Given a scientific passage and an answer, generate a question for the given answer.
One example: Passage: A frameshift mutation is a deletion or insertion of one or more nucleotides that changes the reading frame of the base sequence. Deletions remove nucleotides, and insertions add nucleotides. Consider the following sequence of bases in RNA:. Answer: nucleotides.
Solution is here: A frameshift mutation is a deletion or insertion of one or more of what that changes the reading frame of the base sequence?
Explanation: The science passage defines frame mutation and the main compoment here is nucleotides. Hence the generated question is apt.

Now, solve this: Passage: Like salt water in the ocean, many solutions are normally in the liquid state. However, matter in any state can form a solution. An alloy, which is a mixture of a metal with one or more other substances, is a solid solution at room temperature. For example, the alloy bronze is a solution of copper and tin. Matter in the gaseous state can also form solutions. Answer: metal
Solution:
An alloy is a mixture of what with one or more other substances?
