Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Note the word science in that last sentence. Earth Science is a science, or maybe it's made up of a lot of sciences. But what is science? Most people think of science as a bunch of knowledge. And it is. But science is also a way of knowing things. It's different from other ways of knowing because it is based on a method that relies on observations and data. Science can't say how many angels can dance on the end of a pin because that question can't be tested. In fact, science can't even say if there are such things as angels for the same reason. For something to be science, it must be testable. And scientists are the people who do those tests. Q: A fact or question is only considered science if it has what property? A:
OPTIONS:
- it is interesting
- it is mineral
- it is believable
- it is testable
Answer: it is testable

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: What branch of science is the study of human origins? A:
OPTIONS:
- biology
- pharmacology
- palaeobiology
- paleoanthropology
output: paleoanthropology

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: The name of a monatomic cation is simply the name of the element followed by the word ion. Thus, Na+ is the sodium ion, Al3+ is the aluminum ion, Ca2+ is the calcium ion, and so forth. We have seen that some elements lose different numbers of electrons, producing ions of different charges (Figure 3.3 "Predicting Ionic Charges"). Iron, for example, can form two cations, each of which, when combined with the same anion, makes a different compound with unique physical and chemical properties. Thus, we need a different name for each iron ion to distinguish Fe2+ from Fe3+. The same issue arises for other ions with more than one possible charge. There are two ways to make this distinction. In the simpler, more modern approach, called the Stock system, an ion's positive charge is indicated by a roman numeral in parentheses after the element name, followed by the word ion. Thus, Fe2+ is called the iron(II) ion, while Fe3+ is called the iron(III) ion. This system is used only for elements that form more than one common positive ion. We do not call the Na+ ion the sodium(I) ion because (I) is unnecessary. Sodium forms only a 1+ ion, so there is no ambiguity about the name sodium ion. The second system, called the common system, is not conventional but is still prevalent and used in the health sciences. This system recognizes that many metals have two common cations. The common system uses two suffixes (-ic and -ous) that are appended to the stem of the element name. The -ic suffix represents the greater of the two cation charges, and the -ous suffix represents the lower one. In many cases, the stem of the element name comes from the Latin name of the element. Table 3.2 "The Common System of Cation Names" lists the elements that use the common system, along with their respective cation names. Table 3.2 The Common System of Cation Names. Q: The name of a monatomic cation is simply the name of the element followed by this word? A:

OPTIONS:
- amine
- laser
- bond
- ion

A: ion

input: OPTIONS:
- endocrinologists
- vaccinologists
- virologists
- immunologists Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Immunologist The variations in peripheral proteins and carbohydrates that affect a cell's recognition sites are of prime interest in immunology. These changes are taken into consideration in vaccine development. Many infectious diseases, such as smallpox, polio, diphtheria, and tetanus, were conquered by the use of vaccines. Immunologists are the physicians and scientists who research and develop vaccines, as well as treat and study allergies or other immune problems. Some immunologists study and treat autoimmune problems (diseases in which a person's immune system attacks his or her own cells or tissues, such as lupus) and immunodeficiencies, whether acquired (such as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or AIDS) or hereditary (such as severe combined immunodeficiency, or SCID). Immunologists are called in to help treat organ transplantation patients, who must have their immune systems suppressed so that their bodies will not reject a transplanted organ. Some immunologists work to understand natural immunity and the effects of a person's environment on it. Others work on questions about how the immune system affects diseases such as cancer. In the past, the importance of having a healthy immune system in preventing cancer was not at all understood. To work as an immunologist, a PhD or MD is required. In addition, immunologists undertake at least 23 years of training in an accredited program and must pass an examination given by the American Board of Allergy and Immunology. Immunologists must possess knowledge of the functions of the human body as they relate to issues beyond immunization, and knowledge of pharmacology and medical technology, such as medications, therapies, test materials, and surgical procedures. Q: What is the term for physicians and scientists who research and develop vaccines and treat and study conditions ranging from allergies to aids? A:
A:
output: immunologists
