Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Figure 12.7 Statues made from carbonate compounds such as limestone and marble typically weather slowly over time due to the actions of water, and thermal expansion and contraction. However, pollutants like sulfur dioxide can accelerate weathering. As the concentration of air pollutants increases, deterioration of limestone occurs more rapidly. (credit: James P Fisher III). Q: Deterioration of limestone occurs more rapidly as the concentration of what increases? A:
OPTIONS:
- ground pollutants
- water pollutants
- ocean pollutants
- air pollutants
Answer: air pollutants

input with options: Answer the following question given this paragraph: You don't have to be a musician to know that playing a wind instrument like the trumpet takes a lot of air. Having healthy lungs is necessary to play a trumpet or other wind instrument. The lungs are part of the respiratory system. Q: What is necessary in a person who wishes to play wind instruments? A:
OPTIONS:
- strong hands
- vocal cords
- powerful lips
- healthy lungs
output: healthy lungs

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Rickets is softening of the bones in children that occurs because bones do not have enough calcium. Rickets can lead to fractures and bowing of the leg bones, which is illustrated in the Figure below . Q: Lack of what mineral causes rickets? A:

OPTIONS:
- zinc
- potassium
- magnesium
- calcium

A: calcium

input: OPTIONS:
- nasal
- nuclei
- ametic
- vertebrae Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Cervical Vertebrae Typical cervical vertebrae, such as C4 or C5, have several characteristic features that differentiate them from thoracic or lumbar vertebrae (Figure 7.25). Cervical vertebrae have a small body, reflecting the fact that they carry the least amount of body weight. Cervical vertebrae usually have a bifid (Y-shaped) spinous process. The spinous processes of the C3C6 vertebrae are short, but the spine of C7 is much longer. You can find these vertebrae by running your finger down the midline of the posterior neck until you encounter the prominent C7 spine located at the base of the neck. The transverse processes of the cervical vertebrae are sharply curved (U-shaped) to allow for passage of the cervical spinal nerves. Each transverse process also has an opening called the transverse foramen. An important artery that supplies the brain ascends up the neck by passing through these openings. The superior and inferior articular processes of the cervical vertebrae are flattened and largely face upward or downward, respectively. The first and second cervical vertebrae are further modified, giving each a distinctive appearance. The first cervical (C1) vertebra is also called the atlas, because this is the vertebra that supports the skull on top of the vertebral column (in Greek mythology, Atlas was the god who supported the heavens on his shoulders). The C1 vertebra does not have a body or spinous process. Instead, it is ring-shaped, consisting of an anterior arch and a posterior arch. The transverse processes of the atlas are longer and extend more laterally than do the transverse processes of any other cervical vertebrae. The superior articular processes face upward and are deeply curved for articulation with the occipital condyles on the base of the skull. The inferior articular processes are flat and face downward to join with the superior articular processes of the C2 vertebra. The second cervical (C2) vertebra is called the axis, because it serves as the axis for rotation when turning the head... Q: Compared to thoracic and lumbar types, the cervical type of what structures carry the least amount of body weight? A:
A:
output: vertebrae

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Particles with opposite electric charges attract each other. This explains why negative electrons orbit the positive nucleus. Particles with the same electric charge repel each other. This means that the positive protons in the nucleus push apart from one another. So why doesn't the nucleus fly apart? An even stronger forcecalled the strong nuclear forceholds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus. You can learn more about these forces in the nucleus by watching the video at this URL:. Q: Particles with what type of electric charges attract each other? A:

OPTIONS:
- similar
- same
- simple
- opposite

Answer: opposite

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Chemical reactions that release energy are called exothermic reactions . An example is the combustion of methane described at the beginning of this lesson. In organisms, exothermic reactions are called catabolic reactions . Catabolic reactions break down molecules into smaller units. An example is a decomposition reaction, such as the breakdown of glucose molecules for energy. Exothermic reactions can be represented by the general chemical equation:. Q: What type of reactions are chemical reactions that release energy? A:

OPTIONS:
- sulfuric reactions
- biochemical reactions
- ozonic reactions
- exothermic reactions

A:
exothermic reactions
