Answer the following question given this paragraph: Type 2 diabetes is much more common than type 1 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes occurs when body cells no longer respond normally to insulin. The pancreas still makes insulin, but the cells of the body can't use it. Being overweight and having high blood pressure increase the chances of developing type 2 diabetes. This type of diabetes usually develops in adulthood. However, it is becoming more common in teens and children because more young people are overweight now than ever before. Q: Which type of diabetes is more common? Choices: - gestational diabetes - juvenile diabetes - type 1 - type 2 A:
type 2
Answer the following question given this paragraph: To help digest the large amount of plant material, the stomach of the ruminants is a multi-chambered organ, as illustrated in Figure 34.8. The four compartments of the stomach are called the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. These chambers contain many microbes that break down cellulose and ferment ingested food. The abomasum is the "true" stomach and is the equivalent of the monogastric stomach chamber where gastric juices are secreted. The four-compartment gastric chamber provides larger space and the microbial support necessary to digest plant material in ruminants. The fermentation process produces large amounts of gas in the stomach chamber, which must be eliminated. As in other animals, the small intestine plays an important role in nutrient absorption, and the large intestine helps in the elimination of waste. Q: How many stomach compartments do ruminants have? Choices: - five - two - seven - four A:
four
Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Bacterial contamination in our food often makes the news. There are many bacteria present on raw food, especially raw meat. Campylobacter (pictured above), salmonella, and other microorganisms can be found, even after cooking if the meat has not been sufficiently exposed to the heat. Ionizing radiation can be used to disrupt the DNA-RNA-protein synthesis cycle that allows the bacteria to reproduce. Cobalt-60 is a common radiation source, as is cesium-137. But, just to be safe, order that burger well-done. Q: What kind of radiation can be used to disrupt the dna-rna protein synthesis cycle that allows bacteria to reproduce? Choices: - microwave - non-ionizing - infrared - ionizing A:
A: ionizing
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Q: The pancreatic hormones insulin and glucagon maintain glucose homeostasis by tightly regulating the synthesis and breakdown of what? Choices: - lipids - enzyme - pathway - glycogen A:
Answer: glycogen

S. , for example, more than 99 percent of tall-grass prairies have been lost. Other causes of extinction today include:. Q: Connected to agriculture, forestry, mining, and urbanization, what is the single biggest cause of extinction today? Choices: - freshwater loss - hunting - global warming - habitat loss A:
(A).
habitat loss
