input: OPTIONS:
- instinct
- acquired trait
- genetic disorder
- inherited trait Now, answer this question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Human earlobes may be attached or free. You inherited the particular shape of your earlobes from your parents. Inherited traits are influenced by genes, which are passed on to offspring and future generations. Things not influenced by genes are not passed on to your offspring. Natural selection only operates on traits like earlobe shape that have a genetic basis, not on traits that are acquired, like a summer tan. Q: The shape of earlobes is an example of what kind of trait, which is influenced by genes and passed along through generations? A:
A:
output: inherited trait

Problem: OPTIONS:
- nitrogen group
- iron group
- manganese group
- the boron group
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Group 13 of the periodic table is also called the boron group because boron (B) is the first element at the top of the group (see Figure below ). Boron is also the only metalloid in this group. The other four elements in the groupaluminum (Al), gallium (Ga), indium (In), and thallium (Tl)are all metals. Group 13 elements have three valence electrons and are fairly reactive. All of them are solids at room temperature. Q: Group 13 of the periodic table is also called what? A:
Answer: the boron group

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Bacteria change nitrogen gas from the atmosphere to nitrogen compounds that plants can absorb. Q: What changes nitrogen gas from the atmosphere to nitrogen compounds that plants can absorb? A:
OPTIONS:

bacteria

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Chloride ions are important in neutralizing positive ion charges in the body. If chloride is lost, the body uses bicarbonate ions in place of the lost chloride ions. Thus, lost chloride results in an increased reabsorption of bicarbonate by the renal system. Q: Why does the body react to a loss of chloride ions? A:
OPTIONS:
- increased tricarbonate reabsorption
- decreased bicarbonate reabsorption
- decreased tricarbonate reabsorption
- increased bicarbonate reabsorption

Answer:
increased bicarbonate reabsorption
