respiratory rate can be an important indicator of disease, as the rate may increase or decrease during an illness or in a disease condition. The respiratory rate is controlled by the respiratory center located within the medulla oblongata in the brain, which responds primarily to changes in carbon dioxide, oxygen, and pH levels in the blood. The normal respiratory rate of a child decreases from birth to adolescence. A child under 1 year of age has a normal respiratory rate between 30 and 60 breaths per minute, but by the time a child is about 10 years old, the normal rate is closer to 18 to 30. By adolescence, the normal respiratory rate is similar to that of adults, 12 to 18 breaths per minute. Q: The normal respiratory rate per minute in adult humans is? Choices: - 6-12 breaths - 0-6 breaths - 18-24 breaths - 12-18 breaths A:
(A).
12-18 breaths
