Part 1. Definition
Given a list of steps and an additional step, determine where the step fits into the original list of steps. A correct answer, correctly places the given step into the set of steps so that it creates a new plausible set of steps. Output must be formatted as 'After step n', where n is the step number after which the given additional step is to be inserted.
Part 2. Example
Steps: (1) Solar radiation reaches Earth's atmosphere (2) Some is reflected back into space (3) The rest of the energy is absorbed by land and oceans, heating the Earth (4) Some of this heat is trapped by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (5) Human activities such as burning fuel are increasing the amount of greenhouses gases (6) This causes more heat radiation to stay trapped in our atmosphere (7) The Earth's temperature rises
Where does the following step fit into the given list of steps: Heat radiates from Earth to space
Answer: After step 3.
Explanation: The correct answer is 'After step 3'. The given step is 'Heat radiates from Earth to Space'. Step 3 introduces a new concept of generated heat. Step 4 mentions that the heat is trapped into the atmosphere. In order for the heat to get to the atmosphere, the heat must radiate from Earth to space. Therefore, the correct answer is 'After step 3.'
Part 3. Exercise
Steps: (1) The saliva breaks down the chemicals in the food a bit, which helps make the food mushy and easy to swallow (2) Your tongue helps out, pushing the food around while you chew with your teeth (3) The esophagus moves food from the back of your throat to your stomach (4) Strong muscles in the walls of the stomach and gastric juices break down food in your stomach
Where does the following step fit into the given list of steps: Your stomach moves the food into the intestines to complete digestion
Answer:
After step 4.
